Eubank Jr vs Smith LIVE! Boxing result, fight stream, TV channel, latest updates and reaction

Eubank Jr vs Smith LIVE!

Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Smith clashed on an enormous evening of British boxing at the Manchester Arena, with ‘Beefy’ producing an incredible and brutal fourth-round knockout to emphatically win a much-anticipated middleweight grudge match.

A shellshocked Eubank Jr twice went down in quick succession after a punishing eruption from the former WBO light-middleweight champion, who boosted his own hopes of going on to become a two-weight titlist and dealing an enormous blow to his opponent’s own ambitions on that front. There was plenty of respect between the two rivals after an ugly build-up to the main event that got seriously out of hand.

In Saturday’s chief support act, Richard Riakporhe stopped Krzysztof Glowacki in emphatic fashion. Ekow Essuman remains the British and Commonwealth welterweight champion after a close clash with Chris Kongo, while Joseph Parker also saw off the challenge of Jack Massey and Frazer Clarke moved to 5-0 after Frankie Stringer and Matty Harris kicked off the night with wins.
