Good fight. I look to see Eubank Jr. batter Saunders for the duration. UD for Eubank. Easy UD. But, Saunders will come in game.Quote:

I beat you to it ;D
Here we go! This should be fun and the press conferences are going to be better than the fight. So many questions . For instance, is Eubank actually going to fight at MW ? I'm going for Saunders, but you never know.
Is this where Billy finds out hes not a middle weight or Eubank?
Personally I feel Eubank is too strong for Saunders. Massive leap in class for him but I suppose they feel hes capable.
Wow. What an undercard fight !!Quote:

Big respect to both camps. Two young up and coming undefeated fighters putting it on line. No messing about. Just getting it on.

Really looking forward to the fight and I might just buy it for that fight alone. As I say the main event does not really appeal to me, but will still watch it.
If there is any justice Eubank Jnr will get completely humiliated. He has done nothing to deserve the fight and his Dad's disgusting behaviour is being rewarded. Warning somebody who has stepped up to the mark again and again, about challenging his son, who has been fed more tomato cans than a dolmio factory is bad enough, but now Warren is actually going to give the twat a fight to prop up his ailing empire. :-\
Warren is making a mistake. Saunders is not a middleweight. He should be down at light middle. He's not going to be strong enough. If Eubank Jr can actually make and fight at middle Saunders punches will have no effect.Quote:

Very hard one to call because Eubank Jr is so untested.
If I had to bet though I'd probably just about lean towards Eubank Jr.
What a cracking British fight, really can't wait to see this one kicking off. I reckon Eubank will rile Saunders in the build up, just as his father managed to rile up his opponents. Saunders comes in angry, and I genuinely think Eubank Jr will have the skills to beat Saunders.
Eubank Jr had to step up at some point, and there's no doubt that he's gonna be making a big step up for this fight. It will be interesting to see how he copes with it, but if, as I think, that he does have the mind to fight more than just training dummies, then I think he'll win well.
You nasty man Eubank Jr and Sr are lovely fellows, I do hope Eubank Sr turns up in his big AmericanQuote:

Good fight, looking forward to it.
I lean towards Eubank Jr. but he's untested so it will be interesting.
BTW I can't stand Eubank Snr.
Let's get it on
I have a feeling the lead up to this fight will have this forum buzzing (it already is) which will legitimise my shout of Eubank Jr being a future superstar.
As someone said Eubank is unproven , however he may well turn out to be the real deal , so it's a very good matchup. One I will watch with interest.Quote:

Glad this has been made so early in their careers. Eubanks will prove to be too strong.
Can someone else go on eventim and try and book front row seats and choose the missed event insurance option. It seems you can for the cheaper seats but not front row!

You should, then maybe you can catch Fury and give him those roses you saved from Christmas :-X
I'm just amazed Ross of all people is backing Eubank jr and not the pickey .Which would be more true to form.Quote:

Unlike Fury and Eubank Jr, Saunders has always demonstrated class and respect in the way he operates. He is a credit to the sport something you can not say about the other two.Quote:

The shit that Saunders comes out with constantly? "Ewank"?
He gets very riled at the mere mention of Eubank and goes off on little tantrums about him. Saunders is getting it.
In all honest chaps Billy Joe v Eubank Jr is a good fight, lets enjoy it but I pick Jr to win.;)
Did you stamp your feet at the end of that rant ?;D Seriously Saunders is the champ and Jr is a chump who obviously feels entitled to ignore that fact and walk about like he is entitled to a line of royal trumpeters waiting eagerly to announce his next fart.Quote:

Think this is probably a ruse by Fwank to improve poor ticket sales for Chisora v pikey. I'd be willing to bet that these two fights do not happen on the same bill. Be prepared to get your fingers burnt if you buy tickets for this show.
Saunders has earned a higher ranking legitimately but Eubank is still too good for him.Quote:

Saunders has little man syndrome. He's jealous of the attention Eubank gets. I bet it hurt him to see Eubank beating on froch in sparring. Sort of shot down all his bullshit that the strongest world champ at the higher weight was having a tough competitive spar with Eubank. Saunders would get swatted like a fly by Froch.
Really hope this happens, can't help but be one of the cynical cunts though, odds-on a pull out once the Fury-Chis bill is sold. Why is there still no comment from either fighter?
Be interesting to see how the bookies price this up. Seems like the majority are picking style over substance.

what a fight, im very excited about it
Saunders is talking about winning in 5 rounds but he's never been a puncher, I doubt Hel start with an unbeaten fighter
Eubank jnr is supposed to be the real deal, according to Adam booth. Sparred Frisch and did well by all accounts. I can see either guy winning on points. Can't see them stopping the other
This can not get bigger Saunders has found his level. Quigg v Frampton are champions and now hold versions of world titles.Quote:

If Eubank destroys him, it will confirm what a lot of people are already thinking/ hoping.
World Boxing News - Warren announces Saunders v Eubank Jr, eyes WBO eliminator status
Warren wants this as a WBO world title eliminator
Well at the moment neither are world class so either would be perfect to fight for theQuote:

This will be a proper test of Eubanks quality. Saunders has been a pro 3 years longer and holds the European, British and commonwealth titles.
Saunders asking for this fight which does nothing for him on the world ranking scene has set himself up for a big fall and will end up looking a mug after all the shit in every interview and every single time he's within range of a microphone if Eubank is as good as I think he is.
Its a very similar situation to what his own dad was in, in the build up to the first Benn fight.
