The Liam Smith vs. Aaron McKenna round-by-round updates have arrived. They provide real-time coverage and live scoring for the upcoming middleweight bout. The matchup will be a proving ground for Smith, who is coming off a two-year layoff in his twilight years.
He enters the bout at 36 years old, with a 33-4-1 record. Unfortunately, his most recent fight was a brutal beating at the hands of event headliner Chris Eubank Jr., who TKO'd him in round 10 of a very physical encounter. While he has taken time off to refresh himself, many wonder whether he can turn back the clock.
His opponent, however, is undefeated and young at 19-0. McKenna will be determined to make his name off of Smith, a former WBO super welterweight champion, and the oddsmakers on DraftKings Sportsbook certainly favor him to, listing him as a -165 favorite, while Smith is a +130 underdog.
The event begins at 12:00 PM E.T. (Eastern Time) / 9:00 AM P.T. (Pacific Time) for American fans, while local U.K. fans tune in at 5:00 PM B.S.T. However, the Smith vs. McKenna is estimated to begin at 1:30 PM E.T. / 10:30 AM P.T. / 6:30 PM B.S.T.
