That one is probably also because it is the one of the most inactive belts in boxing with about five or six title fights in 8 years

No way Etches would be allowed to take that fight. O Sullivan is surely the right fight. He can sell a fight and using Matty Hall as a rough yardstick, Eubank would be far too good for O Sullivan

Kovalev - the way Jr surged down the stretch, i doubt the Russian could keep up.

I don't think this would go past 3-4 in Jnrs favour

Proska seems a good shout. The guy can bang but is very beatable for a good boxer

Black Sam
How do you reach that conclusion about Etches ?
If the terms are right game on.
Perfect fight for both - and a 50:50 affair.

Proksa would be a potentially hilarious opponent. They'd just be swinging wild corkscrew uppercuts at each other all night.

The conclusion is reached by the fact that he's 17-0 and still hasn't fought anyone in the Boxrec World Top 100. The only fighters he's fought with winning records, had grotesquely padded records themselves. At this rate he'll be 25-0 and nobody outside of Sheffield will be interested. So on that basis I'd say no chance at all his camp would take a fight with Eubank.

Next? A very beatable yet seemingly game opponent. Certainly not a Macklin or a Ryder.

Back in the gym, get a win and a performance, then move along.

Biggest thing Chris jnr could do is leave his current training "reigieme". As it is it will simply never work.

Khomitsky? That'd be a good fight, can't see it happening though.

Black Sam,
What was Eubank's record before he fought Saunders ?
You guessed it 17-0 !
Who exactly with a pulse did Eubank fight before Saunders ?
I think you'll find its been for a while now that Eubank wasn't and still isn't interested in an Etches fight.
Why ?

Sergey Khomitsky is a great opponent at this stage,just depends what level Team Eubank want to be operating at,obviously its sensible to move back down but how far back down depends on Sr

Adam is a dangerman; he is very solid, hits hard and has self belief - he as the advantage of not being an arsehole - he really does seem a decent man. More power to him - after he knocks off a high profile boxer he will be a real fan favourite.

I'd love to see him fight someone like, Nick Blackwell, Eamonn O'Kane or Adam Etches just because then he's fighting British contenders who have held or competed for various titles so far and O'Kane and Etches still hold a lesser variant of the IBF (international) and WBC (international-silver) belts.
