Darragh Foley Challenges Dalton Smith A 'Real Test' Awaited!
Australian-based boxer Darragh Foley has thrown down the gauntlet, urging Eddie Hearn to arrange a showdown with British Champion Dalton Smith. After a brief hiatus following his May defeat against Jack Catterall, Foley is eager to be the one to give Smith a "real test" in the ring. The 35-year-old is making noise on social media, indicating that it's high time for the Sheffield prospect to face a formidable opponent. Foley, known for his upset victory against Robbie Davies Jr in March 2023, believes he has what it takes to disrupt the predictions of future stardom surrounding Smith. Despite the loss to Catterall, Foley is keen on securing one last fight under his Matchroom contract, and he sees Smith as the ideal opponent. The Australian fighter is no stranger to causing surprises, having halted Davies Jr's title pursuit with a knockout win. Dalton Smith, a familiar name for Irish fight followers, is yet to experience Foley's challenge. The 26-year-old, often linked to Irish fighters like Sean McComb, has garnered praise from Hearn and others in the industry. However, Foley remains unconvinced and is eager to upset Hearn's plans by securing a bout with Smith instead of an in-house fight with Liverpool's Davies, as suggested by the promoter. Foley's bold callout and desire for a significant matchup have added an exciting twist to the super lightweight division. As the talks gain momentum, fight fans are anticipating whether Foley can indeed be the real test that Smith needs or if the British Champion will continue his ascent unscathed. #DarraghFoley #DaltonSmith #BoxingChallenge #MatchroomBoxing #FightTalks #UpcomingBout
