Command Chris Eubank Jr. (32-3, 23 KOs) intends to file a protest with the British Boxing Commission (BBBofC) in connection with Saturday's fight with Liam Smith (33-3-1, 20 KOs). This was stated by Kalle Sauerland, Eubank's promoter.
Eubank's team, who lost by technical knockout in the fourth round, claims that Smith's elbow in one of the series of punches immediately before the first knockdown influenced the outcome of the fight.
