Chris Eubank Jr has confirmed that he has activated his rematch clause to fight Liam Smith.
The Brighton-based boxer confirmed the news on social media on Tuesday morning, just over three weeks after he was beaten by Smith at the AO Arena in Manchester.
Smith stopped Eubank Jr with brutal and clinical authority in the fourth round of their middleweight contest last month. Speculation has been rife since that Eubank would activate the rematch clause that was placed in the deal signed by both fighters last year.
