    Smith was clearly injured going into the rematch.

    Reckon Timmy would punch his teeth so far down his throat that he'd have to stick his toothbrush up his arse to clean them.

    As was CEJ was compromised getting down to 157 pounds in a camp before the Smith fight. Difference between him and other losers like Smith and you is he does not make excuses. As for Smith being clearly injured I remember former Wlterweight world Champion Marlon “Magic Man” Starling saying and I quote “After every defeat there is an injury”. The only injuries Smith had was the one CEJ inflicted upon him.

    People’s champ doesn’t have to mean world champ. Look at how the UK treats Chisora. Peoples champs are the guys the public loves and wants to watch.

    Chisora would probably get a hero’s welcome in whatever random bar in the UK. Usyk? They might not even know who he is.

    CEJ made excuses after Smith KO’d him claiming it was from an elbow so STFU clown and stop calling former world champions losers. You talking trash about Liam Smith and Tim Tszyu but at least they are former world champions Eubank Jnr has never won a world title and he never will.

    Yes he has he is a 2 times IBO World champion who has defeated other World Champions much better fighters than little Timmy.

    The WBF and IBO are pretty much on par as titles that hardly mean anything. If it's outside the WBC and WBA, they're not worth bringing up. I would argue that Tsyzu is better than Eubank P4P, but they're both food for the elite fighters in their division, just like the first Liam Smith fight proved for Eubank and the Bakhram massacre proved for Tim.

    I am not claiming CEJ is the best fighter ever or making outlandish claims about him like @MidniteProwler does about Tim who has been ruthlessly exposed. As for the IBO CEJ has it and it’s been worn by very good fighters. The champions make the belt not the other way round. The WBO was spoken about disparagingly once upon a time. Remember when Julio Cesar Chavez Snr then unbeaten and 3 weight division world champion and then Junior Welterweight Champion was asked if he would consider moving up to test the waters at Welterweight by fighting for the WBO belt a confused Chavez asked “What is a WBO”?

    So when Tim got obliterated by Bakhram he was exposed but when Eubank got obliterated by Smith it was an off night?

    Difference is Eubank had an immediate rematch with Smith and beat him up proving Smith win in the first fight was a fluke. Timmy wants no part of Bakhram.

    He's fighting Beanstalk next. Beanstalk beat him in their first fight.

    An over-the-hill, overweight Smith turned up for a quick payday in the second fight. Any fighter getting flattened by Liam like that is not a world-level fighter, even if he did avenge it.

    Yeah but not an immediate rematch like Eubank did with someone who stopped him in his last fight. Guys just made differently I guess.
