However, Eubank Jr could be in for a tough test as his upcoming opponent Szeremeta is undefeated in his last six encounters.

What has been said?

Four-time world champion Carl Froch had some harsh words to say about Chris Eubank Jr.

Froch said: “It’ll just be another knockover fight, won’t it? It’ll be a glorified sparring session just to get him back in the ring after his year layoff, which is the problem with Chris Eubank Jr, what is he, 34-years-old?

“He’s having a year out of the ring at a time. I don’t think he’s got any ambition to become an actual bonafide world champion.

“I think Chris Eubank Jr just wants to make money and that’s it. If pro boxing is not for you, that’s fine. I get it.

“It’s a tough sport and it’s a lifestyle and you’ve got to be 100 percent committed and dedicated – and Chris Eubank Jr isn’t.”
