    Nice! Hopefully this time Eubank doesn't use only 50% of his skills.... His words.

      Hearn swore up and down that he was going to deliver a Conor Benn-Eubank Jr fight and that Eubank Jr.-Smith II wouldn’t happen.


      Maybe he should stop wasting time delivering self-serving lectures on the evils of influencer boxing and get stuff done. Where’s the big unveil of DAZN’s supposedly massive lineup of fall/winter fights? Why were Fury and Warren able to quietly get a massive deal with the Saudis done for the Ngannou fight while Hearn keeps waiting for official word on the supposed pot of Saudi gold for an AJ-Wilder fight - one that was first hyped for December and now may not happen until early 2024?

      Hearn needs to do fewer video interviews with groveling camera monkeys and focus on producing actual results.

        The ONLY reason Jr. is on PPV again is his daddies name , this kid has just been KO'd by an ageing light middle weight , why are people so gullible. PPV should be saved for decent fights, Crawford v Spence type , this is why the promoters are able to get away with this shyte.

              I'd much rather have Liam face a bigger name, but happy to watch Eubank suffer the same result. If not worse.

                  If this is such a easy fight for Smith, wouldn't you think Eubank Junior's critics would be all for it? Why don't they want to see Junior get stopped again?

                  I tell you why? Because deep down, Team Smith and Eubank Junior's critics know on some level 'That Smith's win vs Eubank Junior I is most likely as good as it gets'.

                  Liam Smith is a good solid fighter, but win or lose during is career 'When he has fought any fighter at a good level, the fights have always been a struggle'.

                  Smith struggled vs Liam Williams twice, and Anthony Fowler was beating him before he started to fatigue. Pretty much all of Smith's fights against any fighter at a good level win or lose, are struggles 'Fights were he has to come through heavy bombardment in order to win'.

                  The punch which decked Eubank Junior, for me was a anomaly. And I think there is definitive evidence out there that Eubank Junior was suffering from the chronic effects of weight draining himself for the Benn fight 'Which as a result decreased his overall durability'.

                  The punch was a anomaly, and overall it has embellished Liam Smith's entire performance vs Chris Eubank Junior 'The trajectory of the fight before that punch, looked to be going in the direction of the fight developing into a brutal battle of attrition type fight. And this is the type of fight I believe may happen in the rematch'.

                  For me the rematch is warranted, and I believe this fight is a great UK domestic match up etc.

                    eubank will surely do better than the first time, i think draining for eggman may have affected him a bit, he looked like a skeleton almost
