Smith’s made a fool himself with the ill-conceived, casual homophobic bit. Eubank handled it well I thought.

Scousers gonna Scouse :lol:

Eubanks response at the weigh in was top notch. A rainbow armband with CAPTAIN on it. Fair play Chris.

The vipleague stream that's good for West Ham games also has a stream for the boxing. A good one.

I’m a huge fan of the Smith bros, although like everyone, I think Liam let himself and his family down with his pre fight homophobic jibes.

I’ve never truly warmed to Eubank Jnr, think he’d do himself a lot of favours if he dropped the smug facade.

Anyway, I’ve got them even after 2.

No one saw that coming. No one.

Eubank still don’t know where he is!

Liam (and all of the Smiths bar Callum) have been underrated. All great technicians.

Shows Eubanks level too. Exposed like he was against a ‘passed his best’ George Groves.

Looks like it. No chance he takes the rematch. Surely?

Not sure how he was allowed to continue after the knockdown.

I’m glad the amazing chin myth seems to have been put to bed anyway.

He’s European level, nothing more. Smith isn’t even a huge puncher.
