Mercy rule stoppage. The corner were clearly brave enough to continue.

Smith has always been the consumate professional, always immaculately prepared.

If he was injured before the fight, I don't think he would have gone through with it, it wasn't like a pension fight

It's no coincidence that Eubanks best ever performance was a case of doing the basics right. No ridiculous RJJ impressionism. Simple footwork and fast hands, great showing. Smith's not on his level.

I love Nigel but I can't get that gormless celebration out of my head on Connor's video when Eubank was stopped last time.

Bloody chuffed for Eubank tonight.

Very unlike Smith that, never looked in it from round 1 and no urgency, pressure, seemed off but Eubank did what he had to, used the jab pretty well albeit against a very static opponent and didn't load up with every shot, much improved basics.

Eubank Jr was excellent tonight, no surprise when he used a jab ,.it was quality, he dominated Smith from the outset, put him down in the 4th with a trademark uppercut and continued to school him, opened him up in the 10th put him down again with a combination, left hook putting him down, Smith brave but Eubank just kept throwing until the ref jumped in, Smith was poor but Eubank finally showing a bit of strategy

Smith didn't look right tonight from the first bell , just like Jnr didn't last time .

I'd still pick a "right" Eubank to beat a "right" Smith tho :lol:
