BOXXER chief Ben Shalom has revealed that Anfield could be the venue for a rematch between Liam Smith and Chris Eubank Jnr in the summer.
It was confirmed last week that the two will face off at the AO Arena in Manchester on January 21 in a huge middleweight showdown.
The ECHO understands that a rematch clause has been installed in the contracts both fighters signed last week. The move is not uncommon in modern day boxing.
Smith heads into the mouth-watering bout in the form of his life following wins over Jesse Vargas, Anthony Fowler and Roberto Garcia. And Shalom believes should the former Archbishop Beck pupil come out on top, then the rematch could well take place at Anfield, with the home of Liverpool BOXXER’s preference.
