WBA interim-middleweight champion Chris Eubank Jr. is very eager to gets his hands on Jermall Charlo, who holds the WBC crown at 160-pounds.

The two boxers crossed paths when they co-headlined a Showtime televised card last December.

Charlo retained his WBC title with a knockout of Dennis Hogan, and Eubank Jr. capture the WBA's interim-belt when he stopped Matt Korobov in two rounds due to injury.

Eubank Jr. is not the most liked individual in boxing - but he believes Charlo is far more despised by the boxing public.

"I've bumped into him a couple of times," Eubank Jr. told Sky Sports. "We had a press conference before both of our fights in New York.

"He is not a likeable guy. Some people say I'm arrogant or cocky but I'm a down to earth, decent guy. This guy's head is in the clouds. He thinks that he's more than he is. I would take great pleasure in taking him down a peg or two."

Eubank Jr. would be willing to face Charlo as soon as possible - once the coronavirus pandemic is resolved.

"Absolutely. I don't like his character. He's got the belt so it will always be an interest. Anyone with a belt in my weight division I want to fight. At this stage of my career, I can't afford to take any steps back so title fights and big names are what I want," Eubank Jr. said.

He is far from impressed with Charlo's level of competition at junior middleweight and middleweight. Charlo held the IBF title at 154-pounds, before vacating and heading to 160.

"He hasn't fought anyone. He hasn't had any big tests. Until he fights someone like me we will never know how good he is. Anyone can look big and strong and fast against weak opponents. That's all he's had in his career. Until he fights someone like me, he will find out that this isn't the game that he thought it was," Eubank Jr. said.
