    Eubank will be GGG's best opponent by a mile. He's not a great fighter, and has obvious flaws, but he can fight and deep down inside he's a junkyard dog. The man has heart and he, like Golovkin is sadistic.

    If he doesn't get surprised and blitzed out early, and hears the 3rd round bell, Golovkin has hell on his hands, and will have to rely on his boxing ability to wear him down.

    We'll see an aging Golovkin show cracks but eventually overcome his opponent with superior craft and keep the KO streak going:

    Early prediction -- Golovkin TKO-10. FOTY candidate.

    It won't last 2 rounds. Easiest opponent to date.

    lol CST hate for eubank clouds his judgement

    eubank is a solid 160 fighter with insane combo and iron chin

    if the fight happens he might be the one to unsettle Golovkin

    No your love for Eubank Jr. is clouding your judgment, Blackwell, O'Sullivan and Chudinov would be stopped in under 6 by GGG. Doran could die in the ring, and I'm not joking.

    There's levels to this s***.

    I think eubank is sold way too short.
    Two of the roughest in the business i think Eubank Golovkin is a marvelous spectacle.

    cst i liken chris eubank to erol spence

    erol has not fought the best compared to even ortiz but he would murder him in round 1

    everyone in boxing knows eubank is a tough cookie with loads of potencial

    eubank has iron chin and is a insane volume puncher that alone will trouble GGG

    :rofl

    Eubank gets knocked out cold on a savage counter......he ain't getting up Jim.

    "Oh if someone could get on the inside with Kovalev and Golovkin" But they can't, can they?

    Their power inhibits and discombobulates the senses of all who steps in the ring with them, CEJ will be hesitant to throw after the first counter, will go into survival mode and get walked down and dispatched in swift and brutal fashion.

    GGG's jab would prevent CEJ from getting inside.

    Eubank is an inch taller with a longer reach, he doesn't need to get inside.

    Monroe, Murray, Geale, and Macklin had longer reaches. Didn't do them much good.

    GGG has more power, is the smarter boxer, and has better timing.

    But they can't fight, look at what they've done before, and after the fight; has anyone of those guys EVER beaten a really good fighter.

    Eubank reminds me of McClellan. Not as tall, rangy poweful, or good, but same dominant attitude.
