    With all the politics and dropouts it’s hard to get excited about any fight until the day of it. As customers we’re expected to pay on the basis that decent boxing might happen at some point in time.

    People saying Eggington would be a good opponent… no. One sided beat down by Jr, not a competitive fight in any way

    Disgusting. Ray Robinson fought his whole career injured probably, for buttons by comparison.

    They should ring Nigel, he would then get a Eubank W on his record!!

    Eubank’s dad has said he fought Watson at Earls Court with a broken sternum (worse than a rib break) and v Calzaghe unable to walk up stairs without holding onto a bannister such the state of his knees.

    Really illuminating to see the responses because I know that if Eubank pulled out people would be laying into him saying he **** himself. For what it’s worth if Williams has pulled out IMO it will be because of inadequate prep.

    Anyway I’m seeing mixed reports about this on Twitter, some people saying it’s not true.

    So we get CEJ vs. somebody else? Meh. I was only moderately excited for this being a Williams fan.

    Solves the issue with clashing with the matchroom show.

    They literally did a presser a couple days ago. Would you be involved in high risk training at this stage of camp? Crazy. I feel for Eubank too, twice he's had opponents pull out. Was looking forward to the fight.

    Seriously??? Egginton would get Seriously hurt, levels and he would get badly damaged if it went ahead

    If this is true no point putting Eubank Jr. in with someone inferior this was a very good fight which he needs, just re-schedule it for next year.

    There is more than enough boxing on between now and end of December, I would not be against this happening in the much more inactive months of Jan or Feb when there is virtually nothing on domestically for weeks.

    I was only watching the presser this afternoon what a sh*t show. I don't think they will get anyone of use to replace Williams. How is BJS doing? Has his skull reformed after being caved in by Ginger?

    I'm sure the whole event gets canceled. No way they're gonna have it in Cardiff if Williams is out.
