    I did not say much on this fight, mainly because as he fight drew closer? I was kind becoming ever slightly more neutral 'Although I was backing Eubank Junior more to win'.

    Reminiscent to Khan vs Brook. I wanted Khan to beat Brook, but I also would of been content if Brook won.

    So overall, that is a really big win for Liam Smith. On the sly this is his biggest win in my opinion, this win opens up many more opportunities for him.

    Solid fighter, Brook vs Smith is another really good fight.

    I thought Eubank Junior was actually boxing well, with his jab, movement and even when he slightly went through the gears offensively.

    A bit of a strange stoppage, as I don't really class Smith as a monster puncher 'And Eubank Junior has been inside the ring with numerous stronger fighters and bigger power punchers than Liam Smith'.

    Eubank Junior if he is to fight on, will have to get back into another fight as soon as possible.

      Damn, the only thing Eubank Jr picked up from Roy was his chin

        Fair play to Smith I picked Eubank to win but that was a clean shot and a good stoppage. I wouldn't mind seeing Smith vs GGG I don't think he would beat him but I think at this stage he can still put up a good fight. Eubank looked decent before the stoppage but he was getting caught with shots, that hands down style eventually gets you caught and Smith was the one to do it.

          What an Incredible victory by Liam Smith? He is definitely a force to be reckoned with at 160. As for Chris Eubank, I think that it may be a good idea for him to move back up to 168 or retire because he looked very old, slow and weak in there tonight. Chances are he probably had to cut too much weight. He appeared dehydrated. Conor Benn beats the snot of this version of Chris Eubank.

                Cong****, Liam. He's not a great boxer but he is a darn good pressure fighter when the going gets rough.

                  The fact that you even responded with that response is reaching. Eubank didn’t even land a clear cut punch in the second round. The third was debatable with Eubank doing nothing but landing 2 uppercuts in the last few seconds? So you emphasizing CLEARLY, clearly makes you a clown
                  You need to rewatch the fight if that's all you think he landed. Most observers had Eubank up 2-1 at the time of the stoppage.

                    Cong**** to Liam, excellent win. Eubank Jr lost before but never ko'd or stopped.

                    Apparently there's a rematch clause. I'm not Chris would do better in a rematch. He had a good third round, but Smith took it well. Also, Eubank was flicking the jab out a lot but not landing it much.

                    Liam is in line for a title shot, he's right back in the mix. But yeah, Chris is a good fighter but not much chance against Canelo, whom he spoke of fighting a while back.

                    Even GGG, in his forties, but that power would be too much.
