    For a professional athlete to let himself get 40lb over weight when he knows the rematch was signed is just indiscipline - and he's paid for it.

      Dont really know if smith went in there with fresh injury but he certainly didnt looked as well as agressive as other past fights ,good for him for taking L like a man, lets not forget they 1 even now 1 tko for each side. Cant disregard a third fight in near future.

        What interesting is that these two both put in their career-worst performances following intense weight cuts.

            I give Chris props for his changed tactics. True warrior. I think liams back was still shot he kept his head on the line and couldn't use any lateral movement whatsoever.

              Eubank is sitting pretty; he’s avenged a loss and now has a possible trilogy fight in the sidelines; he’s probably going to fight the egg guy next. Both options are probably lucrative. Liam’s the current loser, but even he has a wide open path.
