You do realise you’ve used a possessive rather than a plural. You meant:

Coopers
Fullmers
Baers
Eubanks
Spinks

Eubank had a fighting brother?
Yeah 2, his brother Peter beat a young undefeated McGuigan, I cant remember the other brothers name
I think it was Simon? But they were called Eubanks, not Eubank oddly.

I'd have no problem with referring to you in the plural, you're a fucken schizo and the whole lot of you are pudenda :TU:

Not that odd

Eubank took the S off the end

He hated his older brother and shoved it in his face that he'd succeeded despite (seemingly) his brother saying he couldn't, one of the first things he said after the first Benn fight

The four Buxton brothers from Watford all boxed on the same bill and all won; Frank and Thomas Tate were world class middleweights; if sisters are allowed a mention, the Klitschkos.

I forgot to mention the Turpins (Dick, Randy and Jackie). Dick was the first black man to win a British title and paved the way for the legendary Randy.
