ShowTime From The United Kingdom: Chris Eubank Jr Fights Saturday

Eubank Jr had his opponent in all sorts of trouble in the first round after Jeter felt his power, but the American was able to climb off the canvas and make it out for the second round.

Eubank barely broke sweat, dropping Jeter in the opening round with two left hooks, and then just seconds into the second period, referee Howard Foster had stepped in between the muscular Eubank who had the 39-year-old trapped on the ropes after a barrage of hooks.

“I’m ready for Spike O’Sullivan”, he told Sky Sports.

Eubank, like his famous father – former middleweight and super middleweight titlist Chris Eubank Sr. – loves the spotlight so being in the main event is right up his alley.

Eubank Jr was matched against Jeter as a showcase for him on the undercard, as he is already booked to fight again in December and is obviously vying to fight for the real WBA belt and erase the “interim” label. I firmly believe that Junior will be crowned a Middleweight World champion, will beat the likes of Gennady Golovkin, and will be recognised as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters on the planet. This was a warm-up fight, I’ve been out for eight months. “It was about getting me ready for a man named Spike O’Sullivan”. He was hurt badly and wasn’t in any position to continue. I’m coming for O’Sullivan now.

‘It’s going to be one hell of a fight, he’s been taking a lot of mess and it’s time for a few punishment.

In the co-feature, Gavin McDonnell kept hold of his European suoer-bantamweight title with a steady performance to see off Jeremy Parodi.

Eubank Jnr is on the rise having partnered up with Matchroom Sport and renowned boxing promoter Eddie Hearn and Eubank Snr, 49, has asked his friends, family and fans to call him “English” to avoid any confusion that may arise with his son.
