Hearing big rumours Tom Doran is next for Eubank with a announcement tomorrow.

A far better opponent than I expected.

HUGE Rumours

better than a Tony Jeter oppoenent Eddie likes to provide but still a huge mismatch as would Ryder be. Eubank is well beyond British level. after this he needs to be looking at some of the fringe contenders like Heiland, Lee, N'Dam, Stevens, Qullin, Soro or Tureano Johnson. I think he's a couple fights a way from Lemieux and Jacobs level yet.

They announced today at 12 that they will announce the opponent tomorrow.
I was just announcing that I'd talk about the announcement tomorrow.

I'll be following that up with a post announcement discussion.

Eubank will KO Doran early.

Bad fight, Eubank jr is a much higher level, can't see it happening, unless he is looking to win the Lonsdale belt outright. Eubank should be fighting at world level now, he is no 1 challenger for a world title.

If it has to be a defence of the British title theres probably no better option.

You could argue that Ryder is more proven but he has that stoppage loss to Blackwell on his record.

Markham is a tough fella but probably quite below Eubanks' level (and has a fight scheduled)

Good shout from whoever said Heiland and N'dam. They'd both be decent tests right now. If he's not gonna try win the Lonsdale outright, why defend it at all? He's got much bigger fish to fry.

Would not go as far as to say that the WBA title is a fake title, Daniel Jacobs won it in great style, even though Golokin is the super champ and I know it is stupid to have more then one world champion with a sanctioning body, like the WBA, but Eubank needs to be fighting at world level, not British level and I don't even know if Doran is British level yet.

Confirmed this morning, after getting through the first couple of rounds CEJ wins as he likes.

Probably be getting paid well but is still a big mismatch what ever way you look at it.

I have a feeling he will try and win it outright and give the belt to Blackwell.

Likewise, it would not mean the same to Nick.

Eubank is not world class or ready for world class opponents yet.

Billie Joe is a world champion and he was lucky to beat Eubank jr, also Eubank jr dominated the British champion, so he is above British level.

Based on what happened last time, is the intention to keep matching Eubank Jr lightly until he kills somebody?

have to disagree with that...he took BJS to the wire for me...and while agree he lost it was certainly close

Unless you are saying BJS is not world class either then fair do's....

Anychance Warren/Hearn can do a deal one gets Flanagan/Crolla other gets BJS/Eubank

World class in the sense of being able to compete with the best, but he's not anything close to the best at MW. I'd like to see how he fares against someone like Lemieux, I'm not convinced he'd win. Nice boxing skills, but don't know if he's tough or determined enough - like to find out.

World class in the sense of being able to compete with the best, maybe, we've yet to see, but as far as I am concerned, right now, he's not anything close to the best at MW. I'd like to see how he fares against someone like Lemieux, I'm not convinced he'd win. Nice boxing skills, but don't know if he's tough or determined enough - like to find out.
