Chris Eubank Jr delivers fresh verdict on retirement ahead of Liam Smith rematch

Chris Eubank Jr will refuse to consider retiring from boxing - even if he loses his summer rematch with Liam Smith.

Eubank Jr suffered a devastating defeat to grudge rival Smith earlier this year after being dropped and stopped in a powerful display from the Liverpudlian. Despite the loss, the 33-year-old had access to a contracted rematch clause, but first explored his options including a rescheduled showdown with Conor Benn.

However after electing to move away from a shot at Benn, Eubank Jr has decided to activate his clause and pursue redemption in a second fight on June 17 at the Manchester Arena. Defeat would be the fourth of his professional career and would see him further away than ever from the middleweight world title picture.
