Saturday Night Boxing - Eubank Jr Vs Blackwell

[StonehamPark]

Looking forward to this one, on CH5 (from 9:40pm).

I think the Eubank's have well and truly shot themselves in the foot here though, moving to Hennessy.
Rumours are that Adam Booth has left the Eubank camp.
Frank Warren won't take Eubank back to Sky unless it's for a Saunders rematch.
Saunders won't offer Jr a rematch.

A bit stuck in the mud is Eubank Jr.

Nick Blackweel seems as nervous as you like.

Jr wins within 8 rounds, easy.
But what next for him?

Undercard including Hughie Fury on Spike TV from 730pm competing with Kell Brook v Some bum on SKY

If he wins on Saturday you still kinda suspect he will get outdone tactically when he steps up. He essentially doesn't have a trainer. Ronnie Davies's advice to him before round 11 of the BJS fight was "you gotta win it".

I don't think not having Booth around for this fight will make much difference.
Blackwell's already shitting himself.

Jr will go in with the same mind-set and strategy that he had for O'Sullivan.

Really can't see it going past 8 rounds. I just can't see where he'll go after this fight.

Jacobs?
BJS - would probably get out-foxed again.
Andy Lee - you'd think Booth's inside knowledge would give Lee the edge.

Jacobs (or Alfonso Blanco for Interim) - Possibly, as Jr might want the Interim belt back. However, that path leads to GGG. Jr won't want to risk another loss until a Saunders rematch.

Saunders - I doubt Billy will give Jr the opportunity to ruin that '0' OR the chance to get back in with Sky. Maybe at the end of this year, if not next.

Andy Lee - I don't think Frank Warren will put up with anymore Eubank nonsense unless there's big money involved (Saunders rematch).

Frank Warren has nothing to do with Sky. Chris Eubank Jr will be back with Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Boxing later this year, on Sky.

My mistake, Boxnation*.

Not sure why I would have mentioned Sky!

 

[Ernest]

Saturday on SKY

Brook v A bum
Campbell v Sykes
Allen v Gavern
Townsend v Poxton

On C5/Spike

Eubank v Blackwell
Fury v Guinn
Buglioni v a bum
McDonagh v a bum
A bum v A bum

Not the best cards ever seen on a Saturday night

You may well be surprised. Nick Blackwell is a machine and for someone who has no experience in the amateurs he may well surprise a few. Open to an uppercut but has power in both hands. Nick Blackwell may well be nervous in the press conference but he is well up for this moment. His only losses were against World class opponents.

 

[The Kid Frankie]

I swear it was only recently Eubank was announced as a Matchroom fighter. So how come he's back on C5?

Something to do with the contract they had with Matchroom with it not being met.

Maybe, and I look forward to it either way.

But I think Blackwell's already s**t himself and lost the mental battle.
You could almost hear his knees clacking together under the table.

I'd obviously love to be proven wrong as I'd prefer a 12 round slug-fest over a one-sided beatdown (Chudinov).

That is his personality, in the ring he is a different beast. Many a sportsperson have suffered from nerves in the build up don't read too much into it, Blackwell destroyed Eubank sparring fact I hope the pundits are proved wrong.

Well I hope you're right, and if so, we should have a great fight.

Are you putting any £££ on? (Blackwell just over 7's on Odds Checker).

I may well Gary Lockett is a class trainer and once a cracking fighter himself.

Face off was good neither backed down both in great shape can't wait.

[StonehamPark]

Blackwell is so skinny compared to Jr.

Really can't see Blackwell doing any damage tomorrow.
A league apart.

So if he trained me would I beat Eubank ?

 

[Mr Banana]

If you were looking for a value bet for this fight, Blackwell is 22/1 to win on points.
