So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
I see in one of the dailies today that Jr is having his last amateur fight in Brighton tonight then going pro with Eddie Hearn.
Anyone know what this kid is going to be like. They say middlewieight to start with then move up to super middle.

It's a pro-am event - first pro boxing in Brighton for 10 years, crazy.
Re: So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
Thats' because it's full of hippies and nufters, not the stereotypical boxing crowd. Didn't the Green party get voted in in Brighton?yid14 wrote:It's a pro-am event - first pro boxing in Brighton for 10 years, crazy.

Eddie Hearn claimed on his Twitter page that it's nonsense!
Re: So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
I boxed a fella called Harry Andrews, who was the ticket seller, in Brighton and that was as an intimidating atmosphere as you can get, I didn't see no hippies down there!
I think Frank Maloney was co commentating too

I read this bizarre article 1 year or so ago about how this surrogate mother in Vegas took two Eubank brothers on and they were dreadfully behaved...then there was also that odd filmed car park fight.
Supposedly he's decent; but being decent and being a world champ like his Dad is two different things

Is that the same Harry Andrews who's training Southern Area LWW champ Darren Hamilton?Coco wrote:I boxed a fella called Harry Andrews, who was the ticket seller, in Brighton and that was as an intimidating atmosphere as you can get, I didn't see no hippies down there!

Good luck Chris, let's hope your dad passes down the grit and not the monacle.

Re: So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
I've seen him fight. He's overrated.
Had some training with Floyd Sr, but that means nothing as Floyd Sr is too, overrated.

Do you know the pro results? Have they been in the Brighton Gazette or whatever you have over your way.

Re: So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
cant see him being all that to be honest , i know the lad he boxed , and although ive not seen the fight and all i know is he stopped nathan im pretty sure nathan aint all that in the ams and i think hes lost more than hes won , Nathan pushed him hard first time round while inured too.

Re: So what is Chris Eubank Jr going to be like?
He's got some big shoes to fill. His dad was a helluva a fighter but let's give the lad a chance. He's yet to have a professional fight yet. I think after maybe ten pro fights we'll have a better indication as to how far he will go in the pro ranks.
