Eubank Vs Jamie Cox

[horndawg80]

Jamie is signing for Fast Eddie then. Great result that is.....
No longer listed as one of Frank's boxers
I think it is common knowledge now that he smashed Degale up in sparring before the Bute fight

Is this confirmed? I know there was an announcement due this week but nothing has come as far as iv seen?

[horndawg80]

In the next couple of weeks apparently. I heard it from a couple of lads on the White Collar scene.

I've heard the Degale story a few times now. Apparently they are mates though

[no1man]

\he said he was announcing some big news this week, but seems to have been delayed, yeah him and degale are mates from the ams, hope if true Eddie can put him in some meaningful fights and we can find out how good he is.

The winner of Fielding-Ryder has been ordered to fight him but would like to see him out before that.

[skanksta]

He's got a punchers chance of catching someone cold in the first two rounds - but that's about it.
Smith, Groves and even Fielding would be very short favourites.

Signing for Eddie after FW brought him back and stuck patiently by him through all his stupidness outside the ring really shows a distinct lack of loyalty. Guess thats boxing!

Seems to struggle to get fights. Maybe Hearn can change that, be interesting to see how they promote him and if they gloss over his personal life issues.

Think he struggles because they seem to want to jump straight to world level when hes not beat anybody of note at smw. Needs a good domestic level win.

Can't blame them seeing some of the fighters who get world title shots nowadays.

Artur Akakov against BJS... wtf

Must be a lot of HWs looking at Hughie Fury

[veriton]

warren seemed to have him fairly busy until he decided to start pummelling pole dancers in his free time.

He might have been fairly busy but he hasn't had a meaningful fight since Sai which was 6 years ago. Some of the inactivity will be self inflicted but even still he should have matched better.

[Andrew]

The guy he last fought was lost to Jimmy Kelly two weight divisions below. Jimmy I would say is at area/English title level.

You would think if Cox was as good as people have said he would blast an opponent of that standard out.

If he fights an opponent of some level I will take notice. But talk of him threatening the likes of Groves, Eubank etc is just daft.

Was going to post again but realised I said this a few weeks ago.

It's staggering how over hyped Cox is on here ,particularly his power, after blasting out a few Eastern European no hopers.

If he does what Callum Smith did to fielding then I will take notice.

Seems like a few on here know him personally....

He hasn't beaten one good opponent as a pro, and is going on 31...

you reckon? he looked absolutely terrible in his last fight and he had been hoovering up WBO brownie points. cox's problems seem to be largely of his own doing.

I'm not saying he is rubbish either. No one has any idea until he fights a legitimate opponent.

Agreed that's all Jamie wants is to fight the best guys out there NOW

Has jamie signed to matchroom.. if not I hope he still fights the winner of fielding ryder

So what's been stopping by him - he has been a pro for 10 years

[Finn]

I have to say I don't recall Jamie Cox.

[SAPFO]

An ex-Brit champ once told me this lad hits very hard. Harder than the record suggests. Hopefully he can get in the mix and show us what he can do.

[horndawg80]

Come on Sapfo, don't be shy... Give us a clue. Which ex British champ? Apparently he was jet lagged as well when he sparred Degale. JDG was only being kept up by the ropes when Jim Mc called it off.

I'm going to get down to Chelmsley Wood and see Cox training...

[Deserter]

Sadly is always going to be a case of 'what could have been...'

You won't be too far away from him if you go down the Wood

[stu 27]

Did he used to work for BT?

[Fitzy901]

Been told from a reliable source he bingoed Degale in sparring. The same guy only George Groves hits harder out of all the 12 stone fighters he has sparred which include Arthur Abraham.

[leejonesjnr]

He's in a difficult position and sometimes does himself no favours too I guess.
His life outside the ring has caused some long delays between contests and whilst he hasn't had any 'big name' opponents, he has dispatched those that he has faced brutally enough to be on the wrong side of the risk reward equation for many to want to face him.
I think I've said it before but when he went up to SM I thought that was a dreadful decision given his former much lighter weight, but he has looked like a killer at 168.
How far is he from a WBO mandatory position?
