    B interesting to see him in with a genuine domestic super middle weight to see if the power hype is justified

    I'm surprised as Eddie Hearn if I remember correctly dismissed him before. Also I thought Eddie doesn't want any fighters from Warren's stable.

    This is good for Cox though, hopefully he can get in with Ryder/Fielding or Callum Smith. I thought no promotor would be interested in him after he left Warren particularly after the inactivity and his legal troubles. I think he was close to getting a shot at Sturm or Chudinov before for the WBA regular title.

    I doubt Hearn is to interested in trying to build him up/ I can see him sticking him in The Fielding-Ryder winner

    I like it and I want to see the Eubank fight if CEJr stays at 168.

    Can see Hearn sticking him in with Smith/Degale as a domestic defence after a couple of fights.

    I don't really rate him as he's barely fought anyone of note yet.

    Hearn looks for personalities, cox comes.across as an animal which is something eddie can work with BUT as far as cox's boxing goes its domestic level at best.

    Think he is very underrated and a lot of highly rated pros talk highly of him, looks very dangerous really think we could cause all domestic fighters problems and progress onto euro level with hearn

    Yeah feed him fielding build him up a bit then put him in with smith when Callum is champion and Hearn has got a British Ppv championship fight.

    Eddie is all about the dollars lol.

    He should rematch Obodai Sai and give him another pay day after he robbed him blind all those years ago. When the going gets tough Cox will just hit people in the balls.

    Why did they have to give him a tune up this easy?
    Cox needs to fight blokes with a pulse don't you think?

    Are they just trying to get him in to a cheap mando spot winning some belt?
    FFS Taylor is a middleweight and not a very good one @ that!
