I really enjoyed this fight. It got a little crude and frantic towards the end but kept me on the edge of my seat till the final bell.
BJS proved that he has a good chin and no stamina issues whatsoever.
Chris Jr has great potential plus some glaring faults. It's time for Chris Sr to realise that, cut the bull**** about his pride and joy being the best middleweight in the world and help Ronnie Davies and his team build Jr up gradually, which is what needs to happen now. -
That depends. At first he looked good, but we all have to admit that he put way too much pressure on himself leading up to that fight. I don't think he will ever be a world beater, but he might be able to grab a strap unless it is ggg he is facing.
As for Eubank Jr, well he has a lot of work to do, even when it comes to the basics. He is a strong and durable guy, but as of right now that is all I can say that is positive.Comment
