Collins was a terrific fighter, a really hard man and a genuine world class boxer.

Bloody awful as a pundit though, talks crap by the second and he gives me the impression of not being the nicest of blokes. I don't know him and i may be wrong but it's just the way he comes across.

Calzaghe would've boxed his head off.

Def comes across like that. However, I will counter with the fact that we see him loads on these panel shows, where he is continually talked down to by Eubank, like he is some daft Irish drunken bum. People sit back and listen like Eubank is some old sage, when in fact, he is just a total pudendum. I can understand him getting edgy.

Sometimes I feel Collins should shatter a drinking glass in his head.

I don't know him of course. He may well be a pratt.

Eubank is a berk. That's probably why I like him to be fair he's a character. I wouldn't ever, for a second take him seriously though.

His son "beats Golovkin now" and is better than Sugar Ray Leonard. Lol. How can anyone possibly take him seriously?

If you hold onto your fucking tongue, he'll hold onto his patience, ok sonny. No one in here tonight but card players and he does mean no one.
