I disagree. I think Eubank has no chance. He will be Lacy'ed or Eubank'ed like his dad.
Its a fantastic fight for Eubank Jr, its better than a Mayweather fight! Win lose or draw he's fought the best around, and to be honest a loss to GGG is nothing to be ashamed of (if it happens), great matchmaking and hopefully a great fight. Boxers should be fighting, and not laying around for easy makeweight fights until they get a title shot against some closeted prima donna who happens to have some dodgy alphabet merchants version of a title. Bloody good luck to him, and well managed by his people (probably dad included).Quote:

I think Golovkin has the sublimity of a Calzaghe and I want to see him challenged and have his prime drawn out and put on show. I want to see him put on his bum and get up and dominate. Maketh the legend. Maketh the legend. A Eubank is always a good addition to such a path.Quote:

Golovkin just hits so fucking hard that it's virtually impossible to see Eubank handling it for 12 rounds but having said that Eubank looks to have his dads Chin and will which means he is right in this fight.
This is gonna be a brutal BRUTAL fight.
One thing Eubank cannot do is fuck about for 5-6 rounds like he did against Saunders and needs to go straight after Golovkin.
Really hope this get's made as it's a real fight this one and potentially FOTY :cool:
It will be cracking viewing on prime time channel 5.Quote:

I don't see anything special in GGG. I see Eubank Jr winning this fight. In fact Triple G could get seriously hurt in this fightQuote:

Eubank gets KOd it doesnt really affect his stock too much at all and if anything will increase his popularity around the world.Quote:
