      He’s a domestic level welterweight. Catterall is wasting his time here. Signing with Scam Jones was a bad, bad move for his career.

          seen a couple of his fights but he’s mostly been operating at domestic level and he’s looked okay there but honestly it’s a weird fight for catteral to take apart from maybe getting a decent pay day. Because in many people’s eyes he’s stepping down a couple levels so if he wins then it doesn’t really boost him to much because people expect him to be to good for Harlem but if he loses then it don’t look and pretty much got nowhere to go. Dropping a close decision to Barboza you can still operate at the high level but losing to a guy who’s never even fought at European level really then it’s limbo for his career

            No Jack, you spent too much time sniffing Josh Taylor's arse, then lost at home to a guy Lopez handled with ease. You have no prayer of making a dent at 147. You are basically done.

              Can't believe he recovered from that voice note being leaked of him slagging Catterall. The lad is a complete melt.

                This is a fight Jack Catterall should win easily due to his experience and proven ability at higher levels 'But? The upper limits of Harlem Eubank abilities are unknown, and this is his first real big fight'.

                Note: I think people need to give credit to Chris Eubank Senior 'Who I believe is the manager and is responsible for the chartering of Harlem Eubank's career. Eubank Senior managed and developed Chris Eubank Junior brilliantly during the early part of his career, throughout the domestic and European levels of the game. Right up until Chris Eubank Junior fought and beat James Degale, the 2012 Olympic Champion and former IBF World Super Middle Weight Champion'.

                I am not so sure if Harlem Eubank has the pure innate fighting ability of his cousin Eubank Junior 'But if he is anywhere near as game, or has the tremendous work ethic of Eubank Junior. Then you would have to give him a chance to at least perform better than many people are anticipating against Jack Catterall'.

                To conclude: Jack Catterall skill for skill may have proven himself at by far higher levels than Harlem Eubank 'But I don't think Catterall has a very high level of punching power or brute strength. Neither is Catterall's athleticism and speed attributes super impressive. Catterall just seems to be a extremely solid and refined fighter'.

                I think that combination of attributes and skills make Jack Catterall not the most intimidating fighter for Harlem Eubank Junior to compete against 'Throughout the years I would imagine that he has trained alongside and possibly sparred with Eubank Junior. I think those training sessions will benefit him during this up and coming fight against Jack Catterall'.

                Overall Jack Catterall should really win the fight, but? 'You would have to give Harlem Eubank Junior a chance of potentially out working Catterall, or just execute a better fight at this stage of his career' etc.

                  He’s a glorified double-glazing salesman. He’ll sell his soul to anyone too.

                    It is double Dutch for - this fight will be a stinker.
