Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Williams were scheduled to fight in December

Chris Eubank Jr's middleweight fight with Liam Williams has been postponed for a second time after the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) suspended boxing in January.

The all-British bout has been postponed so medics can concentrate on the fight against Covid-19.

It was originally scheduled for 11 December, but was put back to 29 January after Williams suffered a shoulder injury.

No new date has been set for the bout.

The BBBofC says a review of the situation will take place ahead of a "planned recommencement of boxing in February". , external
