Press Release:
The highly-anticipated rematch between bitter middleweight rivals Liam ‘Beefy’ Smith and Chris Eubank Jr will take place at the AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday, September 2nd, it was announced today.
Airing live and exclusively on Sky Sports Box Office, the blockbuster pay-per-view event will bring the pair’s heated rivalry to a fiery conclusion in the same arena which hosted their electrifying first encounter in January.
That frenetic firefight lasted just one minute into the fourth round before Smith secured victory with a stunning pair of knockdowns. Determined to avenge the defeat, Eubank Jr immediately activated the contracted rematch clause and has been in a protracted training camp focused on beating the Liverpool man.
With a prior date having been postponed due to Smith suffering a minor injury in training camp, the simmering rivalry has reached new heights with each passing month and is set to reach boiling point on September 2nd.
