    I'm shocked. This is why I'm all for Spence seeking a rematch against Crawford. Boxing isn't always so predictable. I love this sweet science!

      I've never cared for Eubank, but he is a solid B level talent. Smith a plodder and Eubank looked drained and out of it first fight. Difference this fight wasn't Smith being any different, Eubank looked fresh and worked behind the jab. He is just a better fighter with more skill and athleticism.

      Smith honestly got lucky and it was also an elbow. I give a crap about either guy.

        In mine and Derick James opinion, it might have been the 'Bo Mac effect'.

          his weight cut v benn & the elbow smith landed on him to daze him

          neither happened in this fight

          ironically it was smith whos prep was interfered with, he got an injury, not sure how much it affected him tho, it might have

            Will watch this fight later on but I'm guessing he had difficulty making weight the first fight

              Smith has a great career ahead of him as a punching bag. He couldn't throw a combination if his family was held hostage till he did so.

                eubank had to make 157 i think for benn, he looked awful if i remember in a pic

                then another camp for smith i think, not a good prep for the smith fight

                  Well so much for the boxing experts...none of them went for Eubank. Looks like Smith was struggling from the injury that delayed the fight.

                  World title fight next for Eubank. Surely he should get Smith's place in the WBO.

                      Good win for Eubank getting his payback but Smith had absolutely nothing in there.
