All Eubanks fans have been saying this since he lost to BJS in 2014.The good news about the Brook fight is that it buys Eubank more time to develop. If Golovkin gets Saunders and Jacobs next like he wants, he'll then have to make a mando vs Dereveyanchenko and possibly someone else like Khurtsidze. Eubank might not get back to Golovkin til this time next year. Plenty of time, with Murray and Langford on the immediate horizon.
How is he going to 'develop' fighting Tom Doran and Tommy Langford?
The truth is Eubanks has been kept away from anyone remotely dangerous in the division by his father.
The reason is simple, he is not that good or special and Eubanks Snr wants a payday first.Comment

Langford's alot better than Doran, he'll force Eubank to shift a few gears where Eubank stayed in 1st for Doran. I'm just saying if Eubank has another year ahead of him before a Golovkin fight, he can wrap up his British title with Murray & Langford, then move on to guys like Korobov and N'Dam.All Eubanks fans have been saying this since he lost to BJS in 2014.

Lewis is one of my favorites, but Eubank Jr would get spanked... I consider Brook a better challenge...Comment

Lennox is a smart guy but, unless Eubanks has improved lots since the Saunders fight, he would have fallen like all the rest to GGG. That said, I don't think Golovkin is furthering his competitive skills much by fighting a significantly smaller guy!Comment

What do you expect?
Lennox always support brit fighters. Backing Jr is also part of the support.
And I guess Lennox doesn't want to have English crying a river because he's telling everybody Golovkin will destroy Jr.Comment
