    Chis Eubank Jr.... Sure. Whatever boxing. Don't forget to gently scrub in between the toes of our bespeckled King Canelo with a luffa sponge and feed him grapes pre fight.

    I heard about this possibility the other day , it would be a kick in the bollocks for the U.K. promoters.
    Eubank isn’t the name he once was at World level .This could be a stretch even for Canelo’s marketing team to sell and justify this.
    We’ll see.

    Update! Looks like he’s signed with Boxxer (Ben Shalom) and that means , if it happens, Sky would take this fight in the U.K. naturally on Box office.

    "I'm very excited to have signed with Boxxer and [promoter] Ben Shalom," said Eubank Jr. "They fit the direction I want to go in. We have big plans over the next 12 to 24 months.

    "There are big fights in the pipeline and these guys can make it happen. This is a partnership. I have the freedom and the leeway to work how I want to work, which is very rare.

    "I'm in a position of power. I'm in a position to really control the direction that I want to go in so I'm excited."

    Eubank Jr has been heavily linked with a bout against Mexico's WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF super-middleweight title holder Alvarez, and says it is a meeting "the fans want to see".

    He added: "It's a fight I think I could win. The fans want to see Canelo in with guys who are going to press him, who are not going to back down, who are not going to shy away and crumble under the pressure. The fight fans know that’s the type of fighter I am."

    Shalom added: "We've had the privilege of working with Chris on some massive fight nights in the UK and there will be plenty more to come in the UK and worldwide. He is a bonafide pay-per-view star.

    "The hunger and ambition is there. We can't wait to see him back in action and involved in some massive fights."

    Alvarez should relinquish the titles so he can pursue the fights he wishes & not hold up division

    Sadly, way too predictable. But at least there's truth to the early fight posters. Quackity quack
