Dont you wish this guy was still about?

Thinking about it Eubanks record numerically is simply about the best ever !

Until you start going back in time.

I think Eubank's natural ability was overlooked by most because he was often so frustrating to watch. He cared more about himself than the fans' entertainment; that's only sensible.

Eubank had some really exciting fights with Thompson, Collins, Benn and Watson but he was also in some absoulote stinkers the 1 that comes to mind for me was against Ron Esset in Portugal he had a great ring entrence he was actually getting cheered and then he puts on a performance like that it was dreadful he won by a wide points margin but was really terrible

[Greg Nicholas]

Yeah Ronnie Essett fight is the worst Eubank ever, Eubank looked horrid.. Dry, stiff, lungy, unbalanced, just crap..! Essett was intimidated tho..

He took a lot of fights on a few days (or less) notice on the way up... Canty, George, Aquilina, Collins (Simon), Moro, Da Silva, Dos Santos.

He fought a guy called Greg George on about 3-4 hours notice (for Mickey Duff) and literally just jumped on the Brighton-London train. The guy George was a sparring partner of Dennis Andries and Keith Bristol among others. And here is it: part 1- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDXPVrvMkYc 2- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgKV8yJpU8Y it includes the first KD of Eubank's career.


Essett was pathetic against Eubank.

Yeah, sounds good, Cophaugen. Randy Smith, sadly, is dead now.

[coghaugen11]

That is sad. Nobody had an easy fight against him, including all the world's best middleweights and all the world's best up-comers. He started out as a good prospect, but then turned gatekeeper... tricky trickster and abit of a defensive wizard. Good.
