    Yea, everyone thinks AA is shot to pieces and wont give Jr no props for winning this. Its sad. Jr is really stepping up here. Didnt see this coming

    AA even though has slowed down a lot has enough tools to put a hell of a beating on Eubank.

    They should put Pricey on the undercard again. That dude is fun to watch, I always have a huge smile, ear to ear, from first bell to the last. He reminds of that show, So You Think You Can Fight, if anyone knows it.

    Interesting, don't you think AA's tendency to sleep for a lot of the round vs Eubank's output will lead to a lot of rounds going to Jr?

    Who mentioned BJS?

    And no the leisure centre where the fight took place does not have a capacity of 10,000, and no the fight did not sell out because you could still get tickets on the day plus you could see empty seats on the live broadcast.

    OLYMPIA NATIONAL
    Area (m2): 8,730
    Maximum Capacity: 5,000
    Capacity (seated): 2,000

    You are mistaken with the Olympia Grand which is next door and has a gigantic swimming pool.

    Sorry, maybe I am wrong I will take your word

    Many fights have empty seats during broadcasts, doesn't mean they didn't sell out and I read that it did

    Well, I will be impressed if Eubank sells this one out. Just have to wait and see.

    I think aside from Saunders... Abraham is the best guy Eubank has been in the ring with and unlike the majority of Chris' recent opponents he won't just stand there and get beaten up, Eubank's pitty pats will have little to no effect on AA, who'll walk right through them, most won't even land clean. AA's jab is still piston like and he will land it on a consistent basis, he'll make Chris pay for everyone of his flurries, probably landing a meaty straight right on him as he lunges in, this isn't ****ing Quinlon we're talking about here, Krasniqi and Murray would brutalize him, so what he caught Geale cold after a year and a half off, Geale is shot to ****, he's Katsidis level ruined. O'Sullivan while a big puncher and okay, he's British level as is Blackwell.

    The last decent guy Eubank fought was Chudinov, and people seem to fail to remember that match as accurately as they should, Eubank held like a mother****er for the first 6 or 7 rounds of that match, it was almost Ward level holding, maybe worst, AA is stronger, hits harder still and has far better fundamentals than Chudinov, who kept it fairly even for the first half. Eubank will be under constant pressure against a real Super Middleweight here, this is a quantum leap from some Aussie level bum. Eubank will get wrecked.

    Talking out of your ass once again James, you clearly have never seen the match have you? Because if you have, you're clearly being a propagandist and a flat out liar with this remark.

    You're basically giving them free money with those last few phrases. Stop it. I dont want those odds to suddenly drop man. They we're saying that Wlad was old and shot to pieces and we all saw how he looked. Sure, AA has been involved in more wars than Wlad, but the Armenian still has that motivation, and I think he'll look much better than he did in recent years. Eubank is the most overrated Brit alongside Flanagan.

    I think Sr was to cocky again when he picked AA.

    Coming from the King of Propaganda I will take that as a compliment.

    Even Murray's mum scored that fight for Abe

    Sad fight, Abraham should retire, he is not a super middleweight, he is too short and is a natural 160 lb. fighter, never has been good at 168. He does not fight, he just follows his opponent around the ring with his gloves in front of his face.................

    I clearly remember IB(esb's most credible poster and rbr guru) scoring it 8-4 for Murray, which was also one of the judges scorecard.
