Probably the most intriguing of this weekend's all-British bouts is the middleweight contest between Billy Joe Saunders and Chris Eubank Jr.
Both fighters have world class talent and both are unbeaten. Saunders has progressed steadily in his career, winning the British, Commonwealth and European straps along the way. All three straps will be on the line for Eubank, who has been more or less fighting bums as pro.
Although the professional experience favours Saunders I feel that Eubank may have more ability but I expect a close contest and one that will probably be decided by the judges scorecards - as neither man, particularly Saunders, has raw power. The odds on a points win for the man from Brighton are outrageously long at 4/1, so that's what i'm backing.
