    It's quite good for a casual like me though who didn't spot it, and hearing other people's observations/comments re defence or lack of. It's not an excuse for Eubank if he's putting himself in line for this type of incident. Dunno if it may go some way to explaining his first tko or not.

    I saw mention of an elbow and went through it. All punches were fair and any slight elbow was definitely accidental.

    The elbow deffo landed before the uppercut and the elbow is the reason for the tennis ball lump on the right of his face .. deffo could of done the real damage..

    His legs barely kept himself up from the right hand 5/6 punches earlier than the uppercut. He was hurt! Get over it.

    He’s a good fighter , Liam Smith, but he’s a dirty one when needs be, ask Liam Williams.

    I really like and rate Williams and he was winning but the tide was turning anyway Smith had won the previous 2/3 and Williams a boy from the valleys was gassing he wanted a way out before he got knocked out which was a round or two away.

    No real surprise to see Liam using his head and elbow.

    I remember watching thinking the elbows looked hazardous but certainly not enough to make me think it was point deduction, it was general rough housing
