I think Bill beats Jnr 100 times out of 100 simply put
You make bets with your heart not your head. 100 out of 100 is way off. The first fight was really close, it's reasonable to think with adjustments and experience eubank could take the rematch. So being objective about the situation, you're exaggerating for your guy.
Neither have made a big movement in the 160 division since the first fight, Saunders has magaged to capture wbo and eubank not done a lot.
The worry for Saunders is that despite having the better boxing basics than eubank, eubank is more disciplined to improve himself physically. Saunders has stagnated in that regard due to sloppiness between fights, when he does fight.
As for the rematch not being made I blame eubank for that
I dont know dude. You never really know what is actually going on behind the scenes. I cannot see why Eubank Jr would turn down a big offer to fight BJS seeing as he isn't getting any opportunities else where.
Eubank has kind of been snubbed by everyone after choosing to go it alone. I feel this has more to do with him not achieving anything, he has definitely looked a lot more ferocious in fights since the BJS fight so not sure if I agree totally there. BJS has fought three since then whilst Eubank has fought 6 times knocking out every opponent. I thought BJS was poor against Akavov and could have easily lost on a non Fwank promotion.
It was widely reported almost everywhere that they offered a 80-20 split initially.

I mean this is pretty much taking the piss. allegedly then CLAIMS to have offered 7 figure fee later on, but I cannot find any info on that which is correlated by Eubank or any source other then allegedly. If there are neutral and objective evidences that show this then please enlighten me.
Thats just what allegedly is saying, there is no proof of this. He is hardly a paragon of virtue and some of the dodgiest decisions and results I have ever witnessed have been on his promotions, so I don't believe he plays fair as he would have us believe.
Theres a saying that if someone calls you a c unt, then they are the c unt. But if everyone calls you a c unt, then likely you are the c unt.
All I know is BJS has had these problems with fights for the last few years. It is not just one person saying he is messing them around or not wanting to fight. There are many. Rosado, Jacobs, Khurtsidze initially, Akavov initially, Bursak, GGG, Eubank and Canelo. All fights which could have been made but for whatever excuse or reason don't. I am not even saying it is his fault, I am just saying ok once or twice but when it is every fight these issues occur and Fwank comes out with some story or theres an injury or excuse, you have to start to question beyond the party line.
Or at least I think you do.
