    If you look at Kalle’s Twitter he’s liked a Tweet by someone saying both fighters are wank.

    Good luck selling that PPV!

    Agreed.

    The Eubanks have this weird fascination with hiring American/slick legends and trying to turn Junior into that. And it never works. He's not as gifted as them and his love for a tear-up means he's not that guy at heart.

    Booth or Roach would suit him. Heck, can you imagine Atlas screaming at Junior to KO his opponent? Junior would be maiming people.

    Great fight, looking forward to this.

    People are calling Liam Williams limited which I can understand to a degree- but Eubank is every bit as limited, if not more so.

    He's awkward and often looks clumsy, his footwork is poor, at times when he just lunges forwards and throws wildly inaccurate punches he looks like someone who stepped into a boxing ring a few months ago. Technically, he's very poor.

    He also drifts in and out of rounds, fights in short and often not very effective bursts of activity, he seems to switch off in fights and for me goes into cruise control unnecessarily when he should be looking to dominate.

    I thought he didn't look great against a shot to pieces Degale who anyone could have beaten at that stage and he put in a bizarre and unconvincing performance against Marcus Morrison. Better in the fight in Newcastle, but the opponent was there for the taking and Williams would have stopped him with relative ease, probably earlier.

    Neither Liam nor Chris are massive punchers, but both are durable. I think that's the recipe for an absolute war. In that scenario I would very narrowly favor Eubank but it's close to a 50-50 fight for me.

    Eubank was dropped at least three times in the Groves fight and only survived twelve because he was in survival mode from Minute one. He was rocked by a one arm Groves when he finally went for it in the last round. Let’s not forget he went to super middle weight For the money and because he kept having to take his boxies and pathetic gloves off on the scales to make middle.

    Williams was out of his depth against Andrade but there’s no doubt he hurt him at least once. I’d also say Liam Smith is far better than that Degale, Abraham and Yildrim which are his best wins.

    Will be interesting and Eubank will finally have earned some respect if he wins.

    Both limited fighters (but thoroughly enjoyable to watch). Eubank has more experience and has shown more heart than Williams though. I’d fancy Eubank to come out on top.

    Think William gasses late end of this fight and Eubank ends up TKOing him via exhaustion.

    Can see Eubank losing the first half of the fight, then realises he's having more success reverting to type. Williams blows his load too early on, trying to hurt Eubank and Eubank takes over later on.

    Zach Parker just showed Eubank's level and how deluded he is his by talking about guys like Golovkin and Canelo. Both of those men would badly hurt him and Williams still bashes him up.

    Surprised so many people favour Eubank to win this. I think Williams is the far superior boxer and being that this is a boxing match he should win comfortably.

    You've hit the nail on the head. Eubank does have a good chin though, he's just so terrible at defending straight shots. Also he ought to be the bigger man. I'll be backing Williams but fancy Eubank. Assuming Eubank wins it will be his best win though...

    Eubank to win by KO. Sheer volume and power of punches. Rounds 7-9 I think.

    I'd back Williams to win, Jr is bang average and lives off daddy's name.
