Chris Eubank Jr. A lot of talent.
Based on what? One fight against a journeyman that didn't throw one punch in the handful of rounds it lasted? He could be a very good fighter but he is going to need a lot more testing opponents than tonights to prove he has talent nevermind a lot of talent. Not seen many pro debutants look as good as he did. It looked like he was fighting his tenth pro fight, not his first. Of course his opponent was cherry-picked, that's how it works, but you could still see that the potential's there, no? He's obviously got plenty of talent, and it'll be interesting to see how far he can go. I remember seeing Ricky Hatton's second ever pro fight (undercard to Naz b Kelley) and thinking the same about him. No doubt he looked stylish but a lot of what the game is about is the ability to take a punch and we probably won't even see him tested on that front until his tenth fight or so. he is probably too young to ever face Froch but he has Groves and DeGale in the same division as him and at this stage I would happily lay evens he ever wins a British title. I'll take a bet on him winning a British (or bigger title). What timescale? Shall we say before the end of 2014. In terms of bigger title I would say a European title counts as bigger but a Commonwealth doesn't. What do you think? I'd say the Commonwealth is bigger than the British title, but happy to leave that one out. So, we're saying before the end of 2014 he will/won't have won at least one (in any flavour) of British, European or World title (at any weight)? Sounds like a bet, you offering any odds and how much is the bet for? Do we need Cos and Rob to hold the money in escrow?
