Liam Smith and Chris Eubank Jr have both apologised for comments they made during the final press conference before their fight on Saturday night.
The pair launched personal attacks at each other, with Eubank the subject of homophobic taunts and Smith the subject of taunts about social class. The rivals have clashed throughout the build-up, disagreeing over past sparring encounters among other verbal exchanges.
During the exchange, Smith said: “Chris, you go on about girls, mate, has anybody in this room ever seen you with a girl? Have you got something to tell us? Because you’re 33. Do you want to tell us something? Because nobody in this room has ever seen you with a woman. Do you have something you want to tell us?”
