    Prime for most guys is about 27-32. That's when your top physical and mental attributes are in collusion with each other. Guys usually start a swift decline at about 33.

    Calzaghe had a lot of heart. Kessler punched him in the face for 12 rounds but he found a way to win.

    Unless you are a good boxer, Eubank Jr beats you, if your a good boxer, you beat Eubank Jr, you name any come forward fighter who doesnt like to box but bang, Eubank Jr beats them.

    He's fresh meat right now imo.

    168 is pretty weak at the moment....there's no Calzaghe....there's no Ward and CEJ takes a L to all the top guys at both 160 and 168.

    The guy has talent, raw natural talent but time waits for no man and the gap for him to truly learn the craft is ebbing away.

    And that was a fresh prime Kessler, not the past prime older version who bested Froch.

    But based on what?

    His best win to date is Spike Sullivan.

    The sooner we see him on with a consecutive amount of actual world level opponent then we can say what he does or doesn't do.

    I wouldn't go that far, but I get you. There are come-forward fighters who are incredibly gifted boxers like Dwight Muhammad Qawi and J.C. Chavez. They'd beat Eubank easily. But no, I guy just standing there and trading punches with CEJ, won't work out so well.

    This has to be one of the most ridiculously unnecessary questions posed in this forum ever. How can people actually see a need to debate this?

    Eubank would totally obliterate glass jawed Stevens and bum plodder Lemieux.

    The anti-Eubank rhetoric on this forum is getting out of hand. So out of hand that I think I will just avoid Eubank threads from now on unless I, or a select few thread starters on here who are actually unbiased posters, create the thread.

    Young Christopher wouldn't have that smug look on his face if he were to eat some of the bombs Stevens and Lemieux are capable of throwing. Papa would never let those fights happen...Too risky and the reward isn't worth it.

    Come on now. Manlet Stevens would get Yildirim'd within three rounds and Lemieux could genuinely get Blackwell'd in there with Euby.

    Could* But Eubank Jr. isn't exactly unhittable and if either of those guys lands flush(especially at MW) it probably would be goodnight.

    Eubank jnr, the only man who gets awarded "walkover" wins for his resume. Never mind that he has never actually beaten a world class fighter. He'd obliterate all these top ten contenders so what's the point asking him to do a silly thing like, you know, actually fighting the fights and proving it.

    I don't dislike the lad by any stretch of the imagination but some of the comments on here seem to be coming from some kind of alternative reality.

    Eubank would get Curtise'd should he meet Lemieux. Way too big, strong and hard punching for him.
