Eubank isn't really a puncher though, he can beat up Latvians all he wants, Carruthers, Pryce, Matthews, they didn't blink at his power and kept coming forward. Saunders hit hard enough to keep Ryder, Blackwell and O'Sullivan off him, Eubank doesn't pressure the way they do, he spends half the time stood there prancing about.
Eubank's power will be improving as he progresses and ages. He's still only young, he's still learning and sparring with the best must be giving him a fair bit more confidence(as if he needed it) in his power/ability. Definitely on the right track though.

Not seen much evidence of progress tbh. I thought he might kick on a a bit after beating Bradley Pryce, which at the time I thought might be a bit tricky for him,but his opposition is not improving much. Unless it does I dont think he can be compared to the likes of Saunders, Ryder etc.

What they gonna do with him now? he has reached a stage where he is running out of cheap imports. They have got to start backing up the talk and the hype. Probably go down the incontinence title route or Commonwealth because the truth is he is nowhere near a British Title level shot yet.

What if it was the incredible hulk. He's still a man, just a very angry one.

He could take 1 tonne slab of concrete anyday.[/quote]

true - in fact I once saw the incredible hulk shake off about 2 tonnes of concrete that had fallen - somehow - on his head

No you could not.

If you dropped a 1 tonne slab of concrete on any man head he would be dead let alone a whole car park.
^ This.

But I'd also like to add, that it is physically impossible for a human being to list a multi-story car park, let alone drop it on another human.

There's certainly a fundamental flaw in this plan to beat Eubank.

rubbish!
I will - before your very eyes list not one, but two multi-story car parks;

1) the one in Ilford
2) the one in Stratford

Preston Bus Station is a multi-storey car park, I think even Eubank would be knocked out by that :OhYes:

Surprised so many people are picking Eubank.... It would be an easy nights work for BJS, Eubank is nowhere near that level right now.

I have never been to Ilford or Stratford, so have no personally witnessed these car parks. Thus your list is meaningless to me. :evil:


Ps. I guess I'm going to be a smart arse, I should at least spell correctly. :lol:

I'd be very surprised if Eubank Jnr was allowed anywhere near BJS.

Although BJS has said in interviews he doesn't rate Eubank Jnr and thinks he will beat him confortably, even if it became a hard fight and Eubak Jnr does have better power than expected, BJS could just adjust tactics and speed around the ring picking him off for a points win. Ryder presented more danger than Eubank Jnr IMO.

Whilst Eubank Jnr has faced reasonable opposition, BJS has faced far better and if they boxed this year BJS would be a heavy favourite IMO.

Bloody hell, that didn't take long. He only signed with Warren a couple of months ago.

yep!

you should try those two car parks I listed, they are quite good - plenty of room! the Ilford one has about 6 floors. whenever you're down this way give them a try, you wont be disappointed :TU:
