Billy Joe Saunders vs Chris Eubank Jr - November 29th - Who Wins?

It's ON.

For me, this is the best domestic match up of 2014 simply because it pits two young unbeaten British boxers together to find out who is the best. The winner will almost certainly go on to a World title shot so even more riding on the fight then just the European title.

Also, there's some genuine bad blood between them and and they want to do damage to each other.

A far more interesting fight then the Main Event between Chisora and Fury, willl probably overshadow that fight too in terms of the hype.

I like both BJS and Eubank Jr so it's a tough one to pick and a real 50-50 pick them fight, if i had to choose a winner though i'd have to go for Eubank jr by 8th rd KO just due to him being the harder puncher, better hand and footspeed and the all round better athlete.

If they can add another couple of decent fights to the Excel Arena undercard then the November 29th show is the best British one of 2014.

Who have you got winning and why?

 

That's true about Jr's level of opposition but sometimes you can just tell the quality and potential of someone from the start and for me Eubank is the real deal. As for BJS, he's clearly been in against the better guys but it's the way he struggled against domestic level guys like John Ryder or Gary O' Sullivan that tells me he may not be Top 10 World level although having said that he's still only 24 years old and showed some improvement in his last fight to win the European title.

Eubank jr hasn't even got out of 2nd or 3rd gear in winning his fights, i think he's going to win on November 29th and do it in spectacular fashion as well.

Either way, whoever wins will go on to huge things in 2015.

 

Agreed, I think it'll end badly for BJS and by spectacular KO.

Surprised by the Poll so far though, thought people would be picking BJS to win by a big amount but seems like people are liking Eubank in this one.

 

It's been changed to the 29th now either because it was clashing with some event in London or the Manny Pacquiao vs Chris Algieri fight in Macau on the 22nd.

It says 29th on the boxnation schedule and in the Box Scene article too.

I almost feel sorry for BJS if he gets KO'd by Eubank Jr as he's already been on record as saying he'd retire if Jr beats him. Even if he loses he could still have a good career at domestic, European and even a future shot at a World title as he's still 24/25 years old.

I saw Eubank Jr and his crew at the Manchester weigh-in, they turned up late and from the way he was acting you'd think he was already a World champion. He got loads of potential though and could well be a World Champion by the end of 2015 as long as he stays away from GGG.
