Chris Eubank Jr<\/a> has been involved in a number of heated rivalries over the years and now one could be revisited, after one of his former foes revealed his willingness to fight him \u2018at any weight\u2019.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old has antagonised a number of fellow Britons over the years, with James DeGale, Liam Williams and most recently Conor Benn each being rubbed up the wrong way.<\/p>\n

However, after an underwhelming display in his rematch with Benn last time out, which was largely attributed to a difficult weight cut, Eubank is poised to move on from that rivalry and return to the super-middleweight division for the first time since 2019.<\/p>\n

At 168 fights with the likes of Canelo Alvarez and Hamzah Sheeraz may await him<\/a>, but there is one familiar face that has thrown his name into the mix for a bout up at \u2018any weight.\u2019<\/p>\n

Speaking to iFL TV<\/a>, former super-welterweight world champion Liam Smith offered to step up to super-middleweight for a decisive trilogy clash with Eubank.<\/p>\n

\u201cEubank and Conor Benn\u2019s not having a trilogy, I believe that Eubank has gone to 168lbs. I\u2019ll fight him at 168lbs if he wants.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s 1-1, who the f**k leaves it at 1-1 but yeah, I think I would fight him at any weight to be honest with you. As long as I was fit and ready, I would fight him at any weight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Smith has also looked below par as of late, with injuries and weight cuts hindering both his September 2023 rematch with Eubank<\/a> and his April 2025 comeback defeat against Aaron McKenna.<\/p>\n

As a result, a move up to 168lbs could be next for \u2018Beefy\u2019, regardless of whether Eubank accepts a third fight with the Liverpudlian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chris Eubank Jr has been involved in a number of heated rivalries over the years and now one…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":422097,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-434122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/434122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=434122"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/434122\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/422097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=434122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=434122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=434122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
