    Eubank gassed out vs. BJS after 5-6 rounds. He was huffing and puffing, his stamina is sh**. I've never seen GGG gas out before.

    I hated this fight at first but now I'm seriously hyped for it.

    If you think he's capable of that, then sure. But I think it's worth remembering that Jr hasn't worked every second of 12 rounds in his career either, assuming you're of the opinion he just 'started late' against Saunders (which I'm not, but some people are).

    Yes I 100% believe he started late against BJS, you have to remember he had never been past 8 rounds in a real fighting situation before and that was a 12 round fight. He's fought past 10 rounds a few times now at much stiffer paces than that fight and he did pour it on in the 2nd half as well.

    You have to give BJS credit as well he's a super slick south paw, I don't think anyone including GGG could beat him easily @ 160.

    CEJ has not been managed well up to this point and he could improve a bit with more experience. I am still of the opinion that there is no fighter in the division that you could fight that would prepare you 100% for GGG, so you just have to train like a beast and back yourself and your skills.

    CEJ is the only guy in the division that is doing these things at the moment, and he doesn't need this fight. In fact this fight would be much bigger if he revenged BJS and then fought GGG, which would be two huge pay days instead of one.

    I dont believe he started late, it was a massive step up in class and he looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights for 6 rounds as he couldnt deal with the movment of BJS. When Saunders slowed down Eubank woke up and credit to him for digging in.

    This is another HUGE step up class and if CEJ freezes then its going to be a painful night.

    Having said that i believe the best way to beat GGG is speed and volume. You need an excellent chin also because GGG will catch you at somepoint.

    Well, let's all just hope it gets signed at some point. We were told it'd be last Monday and then during last week, yet we still haven't got anything official.

    Whatever the CEJ haters would like to say, he definitely did not embarrass himself in that fight, tbh he proved he could fight at the level and since then he has looked to improve further.

    No matter what you think of Chudinov, Jeter, Spike, Blackwell and Doran, they are much better fighters than he was fighting before BJS.

    GGG is a very huge step up, but CEJ has a chip on his shoulder now and he's not going in and playing games against GGG he's coming to fight. His chin is the goods and he's willing to take 1 to land 3 in return and that is going to be his key to success.

    I think that Eubank might be the one that will gas,vs BSJ first 6 rounds he didnt fight at all,was so confused.He does a lot of showboating and stuff for no reason all the time.

    As i said before Eubank can cause problems to Golovkin due to his speed,but even if he has chin...GG can hurt him with body shots still,like he did vs Lemieux.

    CST bumped a load of his threads, presumably to highlight to both The Shaftgrasper and mods quite how deranged he is.

    No hate at all. Just stating my opinion that GGG is no spring chicken. He's actually one of my favorite fighters.
