Eubank jr / Saunders same bill 9th May

[ross]

Jr is fighting an obscure Aussie - Les Sherrington.

Saunders doesn't have an opponent yet.

Apparently the Spike O'Sullivan fight - for Jr - fell through because Warren wanted a bunch of options on Spike.

He wanted Spike to sign a 5 fight deal including a mandatory rematch with Eubank if he won. Seems like Warren didnt fancy it making unreasonable demands. Spike has just signed with a new promoter so a long term deal was never on the table.

Sherringtons a poor fighter. A domestic fight with Ryder would be much better.

Warren said after the press conference that everything was agreed and that the stickng point was the rematch clause. Apparently OSullivans promoter wanted a shit load of money to defend that interim title. So a good way of getting out of the fight.

Im not sure why Warren would even be worried about any rematch because its quite plain to see that Eubank would beat OSullivan comfortably. Who has OSullivan beaten?

Warren on why the OSulivan fight fell through from 4.35 in.
