    FFS Christopher, you could have picked an easier stylistic match up

    But I like it, should have taken the Charlo fight though think its an easier style to beat tbh

    Both their careers on the line.

    I pick Korobov by UD. The is a very unexpected fight but it's the exact fight Eubank needs to win if he wants anyone other than his blind fanbase to take him serious.

    Eubank is not good enough to tie a prime Matt's shoelaces, he would need to be totally shot to lose to Jr.

    Matty should win really. Matty can box Chris is really wild at times. Eubank needs to ko him or mawl him to a decision. Mattty lacks any grit or toughness . just one gear doesnt turn it up but is always in a close match

    Not sure about him lacking grit or toughness, I think he has shown pluck when he's been hurt even when caught by a big puncher in Lee, he stayed on his feet, from memory. Tend to agree with you though about him being one paced.

    Agree here also, if he is careful and avoids being reckless, he should cruise to a points win but PBC is very dodgy.

    Forget Charlo he's still hiding from Korobov

    Eubank will win a UD. Even though he'll lose the first 7 rounds, he'll close strong in the last three. That'll be more than enough to get him a decision on a PBC card.

    So long as Matty's gas tank can last out over 12 he should be able to decision Eubank. If he starts blowing big time he could be in trouble though. I hope they don't screw him if it's close, he's has some rotten luck on the cards.

    Well, maybe it will change to Korobov by brutal KO before long.:stick:

    Since it's at MW, maybe I can give you a little hope. After not making 160 for over 2 years... Eubank might end up being badly drained and suffer the brutal consequences.:clapclap:

    Chris Eubank Jr. is a vulture, always circling around looking for corpses.
