    He hasnt had to use workrate or go 12 rounds yet so how do you know he cant fight at a high workrate for 12 rounds?

    Hes not even using high workrate in his 6 and 8rounders. So how can anyone say he is in superior condition to a 12round fighter like saunders.

    Billy Joe is a fat blown up light middleweight

    I predict Billy Joe to impress with skills movement and ring craft , until the second half of the fight when Eubank Jr's constant body work , starts paying dividends ..
    Eubank Jnr by late brutal stoppage !!!

    This. For a site apparently used by intelligent, hardcore boxing enthusiasts, some of the things said about Billy Joe Saunders are pathetic, ill-informed YouTube level bullshiz.
    Saunders can box wonderfully well, has faster feet than Eubank, has never even been wobbled, let alone stopped, and has an infinitely superior record.

    Why are the odds so close then, if he's that much better? The bookies rarely screw up..

    Bottom line. Eubanks lives the life 24-7-365. Billy goes up to 16 stone!

    The bookis have to adjust their odds on account of people putting money on Eubank based on sentimental memories of his admittedly outstanding fighter of a dad. Saunders opened about 4-6. Not saying Eubank Jr. is useless, just that he's over hyped and unproven, with Billy Joe Saunders beginning to be undervalued to the point of disrespect.

    It might be better but your smoking crack, he's only fought british level cab drivers. Its not like he beat a world level fighter yet.

    Its foolish to argue just looking at their records who will win because they are both undefeated and its clearly a step up for both.

    Billy Joe has fought better fighters but some of his win's were pretty close decision's he aint no world level fighter. Chris jrs win's have been shut outs he hasn't had a close fight yet but then again thats what it should be the comp was pathetic.

    Billy Joe can't punch for ****, he cant win this fight because young christopher is going to eventually walk his ass down and stop him. Billy Joe better be fit because the only way he win's is to keep moving and keep active for the duration. I think he'll be too excited and blow his load early. Getting stopped in the 8th round.

    Saunders would be slated if he was fighting the calibre of opponents that Eubank has.

    Saunders would look like Gerald McClellan taking on the undersized Polish taxi drivers Eubank has assaulted. Catch yourself on as Jim Mcdonald would say.
