Eddie Hearn reveals Callum Smith Anfield world title fight hope after Bauderlique KO

Eddie Hearn has revealed he would like Callum Smith to fight at Anfield for the world light heavyweight title against Artur Beterbiev. It came after Smith knocked out Mathieu Bauderlique on Anthony Joshua's undercard in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.

Smith looked impressive against the Frenchman, who looked to throw bombs early on with Smith taking his time in the pocket and looking to simply outbox his opponent.

But with the Frenchman continuing to throw big shots, the Liverpudlian saw an opportunity and threw an excellent counter left to drop his opponent, before finishing him with a similar shot in the same round - getting the win in the fourth.
