    look through the threads on here. plenty of the comments on here saying Eubank wins easy . or I can quote them if you want

    And on youtube comments, its crazy how many ppl are writing off Smith.

    Smith by decision is 7/2. Seems good value to me. I’m not sure Eubank will ko smith, smith can and will work hard thru this fight. Not sure the same can be said of Eubank, he has a tendency to coast in fights which smith won’t allow him to do. Therefore Eubank being forced to fight at a pace he’s not comfortable with may make it hard for him in the later rounds.
    I think I’m trying to convince myself…

    That pretty much sums up how I feel about Smith.

    When the fight was announced I didn't favour either guy, was just looking forward to a good fight.

    However after the way Smith has acted I am really rooting for Eubank to smash him

    You are right about Smith - his homophobia was pathetic and disgusting. You then go on to slate all people from Liverpool based on the actions of a few. Do you not see what you are doing? All towns or areas have their criminals or problems.

    Well, that was really toxic from Eubank Junior there then wasn’t it? That was the worst it got?
    Smith was making an issue of the man’s alleged sexuality, a cheep shot and like I say classless.

    In what scenario does the Eubank youngster lose to a past prime feather fisted 154lber coming up? Smith is decent, but he is nothing spectacular. Eubanks only losses have come against a fully fledged 160lber in Saunders - losing a SD in his first ever 12 rounder. And a 192lb George Groves.

    I see no way a warrior like CHRIS lets a little light middle have any joy at all in this fight.

    Smith needs to be careful. The young warhorse might show shades of Emile Griffith tonight.

    It’s a tough one. I know Smith has definitely had the better of him whilst sparring in the past but what do you take from that? Eubank is the bigger man and probably dealt with mutual opponent Williams better. I think he edges it but I hope Smith wins.
