Liam Smith's highly-anticipated rematch with Chris Eubank Jr has been rescheduled for July 1 after the Liverpudlian sustained a minor injury during his training camp.
The contest was originally scheduled to take place at the Manchester Arena on Saturday, June 17 but Smith and his promoters, Boxxer, have now confirmed the event will be postponed by two weeks to allow the 34-year-old to recover from a niggling issue.
Smith beat Eubank Jr in devastating fashion during the first bout back in January, stopping the former WBA interim middleweight champion in the fourth round after a flurry of blows saw Eubank Jr TKO'd for the first time in his career.
