    degale is overated and eubank jnr has a lot to learn, neither of them have good power and i think it would be a close fight.

    this fight is going to happen, i was at eubanks fight last night and sat a couple seats over from me was jim mcdonnell (degales trainer) sat on his own taking notes at the end of all the rounds, after his fight got up and left. Eubank is about a year or so away from this, but wouldnt surprise me if they put him in with him as it seams eubanks getting matched pretty hard so far

    DeGale would take him apart if this happens any time soon, 18 months - 2 years and it's possible, I doubt it though, Eubank looks meh.

    DeGale would smash him pretty easily I'll credit Jr for how well he has done so far but I honestly think he gets beat badly by DeGale It could possibly ruin his career If he takes this fight in the near future, IMO I will add.

    I really thinkg Euban Jr is underrated. I pick degale right now but of the 2 I think Eubank Jr has the brighter future.
    I think Eubank has ok power maybe not 1 punk ko power but once he starts throwing more combos we will see his ko ratio go up.

    Wouldn't like to see this happen until 2014 at the earliest, and only if Jr remains undefeated. Fatty will probably secure him a WBC Youth title or some such in the next year or so

    Eubank Jr. has some talent, but there's far better British / Irish up and comers around his weight on current talent. Groves and DeGale have way too much for him at the weight above. Groves would take his head off with the low left hand he holds. Billy Joe Saunders is too quick and talented for him at middle. With his slow work rate, BJS would just rack up round after round. I think even Eamonn O'Kane and John Ryder would be too much for him right now. He's been matched hard so fair play for that, but I can't see him going much further than British title level given the strength of the divisions he's in and around.

    Eubank Jr invites pressure and wouldnt have the power to discourage the larger Degale.

    Degale late stoppage or wide decision.

    Eubank JR is too slick for the slick DeGale.

    Since the Groves fight I have warmed to DeGale as he has recognised how much he ****ed up the P.R. war with Groves and has since seemed a decent guy in interviews.

    That said, I like Eubank JR as well, and seeing as his name is Eubank I think I will support him blindly. Eubank to win by devastating KO. :)

    DeGale easily. Mick would be made to put CEJ in there with him next year, nowhere near ready
