Episode description

CHRIS EUBANK JR breathed new life into his eventful career when he stopped Liam Smith in their rematch in Manchester, in the same arena where Smith stopped Eubank just eight months ago.The performance from Eubank was hard to fault, there was new patience and intelligence mixed with spite. But the below-par showing of Smith is also worthy of investigation.We look at the position of VADA in British boxing and, again, the unrelenting problem of drugs in the sport.And we take a trip back in time to focus on the career of Kirkland Laing and specifically the astonishing victory over Roberto Duran which took place this week in 1982.Please rate us.
