Good fight. I have really liked the look of williams lately and at middle he seems a better fighter but I would lean towards Jnr
Yeah Williams definitely an improving fighter and I wouldn't be over shocked if he won. I think Chris is just a bit more nasty and will get the job done if it happens.
I watched Smith v Williams 1 live at MEN, was impressed with Williams for the first half of the fight he dominated Smith completely schooled him. Smith just doing the old Gallagher high guard trying to walk him down unsuccessfully. He came on in the second half but was disappointing how the fight ended with that dubious head clash. And disappointing again to see him lose the rematch. On that basis, when the going gets tough, I’m not sure Williams can deal with the Warriors code!
Williams is another level to him in terms of pure boxing ability. But Eubank is too relentless and Williams doesn't seem to have unshakable belief that he will win. He took the loss in the second Smith fight far too easily. Eubank will stop him mid-rounds I think.
I would have this as a genuine 50-50, I would love to see it I have both around the same level. If I had to pick I would go Williams on the basis under Ingle he is a much improved fighter with good genuine boxing skill something it seems Eubank struggles with but I think Eubanks pressure and the amount off shots he throws from all angles could trouble Williams. This is the type of fight we should be seeing as boxing returns, tick over fights need to be a thing of the past they are pointless and the current climate hopefully will make boxers see this. Like I say genuine 50-50 and would love to see it.
It's weird, Eubank is clearly rated by so many here but I just don't see it. Whilst he's undoubtedly brave and brings the pressure I think he's severely flawed and a good boxer takes him apart. Williams should beat him, if he doesn't then the recent upsurge in his form must be down to level of opposition rather than genuine development.
