    That awkward feeling when you realize that Eubank against Benn is the biggest fight at middleweight since Golovkin-Murata.

    All depends on how much Smith has left, retirement for him if he loses I suspect.

    At his best he would have battered him though.

    He’d’ve found the gaps, body shots, uppercuts with well placed combinations and putting him in his box with counter rights and with that underrated offensive jab.

    I think Mckenna beats him tonight- Smith over the hill. McKenna hungrier

    Middleweight division is a wasteland arguably the weakest its been in history and in reality this is a bit of crap fight but I'm still looking forward to it atleast both fighters done a good job hyping it up.

    To us British fans, this is a very very deep rivalry that dates back decades - Benn and Eubank (the fathers) are actually really well known here.

    We know, but here's the catch, they're all time great British Super Middleweights, and these are just their hacky spoiled rotten entitled nepo babies, with maybe a fourth of their father's abilities.:lol:

    No, I can't. They made it to the top of the heap based on their talent not their name. These two without the famous last names, would be Ben Whittaker level jokes. At least Benn anyway. CEJ at least has a few decent wins to his name, at best he's a BJS level underachiever.

    I'm glad you said Eubank is BJS level I never understood the hype BJS got with people making out he was some type of boxing genius because he beat the very limited David Lemieux.

    Don't get me wrong, I love BJS and his style, and he's clearly a level or two above Eubank Jr., as evidenced by the fact that he beat him pretty handily IMO. But career wise, yeah... they're similar. But I think had Saunders really applied himself and taken his career a little more seriously, he couldn't been great. After all, I am one of his biggest hypers on here going back to 2014.
