Eubank Jr is in the Super-Middle tournament if he beats Abraham.

Eubanks to win this .. he will be a favourite to win the super series..

yeah i think he will win super series too

If he had the balls he talks so much about he'd have told Abraham to do one and entered this WBSS tournament, there he'd be guaranteed millions cos no doubt he'd win (in his own mind)....he could have a few belts as well!

Must've read your post. Even better he has to fight Abraham first to get in :-)

I do worry how the super series promoters will handle the Eubanks and their , well, promotional quirks.

I'm going for the sensible pick in Eubank, but AA could really frustrate Eubank into making mistakes

I hope Abraham starches him, but Eubank Jr should get a UD.

AA past it now

Not the worst fight

But Jnr couldlve put himself in a better one

£16.95 itv pay per view

Winner to fight Avni Yilidrim.

Eubank Sr. said he picked Yilidrim because he likes the way the Turk never takes a backward step. I think Yilidrim probably reminds them of Chudinov and Blackwell...

So Abraham had no say in who the pick was for the Tournament? As if he has no chance of beating Eubank Jr? A bit presumptuous if so.

Yes, but he also suggested that his style is similar to AA, which I think is a bit of a stretch.

They might have discussed the pick behind the scenes, but it was presented as if the decision was up to Eubank Sr.

Ya, it's not similar at all. AA is a spot fighter who explodes in bursts and then takes long breaks. Yilidrim is steady pressure...

It was said because, Jr. holds the IBO title..

Would've been a few permutations for Crazy Chris to remember as others chose before him.

Is it the winner of Groves Cox against the winner of Eubank jnr and Yildarim then?

I think Eubank Jr will win this pretty comfortably and can even get Abraham out of there similar to how Stieglitz did in their rematch, I don't think he can KO Arthur but like most most guys Eubank Jr stops, the ref was step after he overwhelms Abraham with about 30 unanswered punches, he's too young and fresh for Abraham, both guys like to have spells doing nothing but Eubank Jr should pick away before starting to get to work after the midway stage, Abraham is tough and still durable and he's hard to nail clean behind that tight guard, I can see Eubank Jr loading up banging away whilst Abraham stands blocking most shots

I do think Eubank Jr will make a breakthrough though and the ref will step in at some point with Abraham still on his feet

He'll need superior work rate.

Abrahams best days were around 10 years ago, and Barros about 7 years ago...someone said this was 18 quid ? forget it

Fancy Eubank to win by large points shutout.

Just seen the price though - £16.95 - I was thinking £9.99 like previous show.

It's only 5 fights listed this time ? They are not the worst support fights - Galahad's original opppnent was better.

There is a chance of a stoppage due to AA doing nothing and coming for the payday.

AA can still hit though but we've never seen Eubank hurt and he fights like he believes in his chin. If it's anything like his dads then he shouldn't have any problems even if AA was allowed to load up and land several punches to the chin.

Don't think Jnr should have too much worries with AA here at this stage of his career

Fancy Eubank to take this, say 117-112, probably too busy for Abraham

Yeah Abraham is as tough as they come but he was hurt from Murray who's not a big puncher
