The promoter is aiming high.

Ben Shalom is hopeful that Chris Eubank Jr. can fight for a world title if he’s successful in his next fight.  

Eubank Jr. will be in action on October 12 when he travels to Saudi Arabia to face Poland’s Kamil Szeremeta. 

Eubank Jr. is hoping to build on his last performance when he settled the score with Liam Smith in September 2023.  

The Brighton man will be confident he can land himself bigger fights moving forward, and Shalom has provided an update on the highly ranked middleweight.

"He has to fight for a world title in his next fight,” said Shalom when speaking to talkSPORT

"And we will do absolutely everything to make that happen so unless it is one of the big names where it is ridiculous money, because that is what comes with Chris Eubank Jr., then it has to be a world title."
