World Championship: It’s possible that Liam Smith may fight Chris Eubank Jr. or Kell Brook in his subsequent bout in December.
Conor Benn failed a drug test, so the fight between Eubank Jr. and Benn was cancelled this month. Eubank Jr. is forced to ponder his alternatives.
Kell Brook is contemplating a stunning comeback to boxing in the meantime.
After defeating his famous British foe Amir Khan earlier this year, Brook, 36, announced his retirement in May.
However, he has been considering a comeback.
Liam’s next match, according to BOXXER promoter Ben-Shalom, “I think it’s going to be either Kell, Chris, or a world title.”
“I suppose Wasserman [Eubank’s promoters] are going through a lot of repercussions from the Eubank-Benn scenario, and who knows what they’re having to deal with right now? But as I said, Liam Smith is now prepared for his big fight, whether it be against Chris, Kell, or for a world championship.
Shalom continued, “He’s now the biggest fight for a lot of people. There are numerous alternatives for Liam.
Smith, a 34-year-old former world champion, is still in excellent shape. During their September matchup’s fourth round, Hassan Mwakinyo appeared to quit. Prior to that, Smith had defeated Anthony Fowler and Jesse Vargas, and his lone defeat came at the hands of Russian challenger Magomed Kurbanov via a disputed points decision.
He deserves a major fight and a second world championship, so Shalom stated. “He wants to win another world championship as much as he wants the big matches.”
“It’s something he deserves after the Fowler and Vargas fights, which we believe he won, and the Kurbanov bout in Russia.
“His upcoming battle, which I believe will be a career-defining one, has only become better with time,” the author said. He’s a tough opponent for anyone right now.
Smith is a middleweight or super-welterweight competitor. Kell Brook plans to move up in weight class in addition to making a return.
