Comments Thread For: Liam Smith on Eubank Fight: 'I Feel the Weight [Cut] Killed Me'

[rudy]

He has become Leon Spinks

So smith knew he got this rematch lined up, he got injured and decided to grossly get out of shape? So much so it hindered his training camp and ability to perform? Errm whether thats true or not, no one to blame but yourself for that.

Agree with others on the thread. Liam's back injury obviously couldn't have helped, but, knowing that he couldn't train & that he had a fight coming up, he allowed his weight to climb to over 200lbs! Doesn't he have a set of scales in his house? He obviously doesn't have a salad bowl! Grossly unprofessional.

There are no excuses Mr Smith. You got yo ass kicked. You didn’t fight like a guy out of shape. You fought like the guy that you always were. A guy who is a front runner, tough…but could never take a body shot.

Excuse after excuse.

He got lucky in the first fight. Eubanks messed around with his weight and had a disrupted training camp due to the cancellation.

On form, Liam Smith isn't fit to carry his jockstrap and it showed.

His name is Eubank, not Eubanks

His name is Eubank, not Eubanks

US boxers or fans hear them often call Eubank, Eubanks. Or Eddie Hearn, Eddie Hearns. Must just like adding a S

Also random fact is Chris Eubank (Sr) real name was actually Chris Eubanks and he dropped the S. His 2 brothers still fought with the Eubanks name you can find them on boxrec.

If there was no rematch then people would forever being wrongly thinking Liam was just a better fighter and would always beat eubank.
Just like some think floyd would always best pac or nelo? Or Floyd's a better fighter as he has that win over them?

Losing and landing a KO shot is not a better fighter, schooling great fighters for 12 rounds is a far superior fighter, the way you construct things in your head is wack.

Your reasoning is distorted and toxic. I guess eubank being ktfo is more worthy of a rematch than pac, nelo and dlh were

This mf was claiming "im a 154 fighter and came up and beat you at 160 l" now hes claiming weight cut excuses

That really was a pathetic excuse.
