I suspected that might be the case looking at his record.PredatorHayds wrote:He looked good. He battered Chudinov from pillar to post for twelve rounds.jamesmcdonnell wrote:Jesus! He's rated 8th in the world by boxrec!!! WTF!
Did anyone see the Chudinov fight, I didn't get to see it, how did he look in that?
Chudinov has a respectable record.
But Chudinov was stood right in front of him.
Might give Chris Eubank Jr a watch this weekend...

Well, according to both Snr and JNr you will be watching the man who would beat GGG right now..... So yes, worth a watch IF you believe those two deluded men.
On the other hand if you're like every other half knowledgable boxing fan, you would know that you would be watching a young prospect who would be turned into human mincemeat should he Step in with GGG.

He'd be really delusional if he thought it wise to get in there any time in the next 2 years if ever.
GGG looks like barring an injury, he could be at the top for 4-5 years still - he wastes so little effort, and is lethal in there.
I suspect Eubank Jr, and definitely Sr, knows that he has no business in that ring with GGG, quite possibly ever. I suppose if they figure Jr isn't that good they might just do it for a payday, but Jr's not a big enough star to get the kind of money to make that worthwhile, at least not yet.

Right. It's probably just a way of Chris Snr keeping himself in the news and relevant. His ego can't deal with being yesterday's news. But these kind of boasts can bounce back and make you look bad at times.jamesmcdonnell wrote:I guess he's just talking it up.reggaereggae wrote:Well, according to both Snr and JNr you will be watching the man who would beat GGG right now.....

I would recommend you youtube the fight, its a fun fight to watch Eubank did what he wanted, put out a very high work rate and gave the type of pasting that could ruin a fighter.jamesmcdonnell wrote:Jesus! He's rated 8th in the world by boxrec!!! WTF!
