Saunders vs Eubank 2, how does it go? Heres my take.

I have an idea it will be almost exactly the same as the first.

There is a reason why it played out like it did and nothing has changed. Eubank is still a strong, athletic, big middleweight with heavy feet, low workrate and telegraphed punches. And Saunders is still the elusive, speedy boxer with fast feet and headmovement with a very good jab.

Saunders with the superior boxing skills, movement and speed (imo) made eubank look completely daft with his footwork, he peppered his face with right jabs and swept the first 5rounds easily. Now i knew that was going to happen, whilst many thought eubank was going to demolish saunders quicksmart. You dont go from demolishing latvian cabdrivers to demolishing european champions in 1 fight. The fight played out as it should of have based on each others skills and experience, billy being the more skillful and experienced, sharper and smarter. The second half of the fight was closer than people thought with saunders slowing down and getting pressured by the bigger and stronger eubanks, but still making chris miss alot. the rounds in which chris won he won them big with some beefy shots hooks and uppercuts. But i scored the fight 8-4 in saunders favour so it wasnt as one sided as people made it out to be. The last round Billy outlanded eubank, and inbetween the 6-12 he nicked a few more rounds, as he established his jab again, whilst the posers son posed.

The second fight will be the same, Eubank didnt throw the fight away, he was comprehensively schooled for the first 5 rounds.
I can only see Saunders putting more shots together and throwing more left crosses which he left out in the first fight. i Can see Eubank hurried into making the fight his straight from the off, but getting caught with something big as he tries again to 'demolish' saunders.
It will be similar to Martinez vs Chavez Jr.

It will go the Distance because im pretty sure Chris has some of his dads iron jaw genes. And chris may even land a few more this time, And still the winner will be Billy Joe Saunders. And hopefully it will for the world title.

 

Neither will win a world title. The last fight showed they are fringe world class at best.

 

TL;DR

Saunders does another job on chris eubank jr.

 

dont think saunders could beat lee?

 

Nope.

Saunders absolutely died on his **** after 5 rounds and I can see Lee landing and knocking him out within 8.

 

Wouldn't say he died on his Ass, he was weakening. But he still took rounds of eubank. Lee isn't hard to outbox, lee has the gamechanger though.

 

Saunders didn't win the first fight and he won't win a second fight no matter what the judges say.

It's just that Eubank took the fight a bit earlier than he should have, he needed to have at least one or two more step-up fights before going from C grade to A grade. That mistake cost him a little setback on his career but he proved on his last fight that he (mentally) recovered tremendously.

The fight was a little bit like Groves vs Degale, although both great fighters(like BJS & Eubank Jr) I regard Degale higher than Groves but that controversial loss was a setback on his career as it was for Eubank Jr.

 

Saunders will beat Andy Lee.

 

Considering Eubank's punch output is so low, it's worrying that Saunders was tiring as he did.

Saunders is feather fisted and that's where his issue will be at world level. Nobody will respect him.

 

Really don't know how people can score it to eubank. but ah well looking to the rematch. Maybe if Saunders lands the harder blows next time, than maybe people will look at it different, Saunders outlanded eubank and made him miss. Eubank landed a few big shots that Saunder's took well. Ive just watched it again and my opinion doesn't change.

 

Everybody seem to be overlooking this fact.
BJS will soon out point Andy handy.
No way does limited, 20-punches-a-round Lee beat slick-boxing BJS.
After winning the title from Lee if he fights CEJ again I think billy Joe wins again.

 

Saunders team throws in the towel round 8

 

I think Lee will knock him out too, Lee will be a massive step up

 

Billy's corner throws in the towel against eubank. Jim ydskab mate.

 

Saunders v Lee will play out the same as saunders eubank. Saunders wins early rounds then Lee will come in late when saunders starts to tire as usual. The only difference will be as somebody already said is that lee has the game changer! Billy joes stamina just isnt good enough. If Lee lands the left hook in the late rounds , its over
