    eubank cant deal with boxers, due to his bad footwork, and non consistent jab, but against come foward guys he relishes.

    Right on, this is most likely why they chose this guy.

    That's debatable, Johnson, Periban and Hyppolyte are all decent scalps, and he beat them convincingly, it won't be easy for Chris regardless.

    Watch the rest of the Periban fight, he was just getting warmed up, he had Periban in full retreat in the last 4 rounds.

    Funnily enough I did last night (before I saw your post). The things that stood out for me were. 1. Yildirim has a great engine on him and he can fight at a good pace from start to finish. He didn't even appear to be noticeably tired at the final bell to me. 2. He's got a good chin, nothing Periban landed could deter him from coming forward. 3. He seemed to need a second to set himself before letting his shots go when Periban stopped moving and he had him backed against the ropes. But he started to flow a bit more smoothly once he got into his groove and he looked more impressive in the later rounds than the earlier ones.

    The punches that led to the KD in round 11 were nice and there was some great action in the 12th when they stood toe to toe with each other.

    Yildirim looks quite basic and slow. I can´t see him hurting jr. I have Eubank jr. winning by wide margin. He is too fast, mobile and his punch volume is just too high.

    He is tought but a C level fighter.

    Incapable of taking any constructive advice and a wannabe tough macho-man.

    I can see Eubank wearing him down and stopping him on his feet around the 10th or 11th round.
