Full Chris Eubank Jr. Sparring Session Ahead Of Billy Joe Saunders Fight

Good - Quick clean jab , good left hook , moves his head well.

Bad - Keeps moving to the right (onto the straight left from a southpaw). No straight right hand lead (most effective punch against a southpaw).

In 50 / 50 fights i always go with the better amateur pedigree, BJS by about 4 - 6 rounds or wider UD.

 

Yeah definitely is him and not Sheedy.

 

Dominated the guy.

He got caught a few times with straight punches against the ropes when he got lazy other than that it was a clinic. His fluidity in his techniques and variety of attack is a fresh breath of air compared to the largely mechanical boxers we've seen lately. Triple hooks !!

 

Compare this to the kind of sparring BJS will be getting at MGM. BJS is gonna teach the Eubanks a lesson

 

Know what your saying.. but these MGM fighters haven't been doing so great recently !

 

A few losses, but its still a miles better gym than that rubbish in Brighton, you can tell the vibe of the place. No one challenges Eubank, his son is the greatest boxer that ever lived etc etc. He needs a wake up call and hes gonna get one.

 

Not sure who else exactly they've got down there for sparring in the lead up to this, but to be fair to the Eubanks they don't shy away from top sparring.. Groves, Froch, Degale etc.

 

Zab J, Chad D, Cleverly, Haye, Montell Griffin...

 

eubank can't even tape up his sons gloves properly, and we're supposed to take his word that he's going to better than mayweather?

 

This guy didnt offer much resistance but you don't want to kill your fighter in sparring either. Work on defense, getting your offense off but don't take too much punishment. Like posters have said, this is hardly the biggest challenge he's faced in sparring.

That said, I think Eubank will bully BJS into the corner and ropes in not too a dissimiliar way as we see here. Don't be surprised if Eubank's inside game and stalking pressure causes BJS to completely fall to pieces.

 

I can see so much potential in Eubank jr to win this fight, it would not surprise me if he does. I have gone with BJS since the start though and i am still backing him to win.

 

I like both these kids,so I don't have a favourite.This in many respects is the main event for me.As I have said you may love or hate the Eubanks but they are not stupid,they must be very confident of winning to take this fight at this stage.

 

You think he's gonna go see a hypnotist before the fight?
