Eubank Jr v GGG figthing in autumn

[Dia bando]

GGG will dismantle him can't see Jr lasting the distance.
I don't think Eubank is the man to defeat GGG.

[Dark Lord Al]

I look forward to this fight , a calculated power punching assassin v a young strong steel chinned hungry challenger.
I has classic written all over it, PPV or not I will be watching.

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

[Master]

I do not think it will be easy but Junior has good stamina and can cause some problems with his fast hands.

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.

[Primo Carnera]

I don't buy into this myth that Eubank beats everyone GGG has beat. What is that based on?
I don't think he beats Lemieux, Murray, Stevens, maybe not Geale, maybe not Matthew Macklin ffs!
And there's been a lot of missed "deadlines" for this fight to happen.
The hype machine has gone into overdrive yet again.

[Dark Lord Al]

When I said classic , I was talking from a personal view.
GGG will likely punish Eubank Jr , that for me is classic however Jr has shown he is fearless so he has as much chance as anybody GGG has fought.

Golovkin-Eubank: Hearn Explains Why Deal is Not Finalized, Yet - Boxing News

I said in an earlier post about the missed deadlines and delays. Look at this logically, there can only be 1 reason this fight has not been finalized, and that is that team Eubank are holding it up , probably by asking too much money.
If you are the challenger, and you want , Arguably, one of the best World Champions out there to come to your home to fight you, then naturally you need to take the short end of the wedge, and quite considerably so.
Look at Brook v Vargas for example. Vargas is coming over, and is getting more than Brook. that's the stumbling block , but that's the way it is.
Now you might say "GGG is pricing himself out of it", well ok, maybe so, but who is to say what price he should or shouldn't demand to defend his titles in the challenger's own back yard? he has every right to demand whatever he wants, and if they can't agree that, move on. After all, HE IS THE CHAMPION!
