I wonder if Smith will look to retire, he must be setup for life financially and at 35 I can’t really see what he has left to prove, looks like his body starting to fail him too.

Yeah agreed , I dunno if we’ve ever seen any evidence of it but Sheeraz looks like he might be vulnerable to the bodymargaret thatcher wrote: ↑02 Sep 2023, 20:35 on that form chris, sheeraz can punch but looks like a bit of a stiff uprighter to me . and his team obviously wasnt as confident in him as dev is going on about now. if he's world #1 he should've swept up that world title on a big espn show in the states

An abysmal card for PPV, really, really poor.
Not seeing what a lot of others have obviously seen from Eubank tonight either? To me he beat someone who looked miles off it from the first bell. Very dominant but against what?
He’d obliterate Benn but I’ve not seen anything tonight that makes me think Eubank is Better then I thought he was before - and I’ve never thought he was world champion level. Even in a division as weak as this one currently is.

Yes it was hard to judge how good Eubank was as Smith was poor and hardly landed a decent punchfizzjambo wrote: ↑02 Sep 2023, 21:15 An abysmal card for PPV, really, really poor.

This is a rally informed take.
Nothing away from either fighter, but watching someone get bullied and calling it that he wasn’t bullying him enough is astute.

Here you go, I always say it’s a big scouse bias for me and there’s no arguing with that decision.
Do you think they should go third? Do you think the result changes on the rubber? Do you want to see it?
Fair play to CEJ he won that fight and no one can take that away from him.

I don’t wanna make excuses, cos he never. I know for a fact he had a twat of a camp and so did Jnr in the first fight. A good Smith beats a bad Jnr and a good Jnr beats a bad Smith. I wanna see them both at their best.Controversial wrote: ↑02 Sep 2023, 20:58 I wonder if Smith will look to retire, he must be setup for life financially and at 35 I can’t really see what he has left to prove, looks like his body starting to fail him too.

3 stone overweight blamed on a back injury but still taking such a big fight seems either stupid or arrogant - Probably a bit of both.

No I didn't, Clarke was the one sided beat down I expected in reality but they both played their part in a dull affair , what did Allen actually land ?
Didn't watch the lasses, never do.
did you watch Marku , Cullen , Eubank ?
people will always find negative .

Great performance from Eubank Jnr. I thought it would be a similar outcome to the first fight but Eubank was much sharper and more precise.

That was terrible for Smith. He barely threw a punch. When Eubank blew himself out Smith still didn't punch.
His legs looked all over the place. His hand speed was gone. His head was static.
No idea what happened but Smith won't want to go out on a performance like that. Unless he knows he just doesn't have it any more.

Smiths always been a good pro but this leaves a bit of a sour taste .
Not the loss cos it happens but all the immediate excuses .

Not sure I agree. I think it’s just because Smith is game - and Eubank was over cautious because of what happened last time out.
He had the tools to have got him out of there far earlier.
