hmm three months looking at it, but clearly the bruising left a lasting impact.
The shots Eubank took off of Thompson would have destroyed most other cruiserweights, let alone a puffed up 168 lb fighter.
I thought Eubank rightly lost fight 1, he lost most of the 2nd half of the fight, and Thompson nicked a couple on the first half too. Judges got it right.

James,
Exactly three months between the fights. I was shocked by how quickly oh worthy one forced the rematch.

Thompson great under rated fighter- but for me that fight will always be remembered for carls dancing as he entered the ring, it was so bad it was good!
