Liam Smith thinks Chris Eubank Jr. is getting old

Since his fight with Conor Benn, rumors have circulated that Chris Eubank Jr. could retire soon.

Liam Smith believes his old foe’s best days are firmly in the rearview mirror, opening the door for ‘The Destroyer’ to get the win.

In an interview with Boxing News, ‘Beefy’ said: “Regardless of the weight, I bring Conor more into the fight next time.

“I think Chris is getting older, and I think that fight won’t have done him any favors. I think that’ll have put even more miles on the clock.

“You see Chris training with knee braces and elbow braces. I give Conor a real chance next time.”
