Is Chris Eubank Jr. any good?

"He's got ability, young Eubank. It takes a good man to get in there, you've got no gameplan, you're in with phenomenal fighters at world level, you're taking punches after punches, and you keep coming in. Y'know, you've got something."

Fair assessment from Peter Fury, I thought. Having something doesn't necessarily mean you're going to make something of it, though.

 

Fury used the wrong word at the start...I think he didn't mean "ability".... He prob meant gumption, courage etc...but certainly cej showed little "ability" agsinst groves...very little.

 

Not refined ability, but ability in the raw. While he'll never be a maestro, he could be harnessing it to better effect with some strategic nous and organization.

 

Very raw indeed! At 28 and with a world champion boxer for a father, you have to wonder how come he is soooo lacking in the fundamentals of the sport.....and if this is it for him...has he plateaued?
