BEEF ENCOUNTER

LIAM SMITH welcomes the fact Chris Eubank Jr has brought in a new coach to try to beat him on Saturday. 

That’s because the Scouser, who won the pair’s first fight by knockout, is convinced it shows his opponent is scrabbling around trying to find a way to defeat him at Manchester Arena.

After parting company with Roy Jones Jr, Eubank has turned to Terence Crawford’s trainer, Brian ‘Bomac’ McIntyre, and his team.

And Smith, who won their first fight in January, said: “The fact he has got a new coach is everything I need to know. He’s trying to bring in as much help as he can have so he obviously blames Roy for the last one.

“He has brought a nutritionist on board, he’s using a full team with the strength coach, so he’s trying to get everybody on board to give himself a better chance.
