All in all, in a thrilling rematch Chris Eubank Jr. bested Liam Smith, securing a tenth-round knockout. Eubank Jr.'s performance was undeniable as he took Smith to the canvas, later urging the referee to halt the fight amidst a flurry of punches. The rematch also showcased Eubank Jr.'s dominance from the outset, having previously downed Smith in the fourth round. After his victory, the fighter ambitiously called out the former middleweight champion Gennadiy Golovkin, though a match-up remains uncertain.

In the co-main bout, Adam Azim (9-0, 6 KOs) showcased his relentless activity against Aram Fanyan (23-2, 5 KOs), earning a ten-round unanimous decision. The young light welterweight's victory, decided by scores of 98-92, 100-90, and 99-91, leaves boxing pundits questioning his potential at higher ranks.
