he is a good british level boxer, might do something at Euro level but not world class, he seems to be one of these who's career has stalled, not to sure where he stands in getting a shot at the British title.

Did he not have a few years out with a brain scan query? Good British level fighter, not as good as big brother though.

I seem to recall some problems after he was stopped by Jantuah. Cant recall the details exactly.

He does show more fire in his belly then Howard. Ashame he can't give Howard a bit of it.

I actually think the pre Jantuah version of Eastman (I have seen very little of him since) was better than Howard, just in a devision with far more depth both domestically and in European and World terms.

Gilbert Eastman is a decent operator. I'd say definitely British level.

Like his bro tho I reckon he needs a tad more urgency. He has some fairly decent skills and this, coupled with more fire could give him a chance for a shot at the Lonsdale.

I dont think he'll beat the top 3-4 domestically, however.
