Eubank Jr v GGG figthing in autumn

[Gandalf]

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).

If he is to fight Golovkin then hats off to him. That's a fantastic thing. I just don't think it will be that competitive though. That's not so much a slur on Eubank, but more that I think Golovkin is that good whence my reference to being Lacy'ed and Eubank'ed. 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.

Fascinating fight to bet on! See what Fenster says and then judge!

I look forward to this fight , a calculated power punching assassin v a young strong steel chinned hungry challenger.

channel 5, best check your areal in plenty of time tho coz the signal can be rough on that channel

I still can't understand how anyone gives Jr a chance. Apart from being young and strong (he's an overrated puncher) what does he bring to the table?

He's not outboxing Golovkin, he was clueless against Billy Joe (350 amateur fights to 30?). Everytime he fights a hard bastard he gets into a punch-up, good luck beating Golovkin like that. And good luck throwing those uppercuts against GGG. As for that showboating bollocks, Golovkin will be on top of him before he's finished thinking about it.

I definitely think the old man sees this as his jump in class to upset Benn. However, he doesn't seem to realise that Golovkin would have whooped him and Benn.

eubank went into the saunders fight having fought absolutely no one and having only had a hand full of rounds


and he did give a good account of himself, I don't think you could say he was clueless, I haven't seen saunders struggle with anyone else


I reckon eubank would have a good chance of winning that fight now


I really don't think he will beat Golovkin tho

I said exactly the same thing just this morning, he may as well forget about the upercuts because they just aint landing against GGG, hopefully he will scrap the showboating shite as well and realise he is going to be is a serious scrap.

I think it'll be a good fight but I can't see anything other than a pretty easy win for GGG

I am not sure how he would do against those guys because GGG has not faced anyone in there class for me to tell how he would do. I just like this fight because this is the best opponent i think he has faced out side David maybe thats best he fought being champ as long as he has been.
