    Fight week, so how does everyone see this going?

    I have a nagging feeling that Eubank will outpoint Catterall.

    Not keen on either fighter but Catterall is more proven,so i go for him on points.A late stoppage is also possible

    I think most will agree with you. I think stepping up in weight and Catterall’s usual low output will cost him.

    I have a feeling it is going to be pretty boring to watch.

    It's one of them, where it should be a fight you're excited about, but it has stinker written over it.

    The undercard is once again dreadful

    Catterall UD/maybe MD after a fairly dull fight. Catterall last stopped a journeyman six years ago so can’t see it happening here.

    Such a cliche, but levels, innit? Eubank hasn’t fought anyone beyond English/Irish title level and I don’t think he’s shown anything to prove he’s massively better than that. And Catterall isn’t exactly shot to bits yet either. Unless he’s suddenly become so in the last few months, can’t see a different outcome.

    Eubank points. Think Catterall has been poor the last 2 fights and not sure what motivation he has after losing out on titles & big fights as of late.

    I have never understood that argument. If he's not boxed anyone at world level, then I think it's unfair to dismiss his chances on the basis of 'levels'. Just about every good boxer coming up faces boxers who are more experienced and more proven. That being said, Catterall should really have had the undisputed championship having beat Taylor in Scotland so he is pretty good. Eubank seems a lot more likeable than the other Eubank, so I wouldn't mind seeing him do well, but Catterall is one of my favourite boxers to watch. Hopefully it'll be a decent one and not a "chess match" as many are probably quite rightly predicting.

    Does your username have anything to do with The Office? Chris Finch was my favourite character out of that.

    I'm also leaning towards a points win for Eubank.

    Matchroom don't care about Catterall.

    My prediction is it’s a guaranteed stinker. I’m going out for a few drinks on Saturday and can safely say I’m not remotely bothered about missing it.

    I predict with 100% confidence that people will fall asleep during this fight.

    A bit like the Pope Jake Paul fight last week, I see myself watching until the main event then switching off.

    Just cannot watch boring Jack and Eubank around the same level of excitement.

    The prime days of Joey 12 provided far more entertainment than either of these two.

    This surely a 12 round stinker unless Turkey has sneaked in a huge entertainment bonus or KO bonus.

    Harlem is one of the hardest trainers I’ve ever come across. If this translates in the ring, he has every chance of the upset tomorrow night.

    Can see this being a pretty dull fight, good chance I will have taken the 10 count and be asleep before the end.
