He dropped his opponent 3/4 times. And all but one were clean knock downs. He outclassed him. I would either face Benn or another top British fighter. He beats Saunders then what? People will say he was shot or not the same after Canelo. Its a no win situation. And honestly the Benn fight might be more of a ticket seller with both of thier names known and people want to see it. And Benn is UNBEATEN Saunders is not.
So in summary 32 years old Nxtgen on the back of his shorts Only one World Title shot in 34 fights Lost that Next fight - a guy at 147, a guy at 154 and a semi retired ex World Champ. This is ridiculous
Not even sure Eubank wants a world title he just wants to be a boxer (and that's fair enough) but he could be a world champ of his own making with some decent match making. Fighting the ghost of Kell Brook WTF? Who wants to see that. If Crawford is stopping Brook in 4 then a guy who weighs another 10-15lbs on him is surely asking for trouble. Why would Kell even take it? No guarantee he gets past Khan as they are both shot to bits. Strange figtht, bit like Kell V GGG to be honest. Eubank clearly doesn't like risk he's only done it once of his own back VS BJS, he probably isn't getting a GGG fight anytime soon (and he shouldn't either) so he may as well aim for Charlo and hope he can fluke a win.
The only real stumbling block to this fight happening is that I highly doubt Saunders would want to give Eubank Jr the satisfaction of getting a big payday out of him (even though it makes sense financially for Saunders too).
This content is protected Would be a good fight this. Wonder how many it would sell in Derby to make it viable?
Not interested in eubank jr vs Saunders or brook thanks. Id rather see him fight rosado or the ggg/murata winner
The Parker fight is a really good matchup but he isn’t really a name and would Eubank entertain moving up again? It’s also not PPV worthy which could be a stumbling block.
BJS would be an alright fight, a little bit of intigue as long as it’s at 160, given we all know BJS is better it’s just whether he has the desire. Looks as though he’s pricing himself out though, asking for $5m is laughable.
