Chris Eubank Junior's unusual ploy of taking an eight-threes warm-up ahead of his November 29th EBU middleweight title showdown with Billy Joe Saunders was made all the more daring with today's news that Wolverhampton's Jez Wilson will not be in the opposite corner at the Echo Arena on October 25th, leaving the 17-0 (12) contender in search of an opponent for his pre-title fight sharpener.
