Who you think would win this time? If eubank fights the 12 rounds hard this time it would be his fight
The thing is that eubank either works a t a mental pace and tires or doesn't work til the end. I think it's a lack of power I think he puts so much in to every assault that he knows he will tire at some point. I think Saunders would win again.
The reason Eubank lost the first fight is that he was rushed from C level to A level. That was poor management. He should have first fought Sullivan, Chudinov and Blackwell before facing BJS, that's what BJS did himself. Eubank lacked the experience in that fight. Right now, Eubank wins. But if BJS is still the champ by the time they rematch, Eubank will need a decisive win to get that belt off him. That will be important.
Saunders can only fight hard for 6-8 rounds then tires. Jr has a proven natural stamina, he throws more punches than anyone in the division. Jr will stop BJS this time, the fight will be great and BJS will be even on the cards but will fade and get stopped in the championship rounds. Jr had never been past 8 when he fought BJS last so paced himself too much. This time he will put it on BJS from the start and wont relent until BJS buckles.
Saunders should win, if he keeps it strictly boxing and doesn't brawl, doesn't get involved in a **** measuring competition, his boxing is a level above Eubank. Problem is Saunders hates Eubank and will abandon a tight game plan and will go to war giving the advantage away. Eubank win.
i think the reason eubank lost is becuase despite his qualities (fast,strong,good stamina) he lacks the technique and skill level that bjs is at. this is why he lost the first half of the fight, bjs was too skillful and that isnt going to change
That was a split decision, you know. Many argue it was a 6-6 fight. Eubank only improved ever since while BJS is the same. I think the favorite would be Eubank in a rematch. We can only see when it happens.
well i dont agree, he didnt look any more skillful against spike or blackwell in fact he got tagged with some big shots by both because he was sloppy still and hasnt improved his technique or skill since that fight bjs has gone to world level and won a world title, eubank has gone back to british level, are you sure this percieved improvement isnt due to lower level in competition and bjs lack of improvement isnt due to the step up in competition
I dont think Saunders will take the rematch with Eubank now, He looked visibily shaking after seeing what he did to Blackwell. Since they have boxed Eubank has destroyed spike o sullivan, chudinov and Blackwell two of which Saunders has boxed before and didnt make a dent in.
Eubank stopped Sullivan and Blackwell, something BJS failed to do. Blackwell was actually competitive with BJS while he almost died vs Eubank. Eubank is clearly better than BJS when you compare their performance vs common opponents.
