CHRIS EUBANK JR has named Terence Crawford in his list of three dream opponents to fight – despite sharing the SAME coach.
Eubank called out Crawford after the American defeated Canelo Alvarez to win the super-middleweight titles in Las Vegas.
That is despite Eubank re-hiring Brian McIntyre – nicknamed BoMac – Crawford’s long-time trainer.
But the British middleweight does not see it standing in the way of the pair fighting in the future.
Eubank told Sky Sports: “I wouldn’t say so. I said after the fight, I’d love to share the ring with Terence.
“He’s seen as one of the pound-for-pound greats in the sport right now.
“I’m here to fight the big names. A fight with him, a fight with Canelo, I would love to share the ring with these guys.”
Crawford, 37, beat Canelo, 35, to become undisputed king at 168lb and cement himself as a world champ in FIVE different weight classes.
Canelo’s future in boxing now remains in doubt after he refused to confirm his next step – but Eubank still has his eyes on a bout.
He said: “He’s still a superstar. He’s still probably the biggest name in the sport even though he lost. So for sure I’d love to fight him.”

A third name in Eubank’s sights is former unified middleweight world champ Gennady Golovkin – who is yet to officially announce his retirement.
The two were in talks to fight in 2016 and 43-year-old Golovkin – who has not boxed since losing to Canelo in their 2022 trilogy – recently teased a comeback.
And Eubank said: “Why not? He’s a legend in the sport. If the fans wanted to see a fight like that, I don’t know if they do, but if they did, absolutely.”
Eubank, 36, rematches Conor Benn, 28, on November 15 off the back of his stunning victory in their April grudge match.
But he wants to finish the fight inside the distance this time around.
Eubank said: “I just have to use the things that I’ve learned in that first fight to improve my performance, to make sure I can get this guy out of there. I don’t want the fight going 12 rounds again. I want to take him out.
“The unfinished business I guess is the fact that he still thinks that he’s on my level. Maybe he thinks that he should have even won the fight.
“All the things I’m hearing him talk about – ‘I wobbled him’, ‘I hurt him’, ‘he was vulnerable’ – all these things, this is the language of somebody who thinks that they’re better. I need to squash that completely.
“I don’t want there being any question marks. I take him out and that’s it.”
