Son Of Boxing Legend Reacts To Canelo vs Saunders

Son of boxing legend Chris Eubank of the UK, Chris Eubank Jr, has long being a rival of Billy Joe Saunders.

The two have fought in the past with Saunders winning but it would appear Eubank Jr is looking for another fight with Saunders.

Saunders lost to pound for pound number one Canelo Alvarez at the weekend and looks set to face some time on the sidelines through injury.

Following the bout Eubank said:

Saunders’ stock will have grown significantly, even in defeat at the weekend, following such a big fight.

Boxing is finally getting this right now. Perfect. About time.

Undefeated records and protecting the ‘O’ is no longer as important as it was.

Boxing starting to get the balance right now. Bingo. Very good.

Now you see.

No doubt this rematch with Eubank could be on the cards down the line.

Here is what happened the first time:
