I agree...I also think kudos should go to the Lithuanian because he took some mighty shots and didn't wilt like a lot of the Eastern European journeymen do.

Can be viewed online now.

They bang in loads of adverts, mind. Suppose they have to pay for it somehow!

Actually, I don't like seeing one-sided beatdowns like that. Uncomfortable. Eubank Jr did very well though, obviously. Spiteful f***er.

Some may dislike him but I think he's got that swagger that will be pure box office.

Agreed - I like him. He really does seem to want to beat the sh1t out of whoever it is, though.

doesnt do it in the tongue in cheek, pantomime villian way his old man did, much more mean and moody (which is no bad thing).

wish he wouldnt do the whole top rope, tina turner thing tho.

Its that very spite and meanness he has which pleases me in him as a prizefighter.

I identified it in him in those youtube street fights 4 years ago.

I remembered the feeble mouthed school cap wearing preppie boy from dinner with the eubanks. He sure went ghetto in the intervening 4-5 years from that show to the street fights and his father has ensured he had great grooming with Mike Mccallum and others.

Doesn't look like he punches hard enough to me.

A lot of people thought that about Ricky Burns!

There is a youtube clip knocking about of him on the pads with Floyd Mayweather Sr and his hands look really quick there. He's fighting very regularly which is a good thing. In a years time we can take stock of how far we think he can go, by then he should be doing 10+ rounders and be knocking on the door of an English title shot and he could improve a lot in that time.
