If you have a chin, you have a chance and Eubank Jr has that in spades.
GGG will have to display superior boxing skills to win this and I believe he will.
Fascinating match up.

This will be a good one.
Too early for CE Jr, but interesting nonetheless.

Jr is very durable so i wouldn't worry about him getting hurt but he needs a quick start and not fuck about in the first third of the fight. i think golovkin's style will suit him

Wow, brave choice if it happens.
You never know though - shades of Lloyd Honeygan v Don Curry?

Anything that gets Eubank Snr more on the tv is good with me

That is a hell of a step up. I assume he's getting paid plenty of dough.

This would not make sense to me. Why then is he fighting unknown british boxer Tom Doran in June? A fight he will easily win. Needs more testing fights if he wants to take on arguably one of the best pound for pound boxers in the world right now.
Eubank jr is a great boxer but he needs to get some more testing fights under his belt first. Surprised he is not chasing a rematch against BJS to be honest.

Eubank has a great chin, but unfortunately, and possibly in part due to that fact, he's not great defensively. He will never have been hit as hard and as accurately as GGG will hit him. GGG also has his own iron chin to bring to the fight. Can only see one winner.

I agree. Eubank is a very, very good boxer but he has not been near anyone like GGG. Huge gamble for him. But if he takes it on fair play to him.

I don't see how it's a gamble. it's not like jr's protecting an unbeaten record and if, as I expect, he does well in the fight, it will only raise his profile and open up other big fights

Remember also that if he fights someone more evenly matched and loses, people will start to write him off.
Most people don't expect him to beat GGG, so won't hold it against him if he doesn't.

Would be GGG's toughest fight so far by a long way ....

Quick question - Am I the only person to see this and immediately wonder why he's fighting the German Goo Girls?
If I am then I will admit it's a problem I have to resolve.

I must be the only person out there that doesn't rate Eubank that much. Maybe it's because I never took to his old man, as I preferred Benn?
I can only see a one sided victory for GGG here, if it happens.

GGG would / will park Eubank up.
And I for one will laugh when he does. Arrogant prick.

Mate, getting in the ring with GGG is a gamble. End of. The bloke is a fucking machine and has the potential to destroy anyone who steps in with him.
Don't get me wrong, I think Junior is the bollocks. Potentially a 'great'. Fast, powerful, stamina. He's got the lot. But I going to have to be really honest and say, whilst I think Junior has fought some decent, hard boxers, I question if he has fought anyone really 'world class'.
He's fighting Dorans in June which I think again he is fighting below his level.
GGG is literally 'world class'. As good as Junior is I see a fight with GGG a step too high for him at this time. I would be quite happy to be proved wrong but I can't see him beating GGG. He lost to bloody Billy Joe Saunders, yes, it was two years ago but still.
But whatever whatever......Junior V GGG will get boxing fans frothing at the mouth and will be an absolute clash that 'pay per view' will be earning bundles.

I don't find him arrogant at all. He is massively confident in his own ability but he has every right to be. He's an outstanding boxer.
