'I'm eager to put on a big performance and make a statement in my first fight up at Welterweight. The Eubank name is hot at the moment but I'm ready to put the fire out in style.'
His coach, Jamie Moore, added: "Jack's work ethic and his commitment to the sport is like something I've never seen.
"As you would expect, after you first loss, he had a good rest - he needed a good rest - because that was the most active he'd been for years. Two of those camps were extended, which meant they were longer than you'd want.
"There was a little bit of fatigue there and I feel like the rest has done him the world of good. His attitude has always been bulletproof. He's always been that one track mind type of fighter."

Louis Rees-Zammit announces stunning return to rugby from NFL

Louis Rees-Zammit has announced he will leave the NFL and return to rugby in a stunning announcement. His return to rugby comes just 18 months after the 24-year-old initially quit the game to pursue his dream of playing American football. Rees-Zammit had spells with the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars, but never featured in a regular season game. Sign up to Inside Welsh rugby on Substack to get exclusive news stories and insight from behind the scenes in Welsh rugby. "I've got an exciting announcement to make! I've decided to leave the NFL and return to rugby," said Rees-Zammit in an Instagram post on Thursday night.

I've decided that this is the best time to make this decision to give myself time to get everything in place for next season. "There's only one thing that's on my mind, that's coming back to rugby and doing what I do best. I can't explain how excited I am!! "There'll be more news to come soon but for now, see you soon rugby fans." Rees-Zammit's move to the NFL came in stunning fashion back in 2024 - with the announcement being made on the day Wales were naming their Six Nations squad. After initially going through the NFL's International Player Pathway, he was signed to the Chiefs - but was ultimately cut after struggling to impress in pre-season. He then joined the Jaguars, spending the entire 2024 season on their practice squad. Having not played at all, he temporarily left the Jaguars - but was soon re-signed as part of their expanded off-season roster. This week saw reports that he had missed training with the Jaguars due to a lower back injury, placing his future in doubt. Recently, he had been training with fellow Wales internationals Liam Williams and Gareth Anscombe. Rees-Zammit had previously hinted at a return to rugby while speaking to TalkSport in June. "International players get probably two to three years to make it in the NFL," he said. So I wanted to do it at a time where I maybe could come back to rugby. "I'm 24 now, probably got one to two more years to try and make it depending on how this year goes. "I'll be 25, 26 when I go back to rugby. I like to think I can still play at the highest level." In his first spell in rugby, Rees-Zammit won 32 caps for Wales - touring South Africa with the British and Irish Lions in 2021 and playing at the 2023 World Cup in France. The news will come as a boost to new Wales coach Steve Tandy as he starts the job next month.

Antony U-turn demanded by senior Man United stars

Manchester United are in the process of moving on quite a few big-name players but one of them has received unequivocal backing from his teammates. Marcus Rashford has already departed to join Barcelona on loan, while INEOS are trying to move on Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony. The Brazilian enjoyed a fantastic campaign out on loan with Real Betis, scoring almost as many goals in half-a-season as he has managed in over two campaigns at Old Trafford. His form has attracted plenty of suitors, both in the Premier League and abroad, but the ex-Ajax ace is keen to move back to Betis, where he is guaranteed to be a starter. Antony was on fire last season So far, a deal has not materialised due to United's demands and the Spanish side's financial situation. And as per Ben Jacobs, new signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo along with other senior stars want Ruben Amorim to reintegrate him into the squad. 'There's actually even a feeling from Cunha and Mbeumo, and from other senior United players, that Antony is a good fit in this system, even though the expectation is still that the player wants to drive a move away,' the journalist was quoted as saying by Teamtalk. Cunha will know the left-footed attacker well from his time with the national team. So his comments might make sense. But how much Mbeumo knows is not clear, with the pair never having played together. And since their signings, Antony has not even trained with the first team. Senior players want him to stay It is true that the 25-year-old was on fire last season for Real Betis, but he has struggled massively for United, even under Erik ten Hag. And with Amorim preferring a 3-4-3 formation, there is not much space for the Brazil international. The only option could be to play him as a wingback, something the player might not prefer. And despite this claim, it is likely he will depart this summer. Hopefully, for INEOS' sake, it will be on a permanent basis instead of on loan. Follow us on Bluesky: @
