    Eubank will win every round, Abraham is washed up and Eubank seems really promising. A late TKO is possible too

    This is looking like a Euro version of Quillin-Winky

    Eubank has a lot of potential. I'm not sure he'll be able to turn it into actual achievement, but it will be fun watching him try.

    I have yet to watch this fight, but beating AA in 2017 doesn't really prove someone is "for real".

    AA has been shot for MANY MANY years.

    How far Eubank Jr goes depends on Eubank Sr

    Eubank does have raw talent, I'll give him that. I never rated Abraham when he was in his prime so beating him now really doesn't mean anything. Hopefully Eubank keeps stepping up the opposition though.

    Abraham seemed to have some sort of mental breakdown against Froch. He was like a more lively Oliver McCall.

    Mental breakdown because of a physical beatdown...

    He just stood there and let himself get beat down. He was never very busy and he handcuffed himself when guys opened up but there seemed to be something up with him in that fight.

    The feeling I got in the audience was that Abraham simply felt the power and snap of Froch's jab and didn't know how the deal with it

    I don't think he has one punch power but he clearly has a bit of a dig on him.

    Eubank isn't a KO artist by any means but his punches are sharp and hurtful. Nobody has scored a legit KD against Abraham and Dirrel has the only official one

    I don't think he carries his power up to 168. better suited to 160. He does have some nice shots in his arsenal though and a good work rate.

    I hope he is and he looks like it but he hasn't proven it yet. Chavez Jr., even though often ridiculed, was a legit top-3 middleweight in his prime

    Yeah Chavez was horrible. If he was top 3 then it says more about the state of the division than his worth as a fighter.
