Abraham vs Eubank jr. in July

Spike O Sullivan can bang but he was completely outboxed by Eubank before his corner called it quits, that was a one sided beating from Jr and style wise probably the best comparison to Abraham. I haven't seen anything from Jr to suggest he's delicate around the whiskers, the thing that worries me against abraham is Eubanks laziness during rounds and showboating could cost him vs an experienced operator like AA. Spike never landed flush, he said it himself. I can't think of anyone of note Spike knocked out. He's got bad balance and abit of a lack of power. But I think he's durability is being estimated by genetics here. It didn't work that way with Wlad and Vitali. Maybe junior will do it on workrate, because Abraham is very conservative at times, but he's still dangerous.

Its @ 168, Jr won it from the over matched Australian guy Renold Quinlan on his ITV PPV debut ... Right, right! :)... I was used with Eubank Jr. at 160... I forgot about him fighting at 168 -- and, in fact, I didn't know he grabbed that belt...

Abraham has just enough left in the tank to give Eubank a few good rounds of work, but this will likely be more of a sparring session than a compelling fight.

WAR Abraham! Knock out that chump Eubank. This is a big step up from the Dung-beetle Destroyer

Im down with this fight!!! Lets see what Eubanks is all about.

Glass half empty, half full type scenario. There's no questioning his work rate when he sees any signs that his opponent's hurt. This fight should serve as a measuring stick to see where Eubank Jr is skills wise & I agree I think it's going to be close, until the late stages. eubank is a disgrace and so is this fight. he is waiting for GGG to retire

This is a decent fight, but there isn't one puncher on Chris Jnrs record. For those who think he has daddy's chin your about to get your answer.

Should be a good fight this one. Abraham is a tough old pro. Knows just how to steal the round.

Abraham against a high workrate guy? Lol There's a reason Eubank Jnr hasn't ever been matched with a puncher.

Abraham will smash this ponce...then find himself in the WBSS...where he can redeem himself after the dodgy super six where he was robbed vs dirty direll....we might even get abraham vs kessler which would be awesome.

That's a decent fight, Abraham is way past his best, but he can still test Eubank Jr's chin. This is his second best opponent to date.

I wasn't even aware that Abraham lost his WBO belt to Ramirez. That one slipped right by me.

... What IBO "title"?... GGG holds that belt since 2011... :) Its @ 168, Jr won it from the over matched Australian guy Renold Quinlan on his ITV PPV debut

Good test for Eubank

That's what the article says. I suppose it's possible that it's the regular-interim-silver IBO World title..... Golovkin- ibo middleweight Piece of **** Jnr - ibo super middleweight

IBO title hahhahahaaha Eubank Sr has guided Eubank Jr on a successful path.

Glass half empty, half full type scenario. There's no questioning his work rate when he sees any signs that his opponent's hurt. This fight should serve as a measuring stick to see where Eubank Jr is skills wise & I agree I think it's going to be close, until the late stages. Agree, Eubank will most definitely take over in the championship rounds and he's shown a solid chin so far so doubt Abraham will be able to put much of a dent in him early on. Look forward to the fight - hope its not another ITV PPV!

I actually like that fight. A good test for Eubank to see where he's at.
