Comments Thread For: Eubank Jr: After I Beat Korobov - Jermall Charlo is On My Radar!
Collapse

This man just came off a solid win over degale and I thought he showed a lot of Heart vs Groves who was a much bigger man.. out of all the fighters from the UK I stand with Eubank Jr. the Most, he he has shown real character and that he has a true American chin. He's been out in Vegas putting in real training and honing his craft.. I think he will put on a spectacular performance against Korobov.

. If jr kos Korobov he should be the favorite now that hes finally listening to his trainer who actually clicks w him for once. And jr has been facing smw's while charlo whos bigger been dragging up 154 lbers
But I'll never forget the parry + uppercut that one-punch KOd Julian Williams (now unified champion) - that was a thing of beauty and would have ko'd any JMW and most MWs. But Charlo is hittable so Eubank in with a chance.
Eubank doesn't have a great body of work. What he has is a tremendous engine, athleticism and a good chin.
He is there to be outboxed by anyone with lateral movement and sound fundamentals - ie. George Groves.
He caught up with BJS due to latter's poor conditioning.
Abraham was on the slide - 6/7 years past his prime.
DeGale was shot - too many unnecessary wars.

Charlo is the most overrated fighter at 160 and smart money would be on Eubank if the fight was in a neutral location. I think Chris Eubank Jr is a better fighter than Charlo and has definitely mixed with better competition by far. Aside from Charlo's work at 154 where the fighters were average at best and just teak tough, he hasn't done squat at 160 but barely beat advanced amateur Korobov. I think Eubank and Charlo at 160 puts the Texan for the first time in his career against somebody who can match him physically and has that dog in them too.

Originally posted by Roberto Vasquez View PostI think he's done great in his career so far. A novice Eubank almost beat BJS by just walking through him.
He got outclassed by Geroge Groves and then everyone said he should retire and he responded by dominating and retiring James Degale..
That's what a great fighter is - they give their all every fight and come back from defeats.
It's worth noting he was fighting above his natural weight all that time
The only issue I have with him - is he isn't always matched well and he has too long inbetween fights.
He always felt under paid by Barry Hearn
Old senior is a tuff negotiator
EUBANK WILL BE A MUCH DESIRED BOXER IN STATES..HE IS ANTI MAYWEATHER IN THE RING
Win lose or draw...he will put butts in the seats

Typical Eubank arrogance - always overlooking his opponent and calling out a bigger name.
Korobov is past prime to be honest, but he can still give Eubank a real test.
Eubanks best win is Degale - he did well, but Degale looked horrible, way, way past his best.
So far Eubank has not really proved anything other than he has fails to deliver against prime fighters.
