    Sure it looked nice but how well did that translate in the ring ?


    I'm shocked as to Chris Eubank Jr looked in the ring against BJS considering he did such great pad work with the legendary trainer Dloyd Mayweather Sr .

    Its not over rated, but did anyone really expect Chris to incorporate this into his style so close to a fight? Not to mention he is not trained by Floyd Sr. So it will take more then couple of session to learn this style and master it.

    True. Telegraphing haymakers and uppercuts without any movement or setup doesn't cut it anywhere above Euro level unless you have huge power.

    He can still make something of himself but he needs to fix up. He's also better off finding a trainer he actually respects. Good luck to him.
