Eubank vs Spike Presser?

Post by CMDY »

Does anyone know if the general public can attend this? I believe it's Thursday, presumably in London. Any info would be appreciated. I've a bit of spare time and would be interested in going if possible.

The press conference was funny:

Eubank did a lot of talking and goading. Said he would only refer to Spike as Gary, but then referred to him as Spike a minute later and was called out on it by Spike.

Spike didn't say too much other than that he would knock Eubank out.

Steve Collins must have had the date wrong as he was the only one on the panel still wearing a poppy.

Eubank refused to do the head to head because of how Spike kissed Anthony Fitzgerald at theirs. He said he'll only do it at the weigh in.

Looking forward to this but if Spike can't knock Jnr out I can't seem him being skilled or busy enough to win a points decision.

Still remember the Saunders fight where he barely won a round if memory serves and I also thought the Matthew Hall fight was a lot closer than the cards and Matty was never a true middleweight, (decent light-middle though).

The games will go on right upto the first bell I am guessing, we will probably have, shrinks, name-calling and all sorts but unless Spike's power has really improved (which is not impossible) I only see one winner here.

I'm warming to Eubank. He spoke very well at the presser and took Spike to bits really.

You do wonder if someone else control's Spike's Twitter as he is like a different person in real life.

It was interesting to see Eubank mention how he was booed for his first 18 fights and that did seem to change after BJS. He got great support against Chudinov and I can see him becoming more and more popular.

Yes. Eubank will KO Spike. Different levels.

Eubank Jr isnt a world beater, at least not yet anyway, but he takes out Spike fairly comfortably I think. Mid to late stoppage.

I have a feeling Eubank Jr will really come along under Booth, too many knowledgeable people are saying how good Eubank Jr is for it not to be true.

O'Sullivan came across as quite a dull man. Always suspicious of 'crazy' facial hair and patterns shaved into (admittedly little) hair.

I felt they were pretty honest about what they wanted and what they were doing. He's a father of three kids, aged 31 and chasing a career high pay day, so you can see why he would try to use Twitter to talk himself into a fight. From what others have said he's a humble and sound guy, which was the same impression I got when I spoke to him before the press conference began.

I don't doubt any of that but it was very low key and quite dull. I'm looking forward to the fight though.
