Cheered on by most of a febrile 20,000-strong crowd in Manchester, many of whom had travelled from the winner’s home city of Liverpool, Smith kept his composure from the start against an opponent who had claimed he was vastly inferior and ended a week of bitter acrimony with a brutal riposte when it mattered to keep his hopes of contending for titles again alive. Smith showed all of the experience he has gained from meetings with the likes of modern great Canelo Alvarez as he pinned Eubank Jr into the corner where his target had started the fight for the finish, landing an uppercut to wobble and left hook to fell a fighter who had traded on his granite chin beforehand....
