Decision wouldn't surprise me, Johnson is in tremendous shape, but I have a feeling Fury stops him with body shots in the later rounds, probably around the 8th. Am going to watch it on wealthtv right now.

Eubank jnr winning both rounds on my card. Doesn't look like he's putting much into his shots but looks like he's hurting Pryce. Maybe his power is improving?

Jnr didn't do that much in the 3rd. Commentators have it for Pryce. Didn't do anything special, just worked harder.

Good fourth round that. Eubanks is not hard to hit is he? Think brad has a punchers chance so long as he's in it.

Sometimes I wonder what fight wood hall watches.

Eubanks didn't miss with his jab that round, snapping brads head back hurting him, then that undercut at the end took the wind out of him.

Got Eubanks 4-1 up. Wood hall has him a point up.

Eubank wins off the jab. He barely threw a right the entire round, and when he does he's waaay off target. Still, he can't miss Pryce with the jab. Good uppercut at the end. "did he do enough to win that round?" asks commentators. Eff yeah! What did Pryce do?

Another round win by Eubanks jab. Brad can't get through, better defence by Eubanks.

Thinking this is like the haye fight where he limited himself to two or three rights per round.

4-1 Eubank. Pryce's face looking pretty reddened. Eubank doesn't seem to have gotten out of 2nd gear.

Another round for Eubanks. Got to be careful as brad has nothing to loose now.

Eubank starting to fight like his dad by just doing enough each round. He'll fight down to his opponets level.

I happen to disagree, I see a closer fight, into the 5th I thought it was practically even, if not giving Eubanks a round ahead. Will say for 7-0-0, he's a good talent. Only drawback to Eubank is he will be hot, and then he will throw nothing and just look cute in the ring with fancy foot work and show boating. May not work well for him when he faces someone better than this man Pryce, but that remains to be seen, it is nice to see the young man step up in ranks rather than collect garbage wins.

7-1 easy nights work for Eubanks. Fighting next week in hull.

Brad posts on here so be interested to see how Eubanks compares against Saunders et al.

Eubanks takes it 80-73, Woodall is outraged as he said it wasn't that wide. Bar round 3 it was all Eubanks and that was because in round 3 Eubanks took a holiday.

Really? Eubanks hardly missed a jab all night, his punches thrown to landed must be high surely? Far superiors to brads??

I don't know about Eubank having no power. His jab wins him the fight, but whenever he loads up he can't land. If he works on it and starts landing those shots, maybe he will show power. I give Pryce maybe 2 rounds tops. Possibly won the last.

Shot of Fury warming up before the break. Yeah, he looks in good nick. In comparison. I still have a better physique than Fury and I'm no professional athlete. He's a foot taller than me though.

I got Fury in this one. Johnson is awful.

Johnson isn't awful, he's just unfashionable. And he takes this by mid-late round stoppage no problem. Hype train ends for Fury tonight, and he gets to balloon up again and inherit Kevin McBride's career.
