It\u2019s repeat or revenge time for middleweight boxing rivals Liam Smith and Chris Eubank Jr. Their long-anticipated rematch has been set for this September \u2013 here\u2019s how you can get tickets today. <\/p>
The stage is set for one of boxing\u2019s biggest rivalries to return this September.<\/p>\n
A full nine months after their first clash, Liam Smith and Chris Eubank Jr will be facing off once again at Manchester\u2019s AO Arena, in a match that\u2019s been dubbed \u201cRepeat or Revenge.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boxing foes first touched gloves this January in a fierce fight which saw Eubank Jr knocked out just one minute into the fourth round.<\/p>\n
At the time, Eubank Jr claimed that Smith\u2019s knockdown was the result of an illegal elbow strike, while Smith accused his opponent of bad sportsmanship. Now, the two middleweight stars are ready to settle the score in what\u2019s likely to be a match for the ages.<\/p>\n
The original match date was scheduled for much earlier this year but had to be pushed back following a training injury for Smith. Now that the new date has been confirmed, the Liverpudlian said: \u201cI\u2019m fully healed up now, injury-free, and I\u2019m looking forward to finishing Chris Eubank Jr\u2019s career.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile the 33-year-old, and son of boxing legend Chris Eubank, has responded on Twitter: \u201cThere\u2019s nowhere left to hide. September 2nd is payback time \u2013 no more excuses! You know what\u2019s coming!\u201d<\/p>\n
