    Absolute joke, was actually looking forward to seeing Fury. But at least the UFC is on later, they generally go ahead with their fights.

    Card is an absolute shambles from start to finish I pity anyone who had tickets hotels ect booked to see it.

    Fury wasn't himself in the press conference...Even showed a little respect to his opponent
    (Besides calling him a lug and chump)

    I heard Eubank Jr is a more skillful fighter than Mayweather.

    You been talking to Eubank senior again?

    Did you see it? Would be a good fight between him and Saunders.

    Tough decision for Saunders...I guess he Wants bigger fish than Eubank

    I dont really rate Saunders. He's a skillful boxer but I think he suffers from stamina issues and he's not the biggest puncher despite tonight's KO. Didn't really rate Eubank when he was fighting on channel five. He's another one that I think has stamina problems but since he's boxing on boxnation, there seems to be alot more hype about him. I guess we wont truly know how good he is till he moves up in levels.

    From what I've seen of Eubank so far it's obvious he's fighting below his ability...every fight could have lasted 1 or 2 rounds if he wanted, I'm looking forward to see him at the next level.

    Saunders regardless of ability is aiming high...

    Agree totally on Saunders. Definitely has nice skill, but he's definitely NOT a hard enough puncher for top level and like you I believe he has stamina issues too.

    From the little I've seen of Eubank (Boxnation only, never saw him on C5) he has plenty of ability and seems to play up to the crowd a bit too much. I'd be inclined to think he might take Saunders, without being totally convinced, but it's certainly a fight I'd look forward to seeing.

    Just seen on twitter this is on for Nov 29th


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,711 ✭✭✭Joeseph Balls


    And Warren just announced Eubank JR vs Saunders on the Undercard


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 763 ✭✭✭Lucy and Harry

    Hughie fury controversially beaten tonight apparently!

    Haha, he certainly wasn't :P. Well not unless someone gave him a hiding ringside because he wasn't fighting. 'Young' Fury on the otherhand was, and he lost a points decision. Young Fury is an 18 year old Heavyweight, Tyson's younger brother.

    No, 'Young' is his name, he's a team mate of Hughie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 763 ✭✭✭Lucy and Harry


    Young is not his actual name on the birth cert.Its a traveller thing.Big Michael little Michael fat Michael and Michaels Michael.Young Michael.They use the same name so often and have so many brothers they have to differentiate this way.

    Young Fury is small but Hughie and Tyson are big.

    Fury taped up his mouth and refused to talk at a press conference. What ever else he is. Predictable is not one of them

    Really looking forward to Eubank / Billie Joe.

    Still don't know what to make of Eubank Junior, one minute think he's a class act and going to be the real deal and the next think he's overhyped and has fought nobody.

    Hope Fury does the business here, think he's a great character. The interview were he gave David Price grief, said he's only a plumber from Liverpool etc still makes me laugh.

    Eubank Junior still hasn't signed the contract apparently. He wasn't at the press conference today and Warren said he had until 5pm this evening to sign it or else the fight is off.

    Does this happen often? ie a fight is announced before the contracts are signed. Seems a bit crappy considering many people would have bought tickets for this show on the back of the Eubank Jr V Saunders scrap.

    Just seen that on twitter headpig. BJ is going mad. Disappointed if it didn't go ahead. Or it could be all part of hyping it up.

    I see someone just got promoted :D

    Eubank JR saying Warren trying to force him. He'll sign when he's good and ready.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,487 ✭✭✭megadodge


    Just heard Frank Warren on Boxnation saying the Saunders / Eubank fight IS back on. Hardest negotiations of his career, yadda yadda. However, I'm delighted this fight is on, I'm looking forward to this more than any fight in a loooong time. Plus the rest of the bill really puts the PPV on Sky to shame.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 763 ✭✭✭Lucy and Harry


    I think Fury and his camp have done a deal with Ch 5 again to show his fights and his brothers fights.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 19,321 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Fury really needs to fight, he must be rusty as fcuk.
