Chris has tremendous power and speed. GGG would always try to stand in front of Eubank and not back off, so I could see Eubank Jr. dropping GGG once. It would be some sight to see GGG floored for the first time in his whole career. However I think GGG will get back up to fight on and go on to win the bout. All great fighters have been floored before, like Ali being floored vs. Cooper and still went on to win it.
I'd like you to take just 5 punches to the head from Eubank Jr. and then see if you're still saying the same thing. :good
Seriously, Jr does not have "tremendous power". Where is this coming from? Quite a few people keep saying this. What evidence is there to suggest he has "tremendous power"? He didn't drop BJS, Spike, even in the fight with Blackwell he was landing at will and didn't drop him and Blackwell was stopped on his feet. Chudinov was took flush punch after punch and wasn't sparked. Yes Jr is a solid puncher, very strong and very fit but he does not carry tremendous power.
He could've killed Blackwell in there, if it wasn't for Eubank Sr. that said stop the hits to the head and go for the body because the ref wasn't stopping it. If you didn't know Blackwell was in a coma for days after still.
atschatschatschatsch so punching a regular joe 5 times and doing damage means eubank jr has amazing speed and power in world level boxing. sorry joe youve lost the thread already good night.
So you are basing these claims of tremendous power on Blackwells injury? If I was to hit you in the head that many times clean there is a very good chance you'd be seriously hurt and likewise if you hit me that many times clean. People have gone to prison and still do for manslaughter for punching somebody once and they have died. A single blow to the head can kill somebody. Those injuries can happen a lot easier than people think. What suggests to you Jr has this power? What have you seen?
Did I say because of the Blackwell injury alone? No. I've watched his bouts and seen it. Others agree too on ESB, not just me.
i reckon a pub drunk could land 5 shots on vyacheslav and putting him to kip. As for eubank, you need to look at his other bouts where he needed about 20 unanswered punches to down journeymen. his volume is good and is uppercut is wicked, but he does not have tremendous power and billy joe saunders is faster. :yep
Jr steps into his punches and has enough pop in them to keep guys honest but nowhere near enough to floor a guy who's never been on the canvas before. Also, how hard will Eubank punch when he's forced onto the back foot?
