Nick Blackwell vs. Chris Eubank jr - March 26th 2016

[Happy Slapper]

I've got a funny feeling the upset is going to happen here. Blackwell is way better than his record suggests and has improved.

Blackwell by KO. Just got a feeling.

Would love Blackwell to ko Eubank but really cannot see it happening, I think it could be an easy night for Eubank unfortunately

I hope so.

Blackwell isn't half as feather-fisted as his KO record suggests either. He managed to stop Ryder and came close to stopping Khomistksy. Not exactly a one punch KO artist but a good accumulative puncher. I wouldn't be too shocked if he managed to stop Eubank late on.

I'm going for Blackwell on points though, it will be close but I reckon Blackwell is going to do just enough to win.

[Counter-puncher]

Where's Adam booth? I hope he is still training Eubank Jnr, as he is a superb trainer and I'd like to see Eubank Jnr maximise his ability.

Looking forward to this fight more than any other at the moment.Ive gone Blackwell decision but I can see this being a very closely scored fight.#warBlackwell

If BJS didn't stop Eubank, Blackwell has no chance.

BJS didn't stop Ryder but Blackwell did

Me too. British title fight in a classic division featuring two worthy opponents. My idea of perfect.

I think Eubank Jr will win though I'll be rooting for Blackwell.

[Crease]

Eubank by decision. H ehas the power to break Blackwell down, but I think that he won't get adventurous and as such, will settle for the points win.

You never know but if Eubank's chin is anything like Daddy's then I really can't see Blackwell being the man to stop him.

Blackwell is tough so I could see him going the distance and winning on work rate though, with Eubank tossing it away again in a repeat of the Saunders fight.

Only thing is Blackwell is a notoriuosly slow starter , so hopefully he'll crack on from the opening bell.

True. This could turn into a bit of a seesaw contest. Eubank got into it with Chudinov when he could've just used his boxing ability. Made for good viewing though. The mix of styles and the fact they are both fit and committed could make for a really good battle.

Seems a bit strange for Eubank Jr to go back to domestic level after winning an "Eliminator" against O'Sullivan last time out but this is still a great fight and evenly matched,both guys have been known to start off slow especially Blackwell who almost always seems to need to come from behind to win,i thought we seen the best and worst of Chris against Spike,he started off well,letting the bombs go straight away,wasnt afraid to get in the trenches,landed more uppercuts on an opponent than i can ever remember but he also got wobbled badly and had to show durability and heart

I think Eubank is the better boxer technically and is quicker than Nick,he could make this easy for himself but im sure he'll want to go all macho and slug it out at some point,giving Blackwell an oppurtunity to close the gap,still i think Jr should have too much and win the decision

Yeah that's how I see it going. Hopefully it's another fight like the Chudinov one. Really enjoyed that. I quite like both guys. Eubank gets a lot of stick but I think on his own he seems a decent guy. His camp and surroundings are a bit of a circus but it works for his commercially I suppose. It's not a popularity contest at the end of the day.

[johnswan1]

Eubank should win this easily. I'm not at all convinced that Blackwell is a step up from O'Sullivan. He'll get bashed up badly and stopped here.

[Bigdogsnose]

I think it'll be a painful beatdown for Blackwell. Just one of them where he's too brave for his own good and Eubank gets to tee off a bit. Hope i'm wrong mind!

[cocobongo]

I like Blackwell a lot , only ever been dominated once and that was by Martin Murray when Nick was 8-0, beaten some good fighters and been on the wrong end of a dodgy decision to Bursack I have heard!

Was happy for him when he beat Ryder, Gun to my head id pick Eubank on points but in a close fight! be some statement if Eubank does a number on him!

[ILikeBeer]

Nick Blackwell. By brutal first round KO.
