One punter seemed so confident that he weighed all his possessions against the middleweight world champion hopeful.
A fan sent an Instagram message directly to Eubank Jr. and wrote: "Chris. I just unloaded all my savings onto you to win at stoppage. Don't let me get down."
The claim was made by the man who revealed it and captioned it as: "Now that's some belief."
An apparent punter was on his way to celebrating Mother of All Gambles Williams, 29. He was floored FOUR more times.
He would have been devastated and gobsmacked if Eubank Jr had not stepped on the gas to showboat his way into a win on scorecards.
Later, the 32-year old claimed that he didn't look for the KO but instead wanted to 'punish his rival' over a prolonged period.
