    Brook walking around at 180lbs doesn’t mean anything, he just doesn’t live the life whereas Eubank does.

    Eubank coming up with poor excuses again, let him at the bigger fish instead!

    I really like the Garcia fight for Brook

      He fought Gennady Golovkin at 160
      He jumped two weight classes for 1 fight to test himself. It wasn't a good idea. Meanwhile, Eubank Jr had a 6 fight spell at 168

      When I fight at 160, the maximum I put on is five pounds.
      I don’t have that much weight to take off. He would comfortably make 160. Could I shave off a couple of pounds if I had to? Yes, but one or two maximum
      I'm going to call bull**** on this one. Anybody who knows anything about weight cutting knows this isn't true. Either he could cut more but doesn't which is why he would only go up five pounds. Or, if he is cutting, he can put much more than five pounds back on. Which considering his prior run at 168, I'm more inclined to believe.

      Just go different ways,. a career welter/light-middle shouldn't be fighting a career middle/super-middle anyway. Jr should be looking for a title eliminator at the very least and Brook should stick to 147-154 opponents. A Conor Benn crossroads fight makes way more sense.

        Brook needs to pull an Amir Khan with all the stops. Carchweight, rehydration clause, pillow gloves and all.

          Eubanks would beat brook at 160. Eubanks hasn't looked vulnerable that will be big edge

            Eubanks is a fraud.

            Andrade was right there on dazn desperate for a name fighter and eubanks never once tried to fight him for the middleweight title.


            Thats all i need to know about eubanks

              British boxing fans are the best in the world - much better than Americans who line the first row with rich bimbos who spend the whole fight looking at their phones (Wilder/Fury 3).
              The British fans are all that, but how does that help Eubank? He calls out little Brits and still has fans. They don't expect much.

                I don't think any version of Brook loses to cringeubank jr. Even his shot version.

                  It is, money and a bit of weight bullying. He talks a big game but seems to want to play it safe and that's beating up ppl smaller than him.

                    When we look back at his fathers career, he obviously was in great fights but mainly domestic.

                    he never seemed to want to go America fight the likes of jones etc.
                    I think you are right Conor Benn. Another non Middleweight. It wouldn't even bother me if he went down to the weight ppl like Brook and Benn fight at but he isn't doing that.

                    There is plenty of good fights for him at 160 and fights that lead to title fights. If he doesn't wana do that then that's fine but he talks a big game and then wants fights like those.

                      Dishonest way to look at it and he knows it.

                      Brook blows up between fights and gets fat, so yeah he might technically weigh more than him but Eubank is ripped 24/7 365 so it's irrelevant.

                      It's the equivalent to talking about Ricky Hatton's weight between fights.

                      Obviously Eubank is the far bigger man of the two between himself and Brook.
