Eubank Jr was set to face Conor Benn – a next-generation showdown between the sons of famous rivals Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn – in October but the bout was cancelled after Conor failed a voluntary drugs test.

Former WBO light-middleweight champion Smith is next up for Eubank Jr, who had claimed he would retire if Benn had defeated him last year.

Eubank Jr is undefeated since 2018 when he was stopped by George Groves at Manchester Arena, the scene of the bout with Smith.

Smith's last defeat came at the hands of Magomed Kurbanov in Ekaterinburg, Russia in 2021.
