Liam Smith vs Chris Eubank Jr 2 Set For June 17th

Following their first fight on 21st January, it looks like the rematch between Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Smith could be on.

There are various rumours circulating on boxing Twitter that the two fighters have come to an agreement for their rematch. June 17th is the rumoured date for the rematch, with the AO Arena in Manchester looking like the front runner to host the mega-fight.

The first fight was a truly compelling one back in January, with ‘NextGen’ the favourite going into the bout with the best UK sports betting sites. However, Smith shocked the world by emphatically knocking Eubank out in the fourth round of their middleweight contest.

This was seen as quite a huge upset in the boxing world, but came as absolutely no surprise to Smith of course. The Liverpudlian had been brash in the build-up to the fight and was adamant he was going to school the son of boxing legend Chris Eubank.

Now it seems that the rematch is well and truly on with an announcement imminent for the second fight between Eubank Jr and Smith. Boxing promotional company for Liam Smith, Boxxer, also sent an email to members of the press to attend a press conference on Tuesday, April 25th in London.

Boxxer have said a “major fight announcement will be made”, with boxing fans certain it is the Smith vs Eubank Jr 2 fight. If it is, UK boxing fans are in for a treat come Saturday, June 17th!

Having won the first fight by emphatic knockout, Liam Smith will likely be the bookies favourite to win the fight again this time around. However, a lot of people will fancy the chances of Chris Eubank Jr to get revenge as the betting underdog in this fight with the best online gambling sites.

Should this fight get officially announced, what a spectacle we have on our hands on June 17th! A huge rematch between Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Smith is the definition of a super-fight.
