    I think Golovkin destroys Jr, Jacobs beats him and that's why he has gone back down the British title level.

    But maybe if Jr can iron a few things out and tighten things up who knows what he will be in a 12-18 months.

    Conspiracy ?

    The whole crowd, and the travellers were against you ?

    You know far more than Woodhall.

    Or you're simply another a casual who is taken in by the Eubank hype ?



    :patsch

    Decent chin, so always the option as a top level punch bag.

    The top 3-4 in the division would iron junior out.

    I have to admit I'm becoming a believer in Eubank jr after his last few fights. Tonight I saw him use new elements to his game, such as a very good jab, and improved, more subtle defensive moves in close which I hadnt seen before. He is obviously an incredible athlete with an amazing engine and recuperative powers too.
    A lot of guys with a lot less have gone a long way....

    Maybe, he doesn't have the fundamentals for me, he's good when the punches are flying he likes a brawl. I don't know if he knows how to make openings that aren't a plate, it was quite easy to hit Blackwell tonight.

    Looking forward to the Saunders rematch!

    Hope Blackwell recovers from this. The Fight should of been stopped 2 rounds earlier imo
    He had no power left in his punches towards the end and as a young fighter his corner should of pulled him out for his own safety. Sad to see

    The TV coverage ended without us knowing how NB is doing.
    I sincerely hope he is ok....

    Agree with this. He looked good tonight. Still think his left hook is his power punch but he threw the right mainly tonight.

    Always get a good tear up when CEJ is involved.

    He showed all of that pre-Saunders. He stills winds those shots up with poor feet, lunges and leaves himself open. He looks awkward and vulnerable. But when he lets his hands go at a static target he's immense.

    Eubank has improved from the Saunders fight but he isn't hard to hit and he only has one way to fight. If he has to change something or adapt mid fight, I'm not sure he can do it.

    Are you saying he is proven beyond domestic level? He isn't.

    I like watching him box, I enjoy his antics in the ring. Some things he does are sloppy but if Saunders can win a strap then so can Eubank Jr.
