Eubank and Smith weigh in

Chris Eubank Jr. and Liam Smith passed the official weigh-in on the eve of their 12-round non-title middleweight bout on January 21 in Manchester, posting the same mark of 159 pounds (72.12 kg). At the weigh-in, Eubank Jr. wore a rainbow-colored bandage on his arm as a sign of support for the LGBT community.

The day before, at the final press conference, Smith expressed suspicions that Eubank was actually gay, as he had never seen him with a girl. Eubank replied that he had information that Liam was cheating on his wife. "I'd rather be gay than cheat," Eubank said.

The British Boxing Commission, following the scandalous press conference, announced that it would consider it for unacceptable insults and would later issue its verdict.
