Has Eubank Jr.............
got a replacement for tomorrow night? I hope not as he may well fight the 28th.
Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
God you have got some Eubank Jr love haven't you Mimmy. I did like him but now I am probably agreeing more with BJS's summary of him on the I film interview.

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
when i first saw Junior fight i thought ohhhh he looks like he has picked up a few fighting genes from his senior .. however they were quickly extinguished by watching his last 2 fights where i thought he struggled quite a bit.... :(

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
Think jnr will be another Matthew hatton type. He will do well to gain the expieriance hatton did.
Fighters like bjs & Ryder have been doing it since they was 8 years old they are much more advanced

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
At only 23 years old and limited amateur experience I think some of the criticism here is a bit harsh. Give him time; he appears to be improving. Decent showing from him tonight though still appears a level below the likes of BJS at the moment. I'd give him another 4-5 fights before going for a shot at the British.

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
since he guy was a late replacement Im not suprised it was over in 3. I would have expected a longer fight if the bulgarian had proberly trained for the fight.
As Eubank did not suffer any injury it looks like the 28th September bill for him, hopefully someone a little tougher, as his father says.

They sounded optimistic they'd be on the undercard of Haye / Fury, didn't they? Hopefully he will be. He's been criminally inactive in 2013.mimmy123 wrote:since he guy was a late replacement Im not suprised it was over in 3.

He should be alright for it. He only took three rounds to knock out that muppet, and in December he had a fight two Saturdays in a row.
Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
IMO he's got to be let off the leash now.
Hennessey's matchmaking was really good in his first year as a pro think he fought 8 times against good opposition for your first few pro fights. Since the Pryce fight his quality of opposition has gone down and he's only fought twice this year.
Shame he won't fight Nick Blackwell anytime soon as he has an EBU Title fight that would have been ideal.
Hopefully the BBBofC put him and Etches to purse bids.

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
They wouldn't take the fight with Etches, his teams pushed for it and they've turned it down.Naandrew wrote:IMO he's got to be let off the leash now.

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
There's talk that he might face Etches' stablemate Liam Cameron next.
Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
No, point taken. He did at least try to throw punches. Some guys, as a late replacement, would take it as an excuse not to do much and pick up a paycheque.mercman wrote:I think muppet is a bit harsh. OK, it was a good finish by Eubank but the Bulgarian lad gave it a go and actually landed a few decent shots early on. He also kept going when he was in trouble and the ref had to pull him out of there when he could have just gone down again. Yes, he looked out of shape but 'muppet' really isn't necessary. At least the lad came to fight.
Though at the same time, I've seen some boxers come in as a late replacement, and make life difficult for the boxer who has been preparing for somebody else.
Though, apparently Eubank stopped a guy who had never been stopped before. So, I'll retract my Muppet statement. I just meant that, Eubank wasn't in too hard a fight, and should be able to box somebody else in two weeks, just as a keeping busy activity.

Re: Has Eubank Jr.............
If I was matching the young Eubank, I'd look to get the tough Farai Musiyiwa for his next fight. He went the full 8 with "The Gorilla" John Ryder in his last bout which is decent form. Following that, a crack at Danny Butler for the English title. I've never seen Etches fight but it's no wonder people are avoiding him; his record suggests he is a real banger.
