I like Chris Eubank Jr more than Sr, I actually think Jr might be more talented than his old man time will tell put it this way put someone like a Charlo brother in with Jr and you will see what will happen to either of them and it won't be pretty it will be Blackwell all over again, people often under credit Eubank Jr because of his old man legacy but when you look at the hype that average joe fighters like the Charlo bros are getting it makes you shake your head... But I guess that's just boxing forum bias because Eubank Jr is a much bigger name than any current active American fighter right now fans are naturally attracted to the best talents about.

Eubank Jr is going to prove himself as a very, very good fighter. He's made huge strides in the last 2 years.
As for Sr, I love the crazy b@stard.

Based on his snapchat he seems to be training all the time & never really seems to leave the gym for long. I don't think he's anything like Chavez, I don't think Sr would let things get to that point & I think he's involved, arguably too involved, with making sure Jr stays on the straight & narrow. I think regardless of what anyone thinks of Eubank Jr's overall upside he'll be the most successful son of a great boxer surpassing Chavez Jr when its all said & done.

Jr is lacking in the fundamentals and I don't think he's getting it 'living the life'. We'll see, I love his potential, but he should be in a gym grinding against other good fighters and not being catered too like he's already earned it.
And as far as him being catered to (which I don't agree with or disagree with cuz idk enough about that behind the scenes stuff) I think guys with potential who are ranked lower than Jr are often catered to in various ways in various places and can be much ado about nothing or play into a guy becoming entitled or complacent. I think that's more about the guys own personality than the catered to part.
