Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Both get dissed on here and hated on, I can see over the years and usually for good reasons as well..
If you had to pick one.. Not either or neither, Pick one..
Who do you like or even prefer more than the other?
Chris Eubank Jr. or Billy Joe Saunders?

Like as in go for a pint or mineral water with? BJS for me, I think he‘d be more crack. I find it hard to gauge Eubank’s personality, he seems kind of aloof. I agree that BJS does some tasteless things, but I still don’t get the impression he‘s a bad dude, maybe just lacks judgement sometimes.

Billy Joe is just vile and warped. I could tolerate that brat Jr better, but still not tolerate him.

Eubank Jr seems to be a nicer, more chilled out guy despite his arrogant persona. I’d much rather have him around for a gaming session on the PlayStation.
Definitely rather have a night on the town with BJS though, it’d be hilarious.

BJS for me, Eubank is great but I don’t think he beats Saunders.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑16 Jul 2020, 05:10What if they were to fight again?Noxy wrote: ↑16 Jul 2020, 04:39 Like as in go for a pint or mineral water with?

Chris Jr for me, I think his arrogance is all an act to get attention & seems a decent bloke whilst BJS is an utter prick.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Jr is quite redundant/psychopathic. And material/cosmetic focused - he doesn't seem like a bloke in his 30s.
Fair to say neither are salt of the earth types.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Eubank has always come across as someone with an unnatural personality. With Joshua it's clear he's acting and putting on his persona and also quite childish in a way. Eubank Jr has always come across as the finished article mentally. If you look at his interviews from day 1 to today you'll see little difference. He's been mentally drilled like a soldier in my opinion. He had his boxing hero as his actual father and spent his childhood modelling his mentality. I'm not saying he's a bad person or anything of the sort. So he was mentally drilled by Sr. but I think he spent most of his time mentally drilling himself too. The end result is a warrior of a fighter who will die on his shield of course and who knows boxing in and out and is solid as a rock mentally but in terms of a personality, probably not much else.coghaugen11 wrote: ↑16 Jul 2020, 12:13 Jr is quite redundant/psychopathic.

Pair of mentalists that are/was/were top quality fighters. Wouldn't want either of them around me in all honesty.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Eubank Jr is a top bloke when the camera isn’t on him.
Never turns down photo requests.
Does a lot of work with kids in the Brighton area that he rarely publicises.
He knows how the game works from his father and puts the persona on for marketing purposes.
He’s quite down to earth.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Depends on the context of the relationship. I think despite BJS being a twat, he's prob more entertaining on a night out than Chris (who seems a bit of a dullard), if I was working with them day in day out is prob say Chris (but register with indeed.com immediately)

Jr shows signs of being a high functioning schizoid.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Even the thought of Billy Joe Saunders makes me feel physically sick. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near him.bigjack wrote: ↑17 Jul 2020, 14:03I must be getting old because going anywhere for a drink with Saunders is my worst nightmare.Steveh583 wrote: ↑17 Jul 2020, 11:46 Depends on the context of the relationship.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
I'd rather embrace the chaos with Billy that have Chris show me his selfies all night basically.bigjack wrote: ↑17 Jul 2020, 14:03I must be getting old because going anywhere for a drink with Saunders is my worst nightmare.Steveh583 wrote: ↑17 Jul 2020, 11:46 Depends on the context of the relationship.

I think his antics could amuse me in a drunken meathead kind of way. I can see him being a wind up merchant of the highest caliber. The type of person I'd like in spite of myself. Not a real friend, but a drinking buddy.
I mean neither would be my preferred choice tbh.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
bjs is the type who goes after people just minding their own business, eubank seems like he'd be less of a problem for dudes who dont want any of it , know wut im sayin homeslices? so it's kwisstopher for me, the dudes who gotta f@ck with people minding their own business are always the biggest problem
plus bjs just looks a bit smelly doesnt he, like he washed the one side of his face in dung so much that he cant get it out any more

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
Well it's not going to be Saunders, that's for sure. A one horse race.
Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
I think my 6 year old has more maturity than Saunders . I find his childish behaviour anything but funny .
Shame really cos he's a fantastic boxer .

Eubank Jr by a million miles and I don't even like him.
Saunders is just another loathsome example of this banter culture we have going on at the moment, humiliate somebody but when somebody calls you out on it you try and defend yourself by saying you were just having a laugh and making yourself the victim.

Re: Who do you like better? Eubank Jr. vs. Saunders
He had a very close split points victory against a novice Eubank Jr,after all the cheap talk from Saunders pre fight getting the 'win' isn't the great easy victory he still claims it was.
