    12 rounds at middle.
    Another 'chin against puncher' match-up.

    Lausse is the kind of methodical seek and destroy fighter that suits Eubank.

    He'll pressure him, allowing Chris to fight and counter off the backfoot; but won't be swarming or throwing tons of awkward punches, allowing Eubank to fight at a comfortable pace.

    It won't be an easy fight by any means, but i expect Eubank would win clearly especially over ten rounds.

    I have to agree with Mantequilla`s assessment here, as much as I admire Lausse this is not a favourable matchup for him stylistically. Besides, even if he does get through with some heavy artillery Eubank`s chin was more than good enough to withstand it, but with that said once Chris feels that left hook bounce off his chin once or twice he will know he has to play it safe and will do just that en route to a close decision win.
