On the cusp of the biggest fights in boxing, Chris Eubank Jr. has a definite three-man hitlist he hopes to face before too long.
Weeks out from his heated rematch return, Chris Eubank Jr. will look to put a definitive end to his longstanding rivalry with Conor Benn, having defeated the Londoner back in April.
And taking a decision win over Benn as part of their historic familial feud, Eubank Jr. has a slew of fights on his mind after his November comeback, including newly-minted super middleweight star Terence Crawford.
Furthermore, two more clashes are of interest to Eubank Jr. — including a showdown he failed to secure some years ago.
Chris Eubank Jr. reveals plans for Gennady Golovkin grudge match
Expected to find himself in world championship contention with another win over Benn, Hove native Eubank Jr. has made no bones about his interest in a pairing with the above-mentioned Crawford next.
To boot, the veteran British star has weighed up a showdown with Canelo Alvarez following the Mexican’s recent loss to Crawford, paired with links to a massive Wembley spectacle.
On top of that, Eubank Jr. was locked in talks to face Gennady Golovkin back in 2016, ultimately to no avail.
And with the Kazakh star hinting at a sensational boxing comeback, Eubank Jr. wants to finally settle their grudge in an eye-catching showdown.
“I’d love to share the ring with Terence (Crawford),” Eubank Jr. told Sky Sports. “He’s seen as one of the pound-for-pound greats in the sport right now.”
“I’m here to fight the big names. A fight with him, a fight with Canelo (Alvarez), I would love to share the ring with these guys.”
Chris Eubank Jr.’s failed clash with Gennady Golovkin
Initially on a career collision course back in 2016, former middleweight kingpin Golovkin was at loggerheads with Eubank Jr. for a massive showdown in a rare trip to the UK.
And failing to ever share the ring with the former, Golovkin instead took on emerging British talent Kell Brook in the place of Eubank Jr.
Going on to record an emphatic victory, Golovkin battered Brook en route to a brutal finish after inflicting a career-changing injury in the process.
