    Not really, Saunders was actually far more impressive, he comprehensively outboxed them for 12 rounds straight. He has an entirely different style than Eubank, Manny would beat his opponents up, Floyd would school them, both impressive in their own right, but the fact remains, Manny was schooled by Floyd regardless of how much better he performed against common opponents. Same goes with BJS and CEJ, Saunders will always be the superior boxer and if they fought again, he'd beat Eubank even more comprehensively.

    In fact it might be CEJ getting KO'd in a rematch, ask yourself why isn't Eubank Jr. pursuing a rematch with Billy Joe to get his revenge, because he knows he probably won't.:deal

    he is not pursuing a fight with billy that means he is scared yet he wants to fight ggg?

    Eubank Jr. will fall hard. He doesn´t have anything that would bother Golovkin. If Golovkin doesn´t play around, fight will be over after 3 rds.

    CEJ can win this fight and for once GGG will be in with someone who has come to beat him up and take it from him.

    This. Eubank Jnr. is feasting on domestic level competition. In almost two years since he lost to BJS I haven't seen any improvement in Eubank. I'd rather Eubank fight Jacobs, Andy Lee, or even Lemieux before a GGG fight.

    While agree Golovkin is an excellent counter puncher, this is generally as he's coming forward. As we saw with Monroe he has a problem with people who flurry while in close with him. This is what I think Eubank jr will have success with. Golovkin's head is also always in the center which is perfect for Eubank jr's uppercuts. I still predict a late tko like with Murray, but think it will be a tougher fight than some expect.

    I am not so sure this fight is happening. I think Eubanks were bluffing to hard and will get called on it, then pull out.

    How in the fu*k do you fight Tom Doran then call out Golovkin? That is the equivalent of claiming you make a six figure salary and the next day you're seen folding burritos at Chipotle.

    There is merit to what you say but the Eubanks don't think like normal people. Some might call them eccentric or crazy but it's what makes them great. Self belief, grit and determination can take a man a long way but when you add with it some of the best athleticism in the business than GGG has got a real fight on his hands.

    Eubanks Jr isn't good Saunders is better than him and would be a better fight for GGG but then again that isn't saying that much.

    You might want to check your own garbage posts and grammar before you pull up anyone else.

    It's we're not were.

    I disagree, but CEJ is stylistically a lot harder for Golovkn imo.
