The Welwyn Hatfield Times have been led to believe Chris Eubank Jnr has failed to sign a contract to fight Billy Joe Saunders.
At a press conference earlier today in London, Hatfield boxer Saunders, along with promoter Frank Warren, issued a 5pm deadline for Eubank and his team to agree to a November match-up at the ExCel.
However, with the clock having ticked well past the deadline, it appears Eubank has failed to seal the deal, and Saunders will be looking for another opponent for the November show.
