Anthony was heavy-handed so I don't get the earlier comparison at all.

A fight with a ranked fighter like Sam Solliman shouldnt be too hard to make. Does Saunders sell plenty of tickets ? I dont see him selling out arenas so it might be hard to progress him unless he's willing to go on the road, or Warren's willing to take a hit in the short term to raise his profile.
Is that not exactly what Fwank did when winning the bids for the Ryder fight?

& anyone who think Eubanks jr can test Saunders has no clue! The lad is a novice a good one, him v bj is like kell brook v Matthew hatton

Couldn't you just done a quick search instead of being an ignorant twat?

I merely pointed out a fact. Did you mean Douche bag?

BJS has a great range of punches but I honestly believe his lack of punch power will find him out when he steps up a level. 2014 will see much the same as 2013 - he will be carefully matched to keep the hype going.

Did you think the Ryder fight was careful matching? Everybody wanted it.

Sorry but BJS is leagues above Eubank Jr in terms of opposition faced.

Eubank had a chance to see what he was about by fighting Nick Blackwell in a final eliminator for BJS's British Title (who is one tough ba$tard and should be European Champion now). This was the perfect fight to progress him instead he pulled out and moved backwards with his career obviously someone didn't fancy his chances. Sooner he gets exposed the better.

BJS can take the Euro Champ Bursak which is the next logical fight. Eubank obviously doesn't want the fight so no point in keeping the British Title
