To answer the Q, --Henry Wharton fight. Front foot as well as back foot, inside as well as outside, combinations as well as singles/1-2s. Far less posing than usual clearly trying to make a point after the Schommer gift and criticism. Nothing Henry could possibly do to beat him that night it seemed --Eubank found his timing and range in no time and got his punches off quickly and frequently. The jab swelled Henry's eye in about the 2nd round for christ sake.

I was with Chris that night after he beat Benn, as the security team had gone, Barry asked me to look after him, so we went up to Chris's room, I had to help him undress as he was in total agony, I orderd some sandwiches and a few beers, Chris just wanted ginger beer!!, he spoke to Karen for about 20 mins on the phone, it was just him and I in his room, so I know how he felt, his tongue was badly cut, and the lisp was worse, lol, I stayed with him for about an hour, no entourage, just him and I, they were great old days, I rarely talk about..
Also while we are on about that 1st fight, Eubanks ring walk with the tape stopping was true, I was filming in the area where the dj was playing the music, Barry Hearn came rushing in, effing and blinding at the dj, who said the tape broke, I will have to find my video footage to hear exactly what was said,
