I think Williams went down 4 times vs Eubank

Eubank should fight someone his own wight which is neither.

Liam is an ok fight but Benn will bring in the mega numbers in the UK.

If Eddie Hearn let's this fight happen, which I doubt, he can never be taken seriously again!

Eubank-Smith is happening as far I’m concerned. September 3rd in Liverpool.

I don’t believe for a second, Eubank-Benn is even remotely possible. It’s fake news.

Jr. is a total non starter , a bit of a laughing stock really never beat anyone and living off a decent start and then really just the name.Liam's a decent fighter but a little on the small side himself. I stopped taking Jr. seriously a long time ago and Benn desperately needs a step up in class.Looking closely this is nothing more than names ...end of.

Well it's ok to fight people 2 divisions lower, if it's a fight people want to see. As long as you don't mind it not being a great win.
plus Benn and eubanks is a legendary rivalry. Don't think eubanks make a habit of calling out small guys, but I'm sure he'd fight bud or spence

I think he is fighting Smith next in September. This talk about eubank-benn fight is just a big rumour I mean people like Gareth A Davis are the ones who are giving it validity and he talks a load of pish anyway

Liam Smith, keeping it real. agree 100% Eubank calling out Kell made my skin crawl. That was embarrassing

[PRINCEKOOL]

This is actually a good fight, solid fight. And you just don't know with Eubank Junior. He could obliterate Smith or look lack luster and lose over the distance.

I don't think Smith is great in any area, but he is tough, game and consistent with his style. Liam Smith knows what he is good at, and sticks to that style.

I don't think Eubank Junior's power will have the same effects on Smith as it did on Williams.

So Eubank Junior will have to go to work, and detonate some combinations on Smith etc.
