“I Want Anyone With The Belt” – Chris Eubank Jr
Chris Eubank Jr has a keen eye on the showdown between Jermall Charlo and Sergiy Derevyanchenko. The fight takes place on September 26th, on Showtime Pay-Per-View.
“I’ll be watching that very closely because I’m looking to fight the winner,” Eubank said to PBC. “I want anyone with the belt in the middleweight or super middleweight division. Wherever the opportunity lies. That fight definitely interests me.”
Eubank (29-2, 22 KO’s) is currently training with Roy Jones Jr…
“There have been many improvements since I began working with Roy,” says Eubank. “Footwork, movement, jabbing…there are so many things that at an elite level, you forget to work on, like the fundamentals. It’s the small things that actually count, and that’s something I’ve learned from Roy. That makes you a complete fighter.”
With Jones Jr, all seems to be going very well…
“Listen, [Charlo] has done what he had to do to get that belt, and I respected that—I respect any man that gets in the ring and handles his business,” said Eubank. “Sure, he can scrap. He’s not afraid to go toe-to-toe. He has an energy about him which has helped him get to where he’s at. But as far as what he brings to the table, it doesn’t impress me. I don’t see any danger in what he brings to the ring. Derevyanchenko is not particularly fast or strong but he’s solid. And he’s not afraid,” Eubank added.
