Chris Eubank Jnr will win the World Boxing Super Series

Lol at Cox being ranked ninth in an eight man tournament.I think George & Chris Jr (assuming he wins next weekend) are the obvious top 2 seeds & guys most likely to win in this tournament easy without seeing what the brackets look like.
I think Avni & Callum are potential sleepers in this tournament who will get a chance to prove how good they are.
And I think Skoglund, Braehmer, Cox & Brant are more or less dead in the water unless they are fighting each other. I think Skoglund & Brant could have some surprise upset potential, but I think both are more likely to catch a L out of the gate unless they fight one of these other dead in the water guys in their first fight or one of the better guys gets hurt.
So my picks for most likely to win this tournament to least likely would be:
1 - *Eubank Jr, 24-1
2 - Groves, 26-3
3 - Smith, 22-0
4 - *Abraham, 46-5
5 - Yildirim, 16-0
6 - Skoglund, 26-0
7 - Brant, 22-0
8 - Braehmer, 48-3
9 - Cox, 22-0Comment

I honestly think Eubank Jr is a terrible fighter... he got hurt by Spike O'Sullivan at middleweight, has almost no power it seems and (in my mind) can't box either.
Not many other people seem to agree though so maybe it's because I don't like his personality, but I'm not sure he even beats Abraham to get into the tournament (assuming Abraham has anything left in the tank).Comment

Eubank Jr is for sure not terrible, but yea I agree Abraham isn't gonna be a for sure W for him.I honestly think Eubank Jr is a terrible fighter... he got hurt by Spike O'Sullivan at middleweight, has almost no power it seems and (in my mind) can't box either.

That said if he can get by Abraham idk that anyone in this tournament except for Groves is favored to beat him cuz I think Abraham beats most of this field, assuming there isn't a big downturn in his ability from his last couple fights or one of these unproven guys aren't the next Gilberto Ramirez or legit top 5 caliber guy undercover. And personally I think Groves is more overhyped then Eubank Jr.Comment
