He won't fight Saunders and if he did he'd get a pasting. They even pulled out of purse bids to fight Danny Butler next week. If his name wasn't Eubank, he'd be stuck away on small hall undercards, I don't even see him winning a British title.

I was one of the very few who thought Groves had the power to hurt Froch if he caught him. Eubank jr is not very good.

I have to go with Mickey on this. Eubank Jr has made much progress over the last 12 months.

I've always felt it's because they are trying to recreate his Dad's career exactly. So the idea was to build him up on terrestrial before moving to Sky or some other subscription channel.Thing is of course being on primetime ITV in the 80s is a whole different kettle of seafood to being on Channel 5 today.

I think they've also been trying to find his Nigel Benn by looking to build a domestic rivalry, first with DeGale and then with BJS.
