What has been said about Harlem Eubank?
Chris Eubank Jr had said of his cousin: “We are very close and he’s a new addition to Team Eubank and I wish him the very best.
He trains hard and I know he will put on a show.
“Harlem is a very slick fighter, good foot movement, good speed, one of those all-round fighters – he’s good at everything.
