However, his team reportedly believes Smith may have used his elbow in the first of Eubank Jr’s two knockdowns.<\/p>\n

And they are now considering appealing to the British Boxing Control Board.<\/p>\n

Wasserman Boxing’s Kalle Sauerland told Sky Sports:<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Eubank Jr.’s trainer Roy Jones Jr. wrote on Instagram: \u201cAvoid Roy Jones Jr. as a trainer! Please avoid<\/p>\n

“Damn it, if you can take that away from a martial artist through training, then it’s no wonder I’ve raised you so much!!”<\/p>\n

Regarding the rematch, Sauerland added:<\/p>\n

“We have a few weeks to put it into effect. We’ll have internal discussions to see what’s best for Juniors and go from there.”<\/p>\n

Before the game started, Eubank Jr. admitted he was concerned about Smith’s possible elbow injury.<\/p>\n

He said in The Gloves Are Off:<\/p>\n

“And when things get tough, they look for loopholes and ways they shouldn’t use.”<\/p>\n

Smith replied:<\/p>\n

After the fight, Eubank Jr. claimed he was still the better boxer.<\/p>\n

He said: “I was in control of the fight, but I got caught. In my heart, I’m still a better fighter.”<\/p>\n

“Of course, I’m not going to argue much after losing, but I do argue to prove that I’m a better fighter.<\/p>\n

“He caught me in a once-in-a-lifetime shot. I feel like I was in control of the fight before it happened.<\/p>\n

“Liam came back at me and threw more punches. I slipped and the referee stopped me.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
