Comments Thread For: Chris Eubank Jr. Destroys Avni Yildirim in Three Rounds

[ordinaryus h]

eubank is unbeatable right now. he is incredibly developed in a year. he would smash canelo and little g's ass in the same night for sure.

Eubank is very good but lacks power. Against someone like GGG or Canelo who both have power and iron chins he will struggle.

Very Superman intelligent / dominant performance from Junior.. He looked very fast in there and he came with some power.. I can't wait to watch him and Groves lock horns, there's a lot of people that hate on this kid but there is no denying the Improvement that he has shown.

Nice job from Eubank. He made a statement.
His team did well making the AA fight before the possibility of facing Yildrim.

I thought the ref stopped it too early at first, but on a rewatch Yilidrim was done.

Groves Vs Eubank is a great fight to look forward to.

Going to have to look this fight up on YouTube. Eubank may very well be on his way to becoming a force to reckon with.

Eubank has been a very underrated fighter. And he has improved over time. I see different pieces to his skillset each time he fights.

Has anyone seen that Yank fight?

As he is 400/1 or some shit - is he worth a fiver?

I watched one of his fights on YouTube and wasn't impressed. Not saying he can't win over his elderly opponent in the opening round cuz I think that's winnable for him, but he's 30/70 vs Callum at best I think and if he somehow upsets 2 opponents I can't see him beating Eubank Jr at all.

Why would Groves get injured? I never know why fans project cowardice on fighters. He's never ducked a challenge. Eubank hasn't put a one sided beating on a world level fighter yet, your getting well ahead of yourself.

Lol bro quit taking everything so f#cking serious. I like being serious, but I like joking too sometimes and either it's obvious with anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together or I put a lol after my joke (like in the post you quoted) to make it clear I'm just kidding or playing around.

Respect on the projecting angle doe I think a lot of cats do that too in fairness. I'm not that guy doe. I think Groves would fight whoever at 168.

Eubanks and Saunder are both criminally underrated on here. No shame in Eubanks losing a close, close decision to BJS. BJS is a pretty good fighter, just has crap stamina.

True. No shame in that L, but I feel like a lot of people are defining him on that L and let's not act like BJS stock market value isn't at an all time low since he won that belt so that reflects on Eubank Jr too fairly or unfairly.

I wonder how Eubank Jr would do in a rematch

he has come on, Saunders has not

that does not mean that Saunders does not have a higher ceiling yet, just that we haven't seen the same level of progression from him

I think it would be interesting

Saunders needs to do something, anything really

of the top fighters at 160, he is the least qualified to criticize Golovkin's resume

I agree with the earlier poster who said that Eubank (and Saunders) are horribly under-rated on this site

I have actually noticed that with other UK fighters also

they are both very good fighters

but yea, not what you said

[Kiowhatta]

Almost everyone was on here criticising Eubank for his terrible balance, and it sounds like in this fight he had a guy stand right in front of him, with little head movement, footwork or above-average boxing skills.

Jr is a brawler- he has a vicious streak in him, but BJS showed everyone that he can't deal with angles, lateral movement and superior boxers, as is the case with so-called 'boxer-punchers'.

I believe he could have made more bank at 160, with his name in the MW division, some really exciting match-ups could have been made.

I would like to see him fight Charlo, Canelo or Jacobs, maybe even Lemieux, I think a fight between him and lemmy would be a FOTY candidate, with either man going down via a test of chins.
