Chris Eubank Jr claimed Liam Smith caught him with a 'once in a lifetime' shot and is hoping to receive a rematch later this year.
The Brighton boxer had never touched the canvas as a professional but was savagely knocked out by Smith at a sold out AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday night.
Smith, stepping up from super-welter to middleweight, knocked Eubank down twice in quick succession in the fourth round before the referee waved the contest off.
