    Whittaker is too big for Chris

    He'd box him around for 12

    Whitaker doesn`t have the power and Chris is far bigger and better than anyone Whitaker has fought.

    Power to go 12 rounds? I never said he'd knock him out did I?I clearly say 12 rounds

    Chris is a lot smaller, despite how good he is compared to Whittakers opposion so far
    Size matters

    Whitaker won`t be able to keep Chis off, he`ll out-work Ben.

    You mean Eubank who takes rounds off and hardly throws massive amounts of punches? Cool

    Watch his fight v Saunders, Whitaker has never faced anything like that and would have been easily out-boxed by Saunders, Whitaker is untested at that level.

    Whittaker won a silver medal at the Olympics, I think he will be ok boxing against a smaller, older and probably past peak Eubank Jnr.

    That was a decade ago. Fair play for backing your man though. Interesting fight if it was to ever happen (it won’t).

    lol winning a silver against amateurs in a three rounder doesn`t you can take on a pro that pushed a former world champ like Billy Joe to the limit.

    I don`t actually rate Eubank that much I just feel he`s been in at a higher level than Whitaker who has never fought a big name or even a top 10 contender.

    Of course he has boxed at a higher level because he been a pro far, far longer.

    Mate he boxes at 175lbs, Eubank is essentially a middleweight. I think he will be ok and I wouldn’t underestimate his amateur pedigree which is no joke.

    In other words Whitaker is unproven at that level so far.

    None of those amateuers that he fought were as good as Eubank and they were just three round fights, plus Whitaker doesn`t have the power of a 175lbs fighter or of a middleweight, he is a poor finisher thus far.
