    I think the embarrassing thing is that despite living in a house made of glass he was one that brought up appearances first. He obviously thinks he’s some kind of Adonis just because he’s able to cheat on his wife, oblivious to the fact that if you flash a bit of cash and tell a bird you’re a pro sportsman you can look like Peter Crouch and clean up!

    It's funny all this talk about Eubank getting to Smith but it looks like the complete opposite to me. That's as rattled as I've ever seen young Chris

    Really id say other way around, Smith resorted to playground taunts like your gay ! Clearly not thinking and will get a fine. Eubank seems the same to me just beinga wind up merchant.

    Weird them both obsessing over looks, they are both normal looking blokes really aside from the work they have had done. I guarantee birds are all over the pair of them on a night out, famous with cash will mean the women are game.

    should be a cracking fight none the less, great build up so far. Eubank wins this I think.

    Before the press conference I was indifferent. In fact, over the years had felt Smith was a decent little fighter and that Eubank was overrated by many.

    After the press conference I began to pull for Eubank Jr in a big way. Smith could not have come across any worse. He sounded like a schoolyard bully with his homophobia. Then, as he sat there with his horrible wiry white hair and fake teeth, he started to pick on Eubank's appearance. After suggesting that Eubank is homosexual, this came across as a bit odd to be picking on a man's appearance. It was no wonder why he didn't pick on Eubank's fake teeth... Their 'teeth' look identical to the point that they look like they both got their teeth out of the same mould. Smith would just not let go with the cheap digs and Eubank hit him with the finisher. It was like a fight where the man would pepper the opponent with jabs all night, to then be KO'd in the final round with a devastating blow. Smith's face was a picture, he went all pink like a radish. His hair looked even more white contrasted against the pinkness of his face. He even did that ASBOesque chewing of the gum as he tried to control himself from fainting.

    Let's get one thing straight, being gay is not a problem. So why mention it? If a man is gay, and doesn't want to say, why back him into a corner on the public stage? Smith shot himself in the foot there. Getting a hair tattoo or whatever you call it isn't a problem, and neither is the teeth for that matter. But what is wrong is cheating on your wife. Smith's reaction was as good as an admission of guilt. It shows that not only is he a bigot, he is a lowlife. If you cheat on your wife, you deserved to be pulled up on it. You're doing something terribly destructive to your family. When you have "proud dad" written on your social media then you ought to think about that before being an infidel.

    Two friends of mine from China, who were and still are living in London, around ten years ago, went to a Liverpool football match and decided to do some shopping. I half-jokingly told them to be very careful with their purchases, as they told me they'd be leaving them in their car for a few hours (around £4,000 worth of goods). Low and behold their car had been smashed in and the goods had been taken. The more I hear about Liverpudlians the more I lose faith in that place. Liverpudlians do themselves no favours.

    Smith being an arsehole is nothing to do with being from Liverpool, you've just came across as an arsehole with that comment too

    TBH im from London and used to travel to Liverpool for wprk quite regularly. Scousers are pretty much like anybody from any other big city. Just normal people trying to live their life, yes like all places their will be some scumbags but that isnt because they are from liverpool. TBH as well if i had 4k worth of goods in my car i woupdnt leave it in a car park in tunbridge wells let alone a big city.

    I mean its not their fault some scumbags have stolen their possessions but they have made a poor decision. Like if i walked through woolwich town centre at 3 am waving wad of £50 notes above my head its not my fault if i get mugged, ive still made a stupud decision

    A lot of people are gonna end up with egg on their face, cause many are laughably suggesting Eubank Jr beats Smith easily LOL!

    At the very LEAST, Smith gives Eubank Jr a tough close fight.

    Have you people even watched the gloves are off.

    Eubank Jr was the first one to be classless, and the first one to mention appearance by saying to Smith that he 'looks about 50' , and saying he's 'just another Smith' etc. Smith was giving a delayed response to those Gloves are off comments

    No one thinks that. Everyone thinks it's going to be close.
