Definitely a bit, but it's hard to give credit to somebody who hasn't fought anybody and then we are told is better than anyone else bar Ward on the planet.:-\ That tells me he could well be a bit shitQuote:

Probably will get bigger. Lots of cash for Eubank and Eubank KO. Mainly from his home area though. But still chunky bets.Quote:

Saunders is going to be Cod
On BT sports Eubank did phone through and speak to Saunders. Shows you he is not scared. :)
That has about as much to do with this fight as eggs have in common with a cat in a hatQuote:

Yes talking to somebody remotely thru a phoneline take much bigger gonads than talking to them face to face. Eubank and his Dad are amazing and great for British boxing :-\Quote:

Its almost the same scenario actually.
Look at Eubank Sr record before he fought Benn. He hadn't faced anyone decent.
He also hadn't had as many stoppages as Eubank Jr has.
Benn was genuine world class and an experienced world champion.
Saunders is not yet on Benns level but Eubank Jr is at least on the same level his dad was at that time. Just because he hasn't faced any names yet doesn't mean he's not going to beat Saunders.
If Warren and Saunders are pissed off with "Eubanks" now, wait until "Eubanks" walks away with the British, Commonwealth and European titles out of nowhere and earns a mandatory challenge for a world title;)
;D
Eubank Jr has done nothing really yet. He's not even turned up to go face to face with Saunders and he's one of the most talked about boxers in here. He's going to be big;)Quote:

Check out a search of Tyson Fury topics. I started one! Look how recent they all are too. He is the most talked about fighter on here. He has more dedicated threads than any other fighter.
http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...earchid=741551
In fact Eric, look at the first 3 pages of those search results! You made 4 topics! Me? Just 1!
Hahaha!
Maybe your a bigger fan than me you numpty!
A quick scan of the first three pages of the search and Tam has made 13 threads about Fury, Eric 4, Brock 4, Smashup 3, vendettos 2, Dark Lord Al 1, Greenbeenz 1, Mark TKO1, Fenster 1.
He's going to be a big mainstream name once he gets his chance.

When he goes mainstream he will be horizontal looking up at the ring lights.
Ross doesn't make the threads, he's just all over them like a fly on shit...
Fury's thread volume is a lot like the fact that Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj all have millions of twitter followers - they're still garbage regardless.
I beg to differ.Quote:

You have a vested interest. You cannot stop your fascination of the man. You think you don't like him but you spend a lot of your collective time talking about him.
Its people like yourselves that will contribute to Furys name getting bigger and him getting bigger purses and audiences. He must be the most talked about fighter not to have for a world title.
As for Justin Beiber. His main concern is earning money and he's doing that.
The only Fury I've ever found interesting and entertaining starred Brad Pitt and was about tanks.
Hope this helps.
Just wached this interview and found it interesting because Jimmy Tibbs is asked what he thinks the outcome of the fight will be and both times he answers he closes his eyes. He looks the complete opposite of what he says. "Im confident were gonna win". Near the end 2.30 minute mark.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=I0_cYdNCRiU
Sounds more tired than doubt when he answered it.Quote:

Also, around the 16 minute in here too.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=z6QVhTEzcyk
Eubank turned up to the press conference on his own today and did quite well. Kept Billy Joe in his place and subdued.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m7EgljbsA_A
Also, found it interesting that Tibbs has confirmed what iv thought for a long time that Saunders is not a true middleweight. In fact. It sort of shows Tibbs up as a trainer that Saunders is now in good shape. He had to go to a different gym and work with other trainers to achieve this. Tibbs has said that Saunders has had to put weight back on.

This is likely true. Saunders didnt have the power to keep Ryder or o sullivan off im. He still won both fights thoQuote:

He's not got the natural strength to be living with natural strong middles over 12.
The only real question is can Eubank fight for 12?
I believe he can. His dad would not risk the humiliation if he cant and then as I said a few weeks ago, we may very well have boxings next massive world superstar on our hands. He will sell.
Whoa! Easy Tiger! No doubt it would be a great win for him, but "next massive world superstar!" I agree he will sell, but he has to deliver, and even if he beats Saunders, for all the negatives you give about Saunders means he would still have a way to go before he gets near Superstar status!Quote:

1. The old "I'm prepared to die bullshit" a la Bellew. There's no place for that crap in Boxing for many reasons.
2. His old man (who I love as a bloke even if he does talk horseshit) using GGG's name. If "he could beat GGG tomorrow!", then why did he need a warm up fight to beat Saunders 4 weeks later?
For now, let's keep it real, eh?
Good point. Pryce said Billy Joe beat him easier than Eubank did and is the better boxer. He only thinks Eubank will win because he's stronger.Quote:

Not sure about Eubank winning, but 100% accept your point about Saunders. Infact that's probably why he's saying he'd retire if he loses. He knows he couldn't re-invent himself as a LMW.Quote:

isn't strong enough to beat a relative novice at this weight before he's even got a sniff at a world title he has no future there.

the weight easy enough and he did. Coming in under.
Are we to believe that a guy who has only just realised he can make the weight limit with his last fight can beat a man with the professional and amateur career of GGG? like his Dad seems to think? That's my point.
You got daddy issues princess?Quote:

The whole point is that he has done nothing to be deserving and Saunders is the one doing him a favour by gifting him an opportunity. I don't have any issues with my old man, he is the most extraordinary human being I have ever met but that is irrelevant here. It is a fact that Eubank Jr could have fought himself into a mandatory position for any of Saunders belts but had no desire too. Short cut generation, they want the fame without the hard work or product necessary to make it mean anything.Quote:

Are you assuming it was Eubank who started all this?Quote:

It was Saunders. I believe he was jealous of the attention Eubank was getting and started bringing him up in intervews.
Then Eubank was asked about what he thought of what Saunders was saying and he said he would beat him in 5 or 6 rounds. Then saunders turned it up and started talking about a fight between the two on any platform he had available. He even called out Eubank after one of his fights then asked Warren to put it together.
Its been Saunders who wants to gift Eubank all those titles;D
