    He can be forgiven for having a straightforward first defence, aslong as his next fight is against a top5 guy

    So either Golovkin, Jacobs, Lemieux, Quillin or a Lee rematch... Fat chance if you ask me.

    weak defence.. not even on a run of wins
     
  4. Can't say I am too surprised. BJS is a decent fighter, but nowhere near the elite and they know it. He will be carefully managed from now on.

    Not a dig at BJS in particular but at what point did a weak first defense become something we're all fine with?

    The plan is BJS - Eubank 2 this summer...FW even said last week that he sent an offer to them via his George who seems like a kid who gets things done. Rubbish fight is Bursak but we knew it was coming
     
  8. That's not a big fight either ffs :lol:

    Eubank Jr had a world title shot offered to him and swerved it.

    It's a big uk fight- not massive but big. The first fight as you know made a lot of noise and sold out that Docklands venue. Second fight at say West Ham will do at least 20k especially as matchroom did a good job on Jnrs profile
    plus he will probably beat Blackwell in style on channel 5
    We will see what happens I guess
     
  10. I'd have a £50 bet with you that there's no chance of it doing 20k as a main event.

    I honestly don't see BllowJob keeping his title long.

    No problem pal - pm me and we can set it up if the fight gets made. The only thing I would ask is that if it does get made then the bet is on the condition that's its booked for a suitable London venue.

    Agreed. They banged on a few times at the press conference that a big fight has been lined up for the summer.

    We knew this first defence was going to be a gimme, but this is so poor I'm going to cancel boxnation. Been on the cards tbh
