Eubank Senior for once actually talks a lot of sense here (mixed in with the usual bullshit)
I challenge anyone who watches this interview to not fall in love with the girl doing the interviews (Sophia de Stefano) tits. :cool:

This is pure Eubank at his most bizzare...... WTF is he on ;D;D
This is clearly filmed on the same day as the one above and it's amazing the difference in his personality.
Still love his clobber, the guy has style :cool:

English has so got it he is brilliant.
Good luck with their 'enterprise', maybe JR gets there, on past performances he beats De Gale and Badou Jack, just hits too hard. For all their irritating faults they've done good, good luck to them.Quote:

You can only judge a fighter on his fights but it's not realistic to judge Jr on the Saunders fight the same as its not realistic to judge this Klitschko against the one that Purrity and Brewster beat and so many other examples.
Jr had only ever gone 8 rounds against mediocre opposition. He jumped in with the British, European and commonwealth champ who had done 12 a few times. That was a mistake. Jr needed to feel that distance before a title challenge or at least be tested against a hard old campaigner. To go from being an almost novice to giving Saunders his hardest fight and only losing on a split shows how good he could be. When he started turning it up Saunders couldn't cope and the ref kept him in the fight at one point in the last round I think.
Jrs fitness and stamina are unbelievable and he will give anyone a tough fight. He will give Golovkin more problems than he's ever had to face and I think would beat him. He just needs some serious fights. Beating up Chudinov, Osullivan and Blackwell isn't good enough but who else is there. Prepare him for Golovkin? No one that would be willing to risk their standing without getting big money I'd bet.
All true but I think Junior was legitimately offered Golovkin just so Eddie/Warren could watch them get beat up and Dad turned it down because it was too soon but will not openly admit it.Quote:

The whole of the Boxing hierarchy is seeing this Eubank circus for what it is . Even ITV are taking the piss really. Yeah, we'll pay you peanuts, but you can have the PPV. at £10 - £12 a shot , he probably stands to make at least £50!!! ;D;D;D;D
Eubank has just come out and claimed the GGG fight collapse was all Eddie Hearns fault and is adamant he'll get the Golovkin fight later this year
Eubank Jr. lays blame for Golovkin collapse, says ‘strong chance’ of resurrecting fight in 2017 | World Boxing News
How would he even know it was Hearns's fault? he wasn't allowed anywhere near the negotiations, He admitted as much himself.Quote:

Fighters who were supposed to give him a tough fight got absolutely battered. Osullivan got pulled out. Blackwell...
Hes doing what you would expect a world class fighter to do to lower level opposition, he's making them look like they don't belong in there with him.
If Murray were to fight Eubank Jr at middle I seriously doubt he lasts as long with Eubank as he did with Golovkin. Same goes for Brook.
I'd probably still fancy Murray against Eubank Jr. Despite the fact that I reckon Murray's best days are way behind him.Quote:

It's all conjecture, but I reckon Murray at his best was better than Eubank Jr. Has ever been. He certainly achieved more than Eubank Jr. Has to date. Obviously that may change, but Jr. is 28 now. 28! Not some up and coming kid.
When you consider that around 9 Million ITV viewers will potentially be seeing this advertised during the Rugby on Saturday afternoon you realise how small Sky Sports are in comparison and what an brilliant opportunity Eubank Jnr has found himself in and what a massive platform he can keep fighting on if it sells well - It's on a plate for him really :)
Chris Eubank Jnr begins a new venture on Saturday night, in a new division, with ITV Box Office intent on making the young fighter a flagship name for its foray into pay-per-view sports programming.
Eubank meets IBO supermiddleweight champion Renold Quinlan, a little-known an Australian boxer.
Yet with Eubank, and the Eubank name, ITV Box Office have chosen well. Eubank and son resonate in boxing circles, and beyond. It is a name which the public associates with the sport. And with ITV broadcasting the Six Nations match between England and France live on Saturday afternoon, expected to draw around 9 million viewers, there will be teasers for the boxing extravaganza on its box office channel.
There is little concern that 'Eubank + Boxing' sells. Place them in a room, with opponents, and let the chemistry happen. On Thursday, Eubank Jnr, a quiet, menacing man, offered a withering assessment at a news conference from Olympia of future rivals Billy Joe Saunders and Gennady Golovkin.
Eubank said he would scorch both the UK No 1 middleweight - Saunders - the only man to defeat 27-year-old Eubank in his 24-fight career, and Golovkin, the world's No 1 in the division. Chris Eubank Snr, the former two-weight world champion, looked on serenely.
What ITV are doing - with pound for pound modern great Andre Ward and once great undisputed heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis providing ringside analysis - looks intriguing and by dipping their toes into the box office market, it has created another potentially lucrative outlet for the bigger names in boxing.
Thursday gave the platform for Eubank Jnr and his father to expound their next few years. Although Junior stressed he is not overlooking Quinlan, his heart is set on another fight with WBO middleweight champion Saunders, and the Kazakh Golovkin.
"Saunders, I'm never, ever going to get past that fight, I'm never going to have him out of mind, until I right that wrong," said Eubank Jnr. "He has a win over me; I need to even the score."
The contest on Saturday night is Eubank Jnr's first fight at super middleweight. He admitted to being comfortable with the extra eight pounds. His father, worth recalling, went from middleweight to cruiserweight by the end of his career.
"After this victory, I'm coming for everybody. Saunders, James DeGale. I want the rest of those teeth, I've told everybody I'm going to put DeGale's teeth on my mantelpiece," he said.
"Then there's Gennady Golovkin. He is viewed by some of you guys as one of the best in the world. I don't see it. I can see holes in him. I've got a nice little plan for that man Golovkin."
Eubank Snr told The Telegraph: "We have no fear of these opponents. We are serious. Even Andre Ward who is here, working for ITV Box Office. I do not fear these fighters for my son. ITV have been very wise to see us, to become involved with us. It has created an opportunity for us to steer our own path, to create fights which the fans want to see, the biggest fights."
Also on the card are the heavyweight David Price, who faces Christian Hammer, and flyweight Andrew Selby who meets Ardin Diale for the WBC international crown. But the 3000 fans will be at Olympia for team Eubank. The father and son who refuse to be denied.

I think he will get, and maybe win, a GGG fight. And it may well be negotiated outside the Hearn/Warren empire
Can't believe this is a sticky, they'll give a sticky to any ole' fight these days. In fact, any ole' guy can get a world title shot. In my day, Frank Warren had to pay some eastern European dude to lie down for a title. #graft
Given the amount of views and posts this thread has received why shouldn't it be?
It's by far the busiest current thread on the forum so people obviously have an interest in Eubank Jnr.
Superheavy is obviously joking.
The whole card is good and far better value for money than what sky are offering. In fact this card embarrasses them.
its a good card, im looking forward to all of the fights
I'm not sure it embarrasses sky tho, they have put on some good cards themselves recently
well have to wait to see how the fights go first too, they might all end up shit
Sorry mate, Master's right. I was trying to be humourous. I shall try to signpost it better next time.Quote:

ITV is a huge platform to be fighting on but he needs to look devastating on Saturday night to get people talking and get the ball rolling.
Being honest here if i was young Eubank and knew my punches were hurting him and was confident i could walk through his i'd carry the fight a few more rounds than i had to and systematically punish Quinlan over more rounds than i really needed to and sell myself more to the average man in the street type of fans.
Basically a 1st round KO win is gonna 50% impress but also 50% get the hardcore fans jumping all over the missmatch bus.
I'm actually looking forward to this not just for the decent looking card but also because of the pressure it puts on Sky, BT and Boxnation to up their game should it prove a success.
Throw the David Haye/Richard Schaefer - "Hayemaker Ringstar" newbies into the mix and it surely leaves the UK fight scene in it's best EVER position.
It's all looking rather good and British Boxing is rocking at the moment :cool:
Does not matter if they end up rubbish fights, the point is we all knew GGG v Brook was a mis match and Haye v Bellew will be the same. Have a word with yourself and your love of all things Sky. :)Quote:

How do we see the Price v Hammer fight going? Could be the end of Prices career.....
i'm not arsed what channel shit is onQuote:

Also will Eubank have more power at the bigger weight, if he does and can put guys to sleep he's gonna be very hard to beat.
I think Price is getting banged out, I have serious doubts about his chin still.
It's more important than having KO power especially in the Heavyweight division.
its massive for price
if he wins he has the same ITV potential as Eubank
there could be 2 ITV PPV stars in the making :)
Could we see BBC PPV?Quote:

Eubank is still hurt by his only pro defeat to Saunders back in November 2014 when he dropped a split decision to the Traveller.
He is determined to avenge that defeat against the current WBO middleweight king, even though he has stepped up to challenge Quinlan at 168lbs for the IBO title tonight at London's Olympia, live on ITV Box Office.
"Saunders, I'm never, ever going to get past that fight," he said. "I'm never going to have him out of mind until I right that wrong.
"He has a win over me. I need to even the score."
Eubank, 27, knows the IBO is lightly-regarded, but feels winning the title could lead to bigger fights.
He still wants unbeaten middleweight king Gennady Golovkin after talks for a fight between them broke down last summer and is also eyeing up IBF super-middleweight champ James DeGale.
"After this, I'm coming for everybody," he said. "DeGale, I want the rest of those teeth he didn't lose against Badou Jack. I've told everybody I'm going to put them on my mantelpiece.
"Golovkin, he's seen by some of you guys as one of the best in the world. I don't see that. I can see holes. I've got a nice little plan for that man. Golovkin, I'm coming for you."
ITV hope Eubank can launch their return to big-time boxing and the challenger is grateful to Quinlan for flying over from Australia to face him.
Quinlan is not highly rated and this is only his 12th pro fight, but he did knock out former WBA middleweight champ Daniel Geale in two rounds to claim the IBO crown in October.
Eubank, who is 23-1-0, said: "He's travelled halfway across the world to come here and defend his title. I’ve got respect for that; he didn’t have to do that, he could have taken the easy route."
Chris Eubank Jnr hoping victory over Renold Quinlan will offer chance of revenge against Billy Joe Saunders
Yeah this pisses all over Sky/Matchroom PPV's.
An outstanding IBO supermiddle world championship main event between two fighters not ranked in the top 10 anywhere in the world. The Dunghutti Destroyer (11-1-0) is the 20/1 defending champion, Simply the Best-ish MK II (23-1-0) is a 1/200 challenger. The bookies believe there's more chance of Elvis living on the moon than the Aussie going home with his mickey mouse belt.
The fantastic undercard consists of -
Andrew Selby (7-0-0) vs Ardin Diale (32-10-4), which the bookies also see as a mismatch. The Welsh Mayweather's younger brother (1/200) challenges for the WBC international title against the filipino Jackal (20/1), who will be hoping to make it 5th time lucky that he isn't stretchered out on foreign soil.
Kid Galahad (21-0-0) is a 1/20 favourite over 50-year-old former bantamweight "world" champion Joseph Agbeko (31-5-0), in an IBF voluntary featherweight eliminator for #2-position. The old boy is going backdown in weight to challenge the UK's Lee Haskins and/or Jamie McDonnell after losing to Bazza.
Adam Etches (21-1-0) faces John Ryder (23-3-0) for the vacant IBF International supermiddle title. The gorilla (8/11 fav) needs a win to stave off a day job back on the building site, Etches (6/4) wants to erase the memory of the last time he was on the box when Sergey 'bond villain' Kometsky decapitated him. On a form line through the bond villain, Ryder - who has also mixed in higher class - should have the beating of Etches.
David Price (21-3-0) finally takes a slight step back up in class against Christian Hammer (20-4-0). Ironically considering his name, Hammer (2/1) is a virtual powderpuff puncher for a heavyweight, however, big Pricey's (4/11) beard ear is so fragile that, along with his non-stamina, will struggle to see the line should the fight reach the 10 minute mark.
....and only for £9.99 :)
Only difference is that there is no main event for this PPV. The undercard is good, but it is an undercard.
Hopefully now then, instead of picking famous well known fighters, Sky/Matchroom will follow this ITV/Eubank model by picking totally obscure fighters, you've never heard of let alone seen, to headline future PPV's.Quote:

If you believe fighters you've never heard of make for better "worthy" PPV's then fine.
