    This is excellent news because we may get more answers to the questions the unlikely unexpected outcome we witnessed:

    Awesome, the only thing more fun than seeing CEJ brutally knocked out, is seeing CEJ brutally knocked out twice.:applaudit:

    Eubank jr will do his best AJ v Ruiz impression and stay the hell away. Hope he gets sparked though...

    It didn't work at all the first time, it won't work the second time. As I said before the fight, Liam is just too good at cutting off the ring for CEJ to survive.

    The answers to the ''unlikely unexpected outcome'' you're alluding to ie. the excuses you're not so subtly trying to make begin and end with Smith being the better fighter and knocking CEJ's overrated ass senseless

    The elbow and weight excuses hold zero weight (pun intended)

    Here we see CEJ getting dropped by the first right hand

    He will lose again but fair play to him for trying to settle the score.

    It might sound crazy but I actually give him a good chance. I think he might have been burned out with all the Conor Benn stuff. With enough rest and a full camp making weight safely I wouldn't count Eubank out.

    Love to see that salt and pepper scouse rascal repeat the result.

    But I agree I wouldn't write off Eubanks just yet.

    His guard is too low and he had trouble catching Smith through Smith`s tight guard.

    I was totally wrong on Smith. I had picked Eubanks to win but if you really looked at both these guys the proven fighter here is Smith. Smith has fought far better opposition and Eubanks RJJ imitation is utter crap. I don’t see anything that will change in a 2nd fight.

    Every Brit fight has a rematch clause, doesn’t it?

    Eubank Jr came in at 159lbs instead of the division limit of 160lbs, so I'm half expecting him to toss out the "But I was weight drained" line as one of the excuses to justify this rematch.

    But underneath all the bluster, Eubank Jr really is a good man for wanting Beefy to have another big payday while Eubank Jr takes another loss. :lol:

    Well let’s see if Smith with his questionable views can do it it again.

    I think it will work. I don´t see Liam boy knocking him out again, no matter how CEJ fights. I do see Liam beating the crap out of him tho.
    Liam Smith by UD in a somewhat competitive fight, but one where CEJ takes a career worst beating.
