    He would make money in the UK, the U.S., and Mexico.

    Multiple sources of income.

    Eubank isn't carrying much extra weight at 168 opposed to 160. If he seems slow and stiff at 168 it's because he's slow and stiff. Eubank isn't very good.

    Eubank can't handle Canelo's size or power. Make a rehydration clause of 5 pounds after the weigh-in, and he could have a chance at 160.

    Why go for Eubank's fake IBO title ?
    Seems like a cherry pick

    168 is still **** so at least go for the WBSS winner and WBA champ Mundo Smith

    Why would DAZN pay Canelo to go the UK ?

    No way does Canelo ever leave the USA/Mexico

    He makes more money there, and he never loses a fight so long as he can stay on his feet.

    Canelo stops Eubank Jr at 160. Canelo has too much boxing ability for Eubank Jr. He has made some small improvements, but Canelo is a long way above Eubank. Country Miles above.

    For anyone who seriously thinks Chris Eubank Jr can beat Canelo Alvarez, honestly.... what's wrong with you? Seek some professional help.

    Its just wishful thinking.

    Just like when you swore GGG would or could KO Canelo, twice.

    Yep, wishful thinking. Kind of like hoping the general public will forget what actually transpired in both matches, and buy into the GB narrative you're pushing.

    eubank brings nothing to the table. at least fielding had a trinket of sorts. canelo will chase genuine w/c pros if theres no trinket.

    Canelo-Eubank Jr at 168 is a good, competitive fight. Would love to see it.

    Of course he could beat Canelo, it’s not out of the question. Canelo will be dwarfed and Eubank is durable with an excellent tank and crazy workrate.

    Canelo wouldnt really be 'dwarfed'.

    Eubank is only 5'11'', an inch taller than G and other Canelo opponenets like Trout.
    But while being an inch taller, hes physically not as imposing as G, and Canelos defense and countering would slash Eubanks workrate.

    Hard not to see a Canelo win.
