    I think yilly will be much more physically tougher for eubank then saunders

    Yilly is bigger hits harder from what I seen I could be wrong

    I think with a neutral ref Chudinov might have actually beaten him as well. But yeah, 2nd with Chudinov being the 3rd.

    Yeah. While I think Junior should Win a decision here, remembering the Chudinov fight makes you think Avni is a live dog.

    He's definetly much bigger and stronger than Billy, but he has poor defence and will be at a considerable speed disadvantage.

    How? That ref let the fight go on far too long before stopping it. He helped Chudinov more than he helped Jr. The fight wasn't competitive in the slightest.

    It was hardly one sided. Chudinov held his own and would several rounds. Fight isn't fresh in my mind - but I remember the ref clearly showing favoritism towards Eubank Jr. and myself and others in the RBR weren't happy about it. Regardless.... It wasn't a completely one sided fight.

    Yeah you must have been having visions because it was very one sided, should have been stopped several rounds earlier, fair play to Chudinov though he would never quit. You need a bazooka to stop the Chudinov brothers, punches by men will not stop them marching forward.

    I don't wear Brittard goggles like you - you're cut from the cloth of Super Hans.

    Here were the cards at the time of the stoppage - In Eubanks backyard.

    103-106 | Guillermo Perez Pineda 101-108 | Leszek Jankowiak 102-107 - Hardly one sided.

    He battered him in a one sided fight. Plus the ref was neutral, he was Swedish.
    You're thinking of a different fight.

    Nah.... I'm thinking of the same fight. Just checked the RBR where several including myself posted during the fight, it was a competitive affair for most of the bout with Chudinov fading late. Eubank was allowed to get away with a ton of fouling as well.

    I am not a Brit, so I don't wear nothing British

    Those aren't that close to be fair but closer than should be expected considering the one sided nature of the fight

    It was in Eubanks backyard - the fight was closer than those scores reflect 103-106 being closer to the fight most fans saw. See RBR on here. Thanks.
