    I'm torn between British domestic-European level myself. He looked very average and basic against Saunders.

    At the moment british domestic, BJS saunders may off found it harder to keep off a much bigger man, but he still did do it. Eubanks when facing bigger stronger hitting middleweights is going too struggle, unless he sorts out that absymal footwork. Then if he sorts out his glaring flaws, he can become european/fringe world level.

    i think he could be decent and beat some world guys, hell never be the main man at middle though and i doubt he holds a title for a long spell. He's got some qualities which will make him a tough night for most if he gets himself sorted , he hasnt got his style right yet but he pushed saunders whos a good fighter right to the brink . hes a big man and can be fast at times but a lot depends on how he developes from now on if he gets a good trainer and picks well he could compete with certain world world middleweights

    Still has many flaws, but bags of potential.

    Take away the name, and people would be laughing at his posing and posturing.

    Good physique and reasonable pop, but awful boxing skills, and an even worse boxing brain.

    First heavy handed opponent he face's will ruin him.

    Might one day win the British, but no chance he goes further.

    all though he lost to BJS he will have learnt a ton from that experience and the loss could do him more good long term than actually winning that fight .

    i voted "european" but hope he can go further as he could actually be a lot of fun to follow in years to come .

    i think he needs to put a gap of some sort between himself and the old man , i think the family connection is way too tight and senior needs to take a step back .

    European level at the moment but potential world level.

    Still way to early to make that sort of career defining judgement

    He is the best ever.

    He's ability is frightening!

    His biggest asset is that he's massive at 160. Seeing him at 168 against a puncher would be horrible. His father put far too much pressure on him with his ridiculous comparisons to Golovkin and Mayweather and deserves all the derision he's received since the fight, when the comparisons were proven to be fantasy.
