    The only fight I want to see Eubank Jnr in at the moment, I know I've said this a lot on here, is against Gabriel Rosado. This new version of Rosado would trouble Jnr.

    At one stage I thought that was a poor fight but post Covid and with CEJ inactivity that could be a good match up.
    Rosado has been in with everyone as well so a good barometer or where Junior is at.
    I just want to see him get in with someone decent. If he looses fine. He's another one of these annoying fighters who tells everyone how good he is and then doesn't prove it. He came back from the BJS loss pretty well, Spike, Blackwell, Doran all decent wins at that point. Then stepped up a bit later to fight a shop worn but still dangerous Abraham. Since the Groves loss nothing of note because De Gale had one arm.
    Wasting time

    Rosado is again busy trying to test himself against the best with a fight with Munguia probably at the end of the year, he's a credit to the sport, Jnr is a joke at this point.

    It’s a shame with Eubank because he is actually talented to an extent. He’s not a Campbell Hatton living off his dads name. He could actually go somewhere and do something quite good.

    Agreed, but he needs to start fighting the top guys now. He's probably got 3 years left.

    His best days wasted and behind him - big fight left v BJS and maybe a World Title Shot where he will come up short then game over.

    I think this is most probable. Wasted his prime years.

    I want Jr to step it up dramatically, he hasn't got time to be messing around, I think we have all had enough of him calling out Canelo and Golovkin and then fighting somebody like Marcus Morrison.

    But.. after losing his brother is tragic circumstances not so long ago I will let this one slide, give him zero stick and wish him the best for Saturday night.

    So Eubank is over the hill and still fighting bums whilst pretending he is an up and coming contender.

    I actually like the man and find him entertaining but he really does need to step up and stay stepped up between now until retirement!

    Eubank acting as if this guy is any sort of opposition. His record is dreadful - last 3 opponents have lost all of their last 6 fights except for a single win and a single draw. This is a step back from even Mark Morrison or whatever his name is.

    don't know much about this opponent except from a quick check on boxrec but surely should be stopping these sort guys.

    What you all think in first 3 rounds ?

    I'd be shocked if it went any further than 3 rounds. Eubank is talking about fighting Golovkin , Liam Williams or Andrade next. His preparation will have been a few rounds against Korobov where he was getting soundly outboxed and got lucky with an injury to his opponent, a distance fight against Morrison who is a domestic level fighter, and a bout against this scrub.

    I'll give the Eubanks one thing, whatever ****ing jedi mind tricks they manage to pull off to get Eubank Jr, a fighter who has literally done nothing of any note at world level, except for lose, a slot as the new face of Sky Sports Boxing, they are to be commended.
