Eubank Sr already thinks Eubank Jr is better than Jones Jr/B-Hop

Chris Eubank Senior talks all things Junior, Modern Era, Mayweather-Pacquaio and his own Greatness On the trainer seen working with Chris Eubank Junior on the pads in open workout session "That was Maximo Pierret, who first taught me how to box correctly in New York. He is correcting little habits that Christopher has picked up in terms of foot placement and technique and you will see a re-polished operator. "He will be on the ball, tight and proper from the first bell through. Everything off the jab, the most important punch of all." On the setback caused from the Billy Joe Saunders defeat and future potential "I say to Junior: Look at Nigel Benn, Gerald McClellan, Marvin Hagler, Bernard Hopkins, Steve Collins, and all the champions that beat Collins; they all lost and drew fights before they ever won the middleweight world championship and beat the middleweight world champions. "You're faster, more talented and even stronger than all of them and have less competition. "You're almost as fast and talented as Roy Jones but with a better jab and chin, and darker nature. You will be the man." On how much better he himself would be in todays age of boxing "It's frightening to think what I could do in this day and age, fighting once or twice a year. Having that time to recharge and freshen up, going away to the little boys room for a freshen up, so to speak. "A lady may take a break to powder her nose. You get where I'm coming from. The term is re-polish. "My career was 100mph, on the road for 16 years straight, training every day for 16 years straight. Coming up, I often fought every two or three weeks, and as champion, I often had two or three fights lined up at once. "There were no breaks. The sparring was flat-out and full-on, 90% of my life was sparring in the 80s and 90s. "Today, you can take your foot off the pedal for six months or a year, give up championships by dodging the legally binding mandate challenges and go right back in for another title of sorts and vast purse. "Back when I was fighting, we had to work and be proper. We had to fight, anyone and everyone. It was a living, a job of work, and the hardest profession on the planet. You had to be great to succeed. "Today, it isn't the same manner of greatness. Sugar Ray Robinson could fight once a month for 15 rounds in his sleep, into his forties. No excuses, no pampering or being spoilt, and no ducking and hiding." On his punching ability "I let go some of the best punches of all-time, such as the Watson right uppercut and John Jarvis counter knockout. But that was a fifth world title fight in 10 months and a seventh world title fight in 17 months, after being battered from pillar to post for 11 rounds and then weeks after a fatal road accident with no training breaks. "To have breaks, mentally and physically - the focal explosion to be caused - those punches would be let go all the time if I was fighting today, if I used my jab. Frightening." On the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquaio superfight and prediction "It's a similar fight to Roy Jones and James Toney or Joe Calzaghe and Bernard Hopkins, if Floyd fights like the way he fought 'Sugar' Shane Mosley. "Manny Pacquaio uses in and out motions and throws twice as many punches as Floyd, and Floyd likes to defend elusively with planted feet. "But if Floyd moves, he wins. Manny is close to unbeatable against a stationary target because his feints freeze you and his feet switch his angle at the last moment. "We know Floyd can still move laterally and cover the ring and this would be Manny's undoing of course. Like Marquez (did to Manny). "So Floyd wins if he moves, or Manny wins if Floyd stands in front of him. I can see it going the full 12 rounds regardless." On his own legendary achievements and sons potential "Subjectively, to beat the world's most dangerous puncher, pound-for-pound, in Nigel Benn, and then beat a fighter who was somehow as fast as a middleweight while as strong as a heavyweight and as busy and fit as a lightweight on the night, in Michael Watson in our second fight; I know that that's pretty much impossible to be rivaled. "Objectively, the world record 19 world title fights in less than 50 months without defeat, beating every man faced, can never be matched in the way boxing has evolved. So the Eubank Senior legacy is most certainly secure, but I would love my son to beat my record and he has the ability to do so. "He can beat Golovkin, he has my DNA and he's faster and stronger than I ever was, darker than I ever was and more naturally talented, with more potential."
