    If BJS was a class above Jr I guess Andre Ward was 2-3 classes above Kovalev?

    The same was said about Spike, Blackwell and Ryder a couple of years ago.

    FFS Sam Sheedy must also be too much for Jr, he got robbed blind against Langford

    Some Eubank haters on here actually thought that Blackwell could beat Eubank. One muppet who has since been banned insisted that Rosado would school Eubank.

    Honestly he is quite clearly the most underrated British fighter here, largely out of hatred.

    Eubank, Jr. had a big money fight with Golovkin, but he chickened out, got a big mouth, can't back his trash talk up.............

    He gets a lot of stick for the BJS loss, but he dominated BJS last half of the fight. Saunders was quite lucky to get the win (did deserve it but only just), but he goes on like it was a demolition job and so do a lot Eubank haters.

    And agreed on the Blackwell fight, he doesn't get enough credit for that performance. That really was a demolition job on a fighter a lot of people rated highly and expected to give CEJ a solid test.

    Needs the proper fights now though, and when he does I think he'll surprise quite a few people.

    That was a complete **** up but I honestly don't think he pussied out at all, his dad completely ****ed up the entire thing.
    I reckon he'll genuinely be willing to fight anyone, whether it happens or not cos of his dad's ego is another thing.

    What's your point mate? BJS was better than Eubank on the night in terms of boxing skills Imo. He was slipping a number of Eubanks shots and landing a few beauties of his own. Eubank' workrate is incredible and BJS just seen him out in the end thanks to the first 6 rounds.

    I don't hate Eubank, he's an exciting fighter but I believe skills beat workrate.
