Comments Thread For: Saunders Grabs Split Nod, Defeats Chris Eubank Jr.

[dan_cov]

I had it 7-5 BJS & was not impressed by either.

I still do not see this supposed talent in Eubank Jr; His jab is awful, his footwork is an absolute mess, he loads up on everything & tenses up on everything & what was with all the uppercuts? No set up, nothing behind them it was like his entire gameplan was to spam uppercuts.

It was like watching a real novice try and impersonate Carl Froch in a joking manner or something, it was ridiculous. This guy isn't talented and I don't think BJS is either particularly - A bigger version of Frankie Gavin.
I think so little of BJS I am honestly not even confident he would beat the very mediocre Andy Lee at this stage should they fight.

I don't know what all the uppercuts were about either. Everyone will tell you uppercuts pretty much only work on the inside and not when your opponent knows they are coming. So easy to defend against (BJS didn't really do a good job there). Jr was leaping half way across the ring sometimes.

I think it was quite easy to see what Jrs plan was. He wasn't spending much energy in the first 6 and then, being the bigger and stronger guy, took it to Saunders in the second half. to me should have started walking Saunders down from the 3rd or 4th because Saunders was taking a lot of punches off Eubank.

Pretty close fight, I had it a draw but if one was the winner it was Saunders.

Disgusting commentating from Rawlinson btw. He probably has some old ill feeling toward Eubank sr and therefore takes it out on his son.

It made Jim Watt look like a genius.

Also, BoxNation's production is awful. Lightyears behind Matchrooms.

**** off you ****ing gay ass arselicker!

I would care about your opinion if you knew anything about boxing. Which you don't so I don't.

Probably why your 10 other accounts have been banned already.

I'l love to see a rematch in a years time if saunders comes through the winner of the Lee Koborov fight.

Saunders comes through the winner of Lee Korobov fight? Are you serious?

[TudorMiron]

What can I say... a fight of two no hopers. BJS is not even on Andy Lee level.

And that posing joke of a fighter is supposed to beat GGG? Terrible balance, terrible footwork, telegraphs his every shot, no defence. People where saying that he's a power puncher but BJS took his best shots easily.

Two words - no hopers.

Eubank got found out.

He threw and missed with too many shots.

BJS boxed well, had too fight his way to the win.

Thing with Eubank is his ring craft - he has none whatsoever.

BJS thought Eubank was better than he anticipated? Eubank may have thought BJS wasn't as good as he expected, as Eubank privately might have expected BJS to beat him easier.

BJS didn't throw enough body shots to slow Eubanks down which you should do, to a guy who never been 12 rounds
