British middleweight Chris Eubank Jnr has claimed that opponent Spike O'Sullivan is 'nervous' ahead of their world title eliminator on Saturday night.
Eubank and O'Sullivan are looking to become the mandatory challenger to WBA champion Daniel Jacobs, but ahead of the fight at London's O2 Arena, Eubank has described the Irishman as "one-dimensional".
The 26-year-old told Sky Sports News: "The stuff he has been saying and doing is schoolboy stuff if you ask me and that shows nervousness.
"He has dug himself a very deep hole and he's not going to be able to get out of it. No fight is simple, but he is not the man to beat me. He's one-dimensional and he's not got enough in his armour to beat me."
The only defeats of each fighter's career have come against Billy Joe Saunders, who is scheduled to challenge WBO title holder Andy Lee in Manchester next weekend.
