Scared to fight a guy he already fought? Scared to fight Tommy Langford? Lol..No. Frank called up Seniors estranged son and put him on the Langford card out of spite. That and the injury is why that fight was cancelled. Blackwell was a better fighter than Langford. Billy will never fight Eubank again. He was fortunate to edge a split dec from Eubank while he was still a novice. He won't push his luck a second time.
The GGG fiasco revealed a dark reality in the Eubanks franchise. The pair are media whores, rather fighting over the airwaves instead of the ring. Senior's writing checks the son can't cash. No father should back his son into a corner the way Sr did. Should he struggle/lose to Quinlan, everything evaporates into thin air.
This content is protected Are you really suggesting cej was scared to fight langford. You should be kicked out of this forum if you believe that.
through volume though, not through concussive power. and what you said about Doran, Spike and Cleverly just sounds made up. and if you could show me where his fights have improved at all, let alone considerably, that'd help.
Why sign to fight him, and then fight a 11-1 nobody is the question on everyones lips. Can you explain how that makes sense? Langford was the right fight at the right time, but for some reason it never happened and now we have bum boy instead a year later
Eubank Jr will win the IBO "title" and will parade himself as a champion, similar to the way his father did when he won the WBO belt, which was considered an illegitimate title at the time. I really dont care much about Eubank Jr career. He had his chance for glory by fighting the man and he mucked it. Until he fights a real threat, I'll just LOL at seniors insanity. I'd love to see CEJ get in with Ward. CEJ would be absolutely clueless. Against Krusher he doesnt make it 5 rounds.
This content is protected The eubanks said it was to save langford a trip to hospital, which would have happened by the way.
Lets be honest his mental dad messed it up along with hearn giving his star pupil a nice paycheck for a fight he was never going to win. I don't see jnr beating them 175 pounders either though.
The whole idea is to attract bigger names to come fight him on ITV PPV. He's not going to get another fight on that platform fighting a bum. And the reason he chose a SMW is to make in intention clear that he is open to everybody at 160-168. Its more than GGG has done. So far he has only targeted guys from lower weight divisions. Golokvin mucked his legacy fight against Ward. It was right there in front of him and he wanted no part of it. David Lemiux was more important to him.
Too bad GGG and Ward werent in the same division. Whereas Ward's first fight from his long break was at 172
