Fowler: 'I boxed clever'

Team England boxer Anthony Fowler has said that he 'boxed clever' in his victory over Scotland's Kieran Smith at the Commonwealth Games on Monday.

Fowler advanced into the quarter-finals of the middleweight division following a confident victory over Smith in Glasgow.

"I could have done another three rounds yet again. I was boxing clever, the last round there was not much going on because I was two rounds up and he had to come to me," he told Sports Mole.

"I was very impressed with him though, he gave it a good go and gave the crowd their money's worth tonight.

"I was up against it with the crowd and obviously the judges can be swayed, but I was landing big heavy shots and I've got a lot of respect for him taking them."

Fowler's next fight is on Wednesday.
