    Do you think this fight does bigger numbers than the first?

    Calm down Adam, you're starting to come across a little too fruity!

    I don't think I'm capable of articulating through the medium of human language just how awful at commentary Darren Barker is. The epitome of jobs for mates.

    I yearn for a nice quiet menacing ring walk.

    I know its a big fight and all because of the fan interest, but its funny how both Benn and Eubank treat this as something special.

    Its not. Its a cash crab between two sons of legendary boxers; sons who have failed to achieve a quarter of what their fathers did.

    Neither has even won a world title... Its rather sad that this will be both men´s career peaks.

    As a long time Eubank Jr fan I still can’t believe it’s come to him being 50/50 with Benn.

    A pretty deserved 50/50

    Jr has lost all of his attributes.
    Speed, Engine and Chin.

    I do think he should retire win or lose. Maybe a draw and he can come back for another payday I suppose lol.

    CEJ is going to take forever with his entrance as well. This fight might not start for another 30 minutes.

    Even more shocking, Darren Barker puts Adam Smith and Barry Jones to shame.:lol:

    You know what would've been nice, if DAZN brought along Jimmy Lennon Jr to announce Eubank-Benn 2 (4 if you count father's bouts) just as he did on Showtime in 1993.

    British grudge matches are far more important than world title fights to us Brits

    yes because the 1st one people thought it was going to be uncompetitive and it turned out to be a fight of the year contender.
