Chris Eubank Jr. finally managed to avenge the devastating defeat he suffered at the hands of Liam Smith earlier this year. The January 20th bout saw him losing in the fourth round of the match-up via stoppage. This defeat raised a lot of doubts about his capabilities as a fighter and now after almost 7 months he finally managed to prove himself. The boxer received a lot of criticism after he changed his trainer mid-camp.

However, it appears everything was worth it as Eubank Jr. managed to achieve a TKO victory over Smith. From the early rounds, he tried to establish his dominance and even sent Smith tumbling in the 2nd round of the match-up. He kept the pressure and dealt with Smith’s punches. Soon another knockdown came in the 4th round as he landed an eight uppercut on Smith dropping ‘Beefy’. However, Smith managed to buy himself some time after his gumshield fell off.

Even though Smith tried to get back in the game, Eubank Jr. appeared too much for him to handle. Moreover, his mobility was also more or less sacrificed after he rolled his ankles. He endured a lot of punishment throughout the fight and even ended up bloodied and bruised. Though he still tried to hold on during one such session in the 10th round, the referee decided it was enough and stopped the bout.
