Thread: Chris Eubank Jnr will batter Saunders

We all know its coming on Nov 29th in London, Saunders knows it too which is why he's been chatting so much shit claiming he'll "retire if he loses" and that Eubank backed down on a night out when they bumped into each other not so long ago .... Saunders has no power so Eubank will just go through him and bang him out brutally.

I also predict this will happen pretty early in the fight as Saunders hot head and ego lead him into a foolish and brief toe to toe war

I hope not. We will never hear the end of how the undeserving hype job son of a pro waltzed into an opportunity on Daddies coat tails after fighting a handful of nobodies.

But this is the thing, Saunders will talk about knocking Eubank out, but he's not like that when he steps between the ropes. He doesn't have the power......... But he does have the ring craft and that is one thing that Eubank hasn't come across. It's very commendable doing well sparring well against Froch, but for Froch's strong points , movement and ringcraft aren't up there. An interesting fight, I'd have to say Saunders on points.

Saunders has almost no chance against Eubank.

This to me is like Lee Purdy vs Devon Alexander when Purdy replaced Kell Brook. I see there being that much of a gulf in class here.

Eubanks will win convincingly and I can see a stoppage.

I can't see how you can come to that conclusion based on the facts. Maybe Eubank does win, maybe not, but he has fought nothing but human punch bags . How can we tell based on that?
Purdy was about the 4th or 5th best Brit, and Alexander was World Champion. Maybe Eubank could become World champ one day, but there's still a long way to go , win or lose against Saunders. As for Saunders, I dunno why he's even taken the fight, nothing to gain apart from a bigger purse. It's a bit short-sighted by him.

Eubanks may have fought lesser opposition but he has handled them like a quality world class fighter would. He has that aura.

He has the aura of a dickhead

Maybe that is what it is but he will still beat Saunders.

Neither are explosive punchers. Eubank jr, although looking more impressive lately, couldn't put a dent in Bradley Pryce, and has since stopped a bunch of Polish taxi drivers.

Billy Joe has chinned out some quality guys for this level. He would have certainly beat all of Eubank's mob just as easily.

What a great fight.

Froch not entirely the right sparring partner for BJS, tired scrapper/puncher just keeping fit waiting for paydays he's never going to get, how like EuJr is he?

Eu easy win, if you dont like his dad just get over it!

Saunders is a volume puncher he has some skill, but Eubank will do a KO job on him,! I am
not a fan of Saunders, I have watched him as a amateur and pro he's a decent fighter, but he's
not a World Champ in waiting, it's a good fight they really don't like each other a bit of a treat
for us fans.

Up until last few days I was certain Saunders would win on points, now I'm not so sure

I want Eubank to win

And I think Saunders seems to be getting a bit too emotionally involved

Lot of confidence in a guy that has never been past 8 rounds and never fought a "live" opponent.

Billy Joe's last 6 opponents

Jarrod Fletcher - 12-0 when he fought BJ. 6-1 since with his only loss coming in a "world" title challenge.

Nick Blackwell - 12-1 Gone 3-1-1 since. Only loss in International title fight. Previous loss against Martin Murray.

Matthew Hall - 25-6 Former Commonwealth champion. Retired.

Spike O'Sullivan - 16-0 Irish middleweight champ. International titlist. 1-0 since.

John Ryder - 15-0 Unbeaten since. Won international title.

Emanuele Blandamura - 22-0 International titlist. Not fought since.

Eubank Jr last 6 opponents

Alistair Warren - 8-5-3 Taxi driver.

Sandor Micsko - 22-5-2 Hungarian road sweeper.

Robert Swierzbinski - 13-2 Polish taxi driver.

Stepan Horvath - 12-3 Czech Republic Postman. Since KO'd in 2 rounds by Liam Williams

Ivan Jukic - 19-2 Croatian Milkman.

Omar Siala - 23-17-3 German Greengrocer.

Imagine if we reversed the opponents, is there anyone that thinks Billy Joe wouldn't KO all 6 of Eubank's comp inside 7 rounds?

Would Eubank jr be a cert against Billy Joe's comp? I think he could beat them but i'd want to see him prove it.

((Yes I'm a boring nerdy train spotter. Fact.))
