The son of the legend has been boxing under the wing of Roy Jones Jr for the last three years, but a few days ago they parted ways. The Briton decided to join Brian McIntyre, best known for his work with Terence Crawford. A strong choice, but according to Smith it won't have any impact due to young Eubank's selfish nature.

“Chris is acting his own way again, looking at the names. And if Crawford hadn't won last Saturday, would he have picked BoMack? I don't think so. But I don't care who Chris brings. He can take BoMack, he can take Terence Crawford himself, the best boxer in the world, to his corner. It won't help him anyway, because he's too selfish to listen to anyone. He may have the best trainers in the world, the best boxers in the corner, but I don't feel like it makes any difference."

The revenge of the two Britons will take place on September 2 in Manchester. The BOXXER evening will also feature a duel between Frazier Clark (7-0, 5 KOs) and David Allen (21-5-2, 18 KOs). Ben Whittaker (4-0, 3 KOs), Florian Marco (12-0-1, 7 KOs) and Mark Heffron (29-2-1, 23 KOs) will also enter the ring.
