    For about 4 years now I've thought about and wanted to see this fight and I really think it should be made. Despite his record Rosado is still a name, a game fighter with a decent following and an ability to sell a fight. Eubank Jnr needs to stay busy and this would have been perfect for him, instead Rosado is adding another L to his record in 6 weeks against Jacobs.

    Jacobs v Rosado must be the most pointless fight ive ever heard of

    I think Eubank would do some damage to Rosado he has perfect style and skill set to make Eubank look a million dollars.

    Rosado can actually box a bit, so it isn’t an easy right for Eubank at all. He should win, especially given how many tough fights Rosado has had, but it’s no pushover for him. Rosado is better than his record suggests

    Rosado has to be the worst boxer out there getting top fights....

    He is absolutely awful....At his peak he was a contender at best

    Why anyone would think Eubank would fight him is beyond stupid

    Rosado isn’t awful in any way shape or form. You’re right he’s only ever been a contender but awful? No, absolutely not. And the fact is is that Eubank Jr isn’t that good against anyone who can box a bit, which Rosado can to an extent. What he lacks is power and top end boxing ability. I don’t think anyone is picking him to win at all. It’s just not a blowout for Eubank IMO

    Im not a Eubank fan but what does he gain by fighting Rosado....It would never happen

    The fact that Jacobs is willing to fight him tells you about the state of USA boxing at the moment

    Eubank needs to get more active , is there any word on his next fight ? Him v Lemieux would be fun !

    What does he gain? Well it would probably be his second best win (I’m not counting the Korobov injury). That’s about it really. But he hasn’t had much to gain from a lot of his fights really. It’s not a fight I want to see personally, not if he’s trying to fight Charlo who will destroy him.

    Rosado-Jacobs at 168 is a terrible fight. Jacobs has proved himself to be way beyond that sort of level a long time ago

    I read that Eubank vs Murata is a possibility next. I really like that fight.

    I hope Jr fights Murata, and if he does don't call him a bum.

    Murata is a very good fighter, think he would beat GGG tbh.
    The Ndam loss was one of the most despicable I have ever seen, and don't know why he performed so poorly in the 1st against Brant but he made up for it in the rematch.

    At least Murata is in his prime, no excuses there

    Rosado is a punching bag, all he has is a high guard defense and thats about it. Not a mover at all.
    Jr eats the high guard style for breakfast

    Junior has treaded water for too long now. He just isn’t active enough (before Covid). I really enjoy watching him fight when he’s matched well.
