Liam Smith won via an unlikely stoppage against Chris Eubank Jr in Manchester on Saturday night, securing a fourth round TKO at the AO Arena.
The fight was expected to be a tough ask for Smith, with the Liverpool born fighter stepping up to middleweight for the fight against Eubank who was expected to be more comfortable. They both weighed in at 11st 5lbs, with a fiery build-up as personal insults were exchanged.
However, the manner of victory with an incredible knockout from Smith brought the Manchester crowd to its feet, with many of the crowd having travelled from Liverpool for the fight. It was a fourth round stoppage from Smith, with the whole fight having been dominated by Smith as Eubank never really got going.
