    This is a fight full of imponderables. I'm taking a punt and saying Eubank. BJS isn't a punishing puncher, but that said EJ hasn't been even remotely tested.

    Gym strength maybe, boxing strength nahhh. Punching power hell no.

    Plus he did do pretty well against Billy, took some rounds off him

    If BJS had fought the same 18 opponents Eubank has boxed how many stoppages would he have? id say more than 13

    If Eubank had a mission to knock every one of those opponents out i'd say he would have. He fought a couple of blokes with just his left hand and still easily beat them. Just trying to develop the jab and more power in his left.

    To be fair I've not watched all his 18 bouts so maybe fair enough, see what happens soon enough!

    I would not disagree that BJS does pack some power in those punches he whips in, I'm interested to see how Eubank holds up against that as up to this point his chin has in no way been tested!! So many ifs, buts and maybes in this fight!! Should be a *******!! Hard to call it, and I can see why BJS is the favourite, but I think CEJ will win somehow!!??

    The British section of ESB used to be the sensible section, but its obviously nosedived judging by some of the drivel posted lately.

    I really think Eubank is going to have a showcase performance
