Eubank Jnr v Golovkin

[imp]

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.
