    Im just trying to get my head around the fact that eubanks jr has been made favourite by most people on the british forum. Well chris eubanks is definitely bigger, looks stronger with a better punch, the speed difference is minimal and hes been feasting on complete bums his best win is probably a long washed up lmw in bradley pryce. And then after that we got Billy Joe Saunders the more schooled, more technical and more varied fighter with loads more workrate and far better footwork, proven against good fighters like John Ryder and the unbeaten italian. i can see billy schooling eubanks, really badly schooling him, a complete shutout. a rigondeaux vs donaire sort of schooling. Am i missing What everybody see's from eubanks, hes obviously a good athlete, but when it comes to actually outboxing someone for the full 12 rounds he will become unstuck.

    Billy Joe Saunders by absolute Schooling. :deal

    Most people i know think Saunders should win. The people on the forum are saying Eubank has a good chance of winning. It wont be a schooling either way Are you on the cider in your caravan?

    Yeah, I'm baffled by it because so far Eubank Jr has been facing a complete bum carousel. Saunders has been facing a string of decent competitors and undefeated prospects.

    Saunders will likely win by a wide UD

    Although I will be rooting for Eubank as Saunders just comes across like a POS im my opinion.

    Carl Froch was raving about Eubank Jnr saying that the talk is far from just hot air.

    I originally though BJS would win but that statement has made me think it could be a lot closer than I originally thought. Froch is hardly one to give glowing compliments, especially after that sky footage that was shown.

    Froch and Adam Booth have both said he is something special,if Saunders gets beat I dont think he will be able to cope with it,Eubank is either the real deal or overhyped,I think he either puts on a great performance or else gets beaten easily,I cant see there being an inbetween..

    It'll be like Martinez/Chavez Jr. Shutout apart from Eubank hurting Saunders randomly but not being able to finish the job, or maybe he will...

    Eubank dropped the S from the end of his name somewhere through his first 10 fights I believe so it is now Eubank.

    Whilst Eubanks opponents have not been world beater he has face some useful guys such as curruthers.

    Eubank will be massive next to BJS.

    BJS struggled badly with John Ryder. I think Eubank will work when he has to.

    Size, power and fitness I believe go to Eubank.

    Should be enough to see him through I think.
