      Great question.... The general feeling in the UK is that this is a step too far. They are very passionate about UK fighters but even they feel this is a money grab.

      Eubank jr is known for talking about how he could beat GGG, Ward and Sauders yet he is fighting Quinlan. Let's not forget that he was in line for the Jacobs fight as he held the interim WBA yet vacated and the whole pen issue with GGG.

        It will answer who the better U.K. Middleweight is that's all it can't answer if they are any good eubank coming of Saunders loss who he himself just looked horrible the only answers you will get is when they fight canella and ggg not mediocre U.K. Stuff

          This fight is on Saturday lol.

          Is it definitely happening then? Has that Aussie lad turned up?

          We'll see what happens. Eubank Jr might end up fighting a member of the audience. A bit like in Thailand where you can get KTFO by a Muay Thai fighter for a bucket of whiskey and red bull.

          It feels soo small time.

          Can't believe they got Lennox on board.

              Yeah, I don't know if I can remember anyone else who turned down three title shots like he did. For all his father's boasts I don't believe Snr really believes in his son. He never wanted him to box and now he doesn't want him to fight anyone he's not levels above. He's never fought a puncher either, people just assume he's got a chin because he's dad did. But it didn't work that way with the Klitschkos. As for ITV, I don't think they have much idea about boxing. They just hear the word Eubank and remember the ratings in the glory days.

                Might be worth a bet then lol. And it's still one of he's toughest tests.

                  Lennox: "Eubank - Quinlan will answer questions on both."

                  There are a few questions my "casual fan" friends and workmates have been asking me about this match ...

                  "Who's this Aussie guy Chris Eubank Jnr is fighting?" Answer: "Never heard of him before"

                  "Do you think he's any good?" Answer: No, he couldn't even win an Australian title.

                  "So why is Eubank fighting him then?" Answer: Because it's an easy fight for him.

                  "Are you going to watch it?" Answer: Yeah, when it gets posted on Youtube

                  "Do you think Eubank is going to fight GGG after this?" Answer: No way!

                    Eubank Snr telling the world that his son beats GGG, Degale and Ward.
