    Agree it would be a great fight. Don’t think Eubank would fancy it unless Ryder establishes himself as more of a name. High risk with low reward. I’d say who wins depends on who owns the judges...

    I'd picked John by KO over Lemieux, and was eagerly anticipating a Eubank match to be announced, to pick Ryder by KO there as well. So yeah,. you know where I stand.:lol:

    I've changed my opinion.

    Eubank and Lemieux via Robbery!

    Beat Lemieux on points, Eubank would be a real 50/50 IMO. Potential classic

    The great Lemieux strikes again against the feather fisted Bursak.

    Eubank Ryder would be an awesome watch.

    Seeing some ridiculous comments on here.

    I'm a fan of Ryder and he deserved the win against Smith the other week, superb performance (albeit I think Smith was under par) …. but he doesn't "walk through" or "stop" Eubank Jr. Not a chance.

    He has improved for sure, but let's not forget that in the last 3 years he has gone 36 rounds with both Arnfield, Etches and Fielding. Eubank would beat all 3 of them.

    Think Ryder @168 but Eubank @160

    He looked ASS in that fight, was entertaining though. Doesn't look like 168 is going to be a good place for him. He loses his equaliser there.

    At this point with the inactivity and the move up in weight Lemieux is becoming a question mark. I'd favor Eubank over Ryder

    I don't think Lemmy's power is over rated , I just think that's all he's got, Be a rougher road at 168 but he could pull a surprise, not the way to bet though.
