Timeline

1978

Ishé Oluwa Kamau Ali Smith (born July 22, 1978) is an American former professional boxer who competed from 2000 to 2019.

1996

In 1996 he made it to the finals of the US National Championships, losing a competitive match on points to Héctor Camacho Jr., and semifinals of the U.S. Olympic trials, losing on points to Zab Judah.

1999

In 1999, he lost on points in another close bout in the quarterfinals of the US National Championships to Larry Mosley, who went on to win the tournament.

Smith was a strong prospect early in his career, he won his first fourteen fights while facing generally strong opposition.

2001

In 2001, he faced Alfonso Gomez in his fourth pro fight (Alfonso's second pro fight).

Smith won via a controversial unanimous decision (due to a low-blow penalty against Gomez that was poorly called) in a four-round fight.

Later that year, he beat Norberto Bravo by unanimous decision.

2003

Most notably, in 2003 he dominated David "King" Estrada, a fellow hot prospect at the time, beating him by a wide unanimous decision.

2004

In 2004, Smith won his first belts (WBC Continental Welterweight title, WBO NABO Welterweight title, and USBA Welterweight title), beating the former world champion Randall Bailey by a controversial unanimous decision.

In an economical punching fight, Smith scored a knockdown in the second round and showed better defense, but Bailey was a bit more active throughout, particularly in the last three rounds with an effective jab.

There was little to separate the two men in terms of scoring the fight, but Smith won by scores of 116-111, 117-110, and 114-113.

Ishe took a chance and signed on to do The Contender reality show.

He was assigned as a roommate to his former adversary Alfonso Gomez.

On the show, he was placed on the West Coast team and fought his rival Ahmed Kaddour in the third episode's fight.

Smith won by unanimous decision against Kaddour in a tough fight.

Smith criticized Anthony Bonsante for fighting Brent Cooper, whom he did not think was an appropriate competitor.

Their bout had no bearing on Smith's standing in the competition.

When Juan de la Rosa was medically disqualified at the end of the first round fight, certain other boxers bought back Kaddour, a tactic employed to get under Smith's skin.

After Brinkley criticized Smith for speaking his mind too often, Brinkley selected the fighter to go against Sergio Mora.

Mora won over Smith in a split decision and was the tournament's eventual winner.

Smith faced his nemesis Bonsante in a "Fan Favorite Fight".

Despite suffering many illegal moves from a desperate Bonsante, Smith won by a wide unanimous decision.

Some of Smith's earlier challengers in the ring also appeared on The Contender, namely, Alfonso Gomez and Norberto Bravo.

Since appearing on The Contender, Smith has criticized the show's management company for trying to force him to fight Jesse Brinkley at a severe weight disadvantage for a relatively small fight purse.

A natural welterweight, Smith feels that he should have been allowed to drop back down to a lower weight class and fight more rounds against opponents outside The Contender in preparation for an eventual title shot, or be allowed out of the show's management contract as Contender contestants Ahmed Kaddour and Jimmy Lange, among others, have been.

Smith won his arbitration trial.

He left the Contender promotions and signed a contract with Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions.

Smith has been under Bernard Hopkins' guidance since joining that company.

2005

During his early career, he participated in the first season of the reality TV show The Contender in 2005.

Smith grew up in Nevada with his mother and siblings but never knew his father.

As an amateur Smith competed on the national stage for years.

2006

Smith was featured on a June 7, 2006, fight card promoted by Bernard Hopkins on ESPN Friday Night Fight, where he dominated his opponent Patrick Thompson through 10 rounds to get a unanimous decision.

He fought at 154 lbs, in the junior middleweight division, which is considered a division with many opportunities for young prospects.

2007

Smith fought Sechew Powell, a junior middleweight contender on February 17, 2007, and lost a unanimous decision, potentially halting his hopes of landing a title shot.

Smith lost the fight despite scoring a knock down.

After the decision was announced, many of Powell's hometown fans booed the decision.

The judges gave Powell eight out of ten rounds.

The fight was very slow as neither man wanted to let his hands go much, so the booing may have been for the lackluster nature of the fight.

2008

Smith lost a razor-close decision to Joel Julio on April 30, 2008.

2013

He held the IBF junior middleweight title in 2013, and is the first boxer from Las Vegas to become a professional world champion.
