CHRIS EUBANK JR says it's his turn to entertain the nation after his famous old man's stint in the jungle.

 

Junior has had to prepare for a fight without his dad by his side for the first time, after the 49-year-old Chris Snr took part in I'm a Celebrity - Get Me Out of Here.

The 26-year-old faces tough Irishman Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan at the 02 Arena tomorrow with a crack at the WBA middleweight title at stake.

And Junior says it will be all eyes on him with his former world middle and supermiddleweight champion father now back on home soil.

Eubank said: "It's great to have him back. He came back on Wednesday after his time in the jungle but he didn't get me a present.

"He did his thing and entertained the British public for a few weeks but now it's my time to shine."

Big-punching O'Sullivan has promised a knock-out victory but Eubank insists his opponent is running scared.

He added: "I've picked up on more fear from Gary. I can smell more fear.

"He was like a schoolboy in the press conference, childish even and that gave me signals that he is nervous.

"He did not keep his cool, he resorted to childish antics and that's a giveaway of how he is really feeling, he is extremely nervous.

 

"O'Sullivan won't hear the final bell. If it goes past eight rounds I will be surprised.

"If he comes in swinging and looking for a war, I will stop him early.

"It's about mathematics. It's about my power, my speed and the amount of punches I will throw if he comes close to me he will be stopped."

But Junior has no intention of following in his dad's footsteps down under any time soon.

He added: "Go in the Jungle? Definitely no, not now, not just yet, maybe in 20 years time but not now."
