CHRIS EUBANK JR has blasted his way to the top of world title contention after dominating Liam Williams.
Welshman Williams, 29 years old, was floored four more times in his Cardiff backyard. He then lost a one-sided point decision.
Chris Eubank Jr. has blasted his way to the world title contention
Eubank Jr is now on the verge of winning the first ever challenge for world middleweight honors.
The son of British boxing legend Chris Sr has many other opportunities for mega-money.
SunSport outlines five possible options for Eubank 32.
Gennady Golovkin
Golovkin, at 160lb, is still the leader.
Eubank made it clear that the Kazakh dangerman is his No1 target after their breakup in talks in 2016.
GGG has been contracted to fight Ryota Mrata of Japan, 36. This fight was postponed due to Covid restrictions.
Eubank may miss his chance to fight in his dream fight, with Golovkin and Canelo also scheduled for later in the year.
Billy Joe Saunders
Eubank could be denied a fight against Golovkin, or his middleweight title. A rematch with bitter rival Saunders would be a good backup plan.
Although he was only marginally defeated in their 2014 domestic match, the split-decision has only exacerbated the feud.
After defeat to Canelo (31), in May, Saunders, 32 considered retiring. He was left with FOUR facial fractures.
The former world champion at two weight admitted that a PS5m win against Eubank would be a great way to get him back in the ring.
Amir Khan or Kellbrook
Khan and Brook, both 35 years old, finally settled their long-running dispute on Saturday. The loser was likely to be forced to hang up the gloves.
If they do well enough, the winner will get at least one more handsome prize.
Brook has been a friend of Eubank's, but Khan has never been a problem.
Despite this, Eubank, along with Sky TV, has opened the doors for Eubank to fight the victor.
Canelo Alvarez
Canelo, although unlikely, is still an option for Eubank. The Mexican fighter wants to fight in the UK.
Eubank, who has beaten seven Brits in the past by Alvarez, is the last one left to face.
Canelo plans to fight at light-heavyweight or even cruiserweight, despite that.
Eubank might be out of the picture if Eubank is not able to fight Golovkin in the trilogy bout.
Shot of vacant world title
Demetrius Andrade (33), and JermallCharlo (31), are both set to gain weight.
This could lead to Andrade's WBO title and Charlo’s WBC title being vacant.
Eubank is ranked at No5 in WBO, but at No3 in WBC. This means that he could be challenging for either title.
If GGG defeats Murata and then fights Canelo, Eubank will be the next in line to win the WBA belt.
