Eubank Jnr v Golovkin

[smashup]

Who wins this one?
Have to say I think Eubank Jnr can stay in there a long time with 3G and maybe be his toughest test to date
This would be an all out War.

If Eubank is brave, Golovkin inside 4. If Daddy comes up with a cunning plan, maybe longer. LEVELS!

An entire new level of douchebaggery from the Eubanks there. They sound like the Kardashians with their pithy soundbites and their obsession with image and social media. In light of what happened recently to Nick Blackwell the idea that

""The corner is there to help you clean your cuts up and put your Vaseline on, not to throw in the towel. If the going gets tough, you stay in there and take your beating like a man. That's what we sign up for, and that's all I meant when I said my corner don't throw in towels."

is pretty distasteful and another example of the unprofessional manner in which Jr's career is being managed. They treat their cornermen with disdain as well as the sport itself. If they want to go back to fighting till one drops and can't get back up to return punches then they better take the gloves off and head to a field or barn.

At least Brooks team waited until Kell was in an actual fight with Golovkin in the ring before they threw the towel in. It's not only towels the Eubanks don't own, they don't seem to own pens either. Pathetic.

It is a bad taste thing to say after father and son have comatosed 2 different fighters

This is just a direct reaction to Billy Joe Saunders calling 3G out, the Eubanks simply using the "any press is good press" way of thinking to stay in the race.


In true Pikey fashion Billy Joe calls out 3G from his Caravan


Love it!!!

I do look forward and actually enjoy Eubanks jnr fights..they are exciting.

BJS is given no credit for some reason when he is a nice slick boxing champion.

BJS beats jnr 2
BJS beats Jacobs
BJS beats GGG to the canvas in a good fight.

With recent evidence I've had another think about this (whether or not Jr (old man Eubank) bottled it before is irrelevant i'm talking about what-if NOW).

We've seen an aging Golovkin have two good struggles (although clear wins in my book) - with admittedly top-drawer, elite talent - and Jr step up to supermiddle to dominate a world-class veteran (before you spout AA is shit, he's only ever been whitewashed by the very elite) and ruthlessly annihilate a fellow young tough unexposed fella.

Now opponent wise, Golovkin has fought the far superior comp, however, stylewise it's a match made in heaven. Golovkin won't have to hunt him down he'll be meeting a fighter that will oblige him - Fire with fire.

By my eye Jr is the naturally bigger man/athlete, has a noticeable drop in speed and most importantly is in his pomp (still plenty of improvement left in the tank), a terrific combo puncher and has proven durability and fearless confidence to match Golovkin's.

What a difference a year makes.
