Re: Eubank Talksport interview
I heard it on the way to work this morning - all this shite about the referees need to protect his opponents etc.
What is day to day life like for these 2? - I get the impression that Snr doesn't let Jnr out of his sight and spends all day brainwashing him with his own psycho-babble.
What about the other kids?
The story is just strange - Snr met a woman at an airport and the next thing he packs off Jnr and another child to live with her in the US for a couple of years ? - what did their mum think?
I just don't get the whole set up.

Jr actally comes across as pretty smart in interviews but if he keeps carrying on acting like his dad and constantly hanging around him he's in danger of becoming as deluded as Sr
Re: Eubank Talksport interview
This ^^ Couple of my mates who follow boxing can't stand him. I don't mind him tbh. He's a a lot of flaws but is exciting to watch. As you say mate, if he managed to escape his dad's shadow and stop the imitation pish he'd probably go further.handsofstone wrote:Jr actally comes across as pretty smart in interviews but if he keeps carrying on acting like his dad and constantly hanging around him he's in danger of becoming as deluded as Sr
James made a good point the other day about his fundamental flaws and lack of amateur experience. He might not be able to improve too much technically but there's a good fighter there and there's improvements I'm sure can be made somewhere with the right person.
Edit: That's not me saying he won't have success as he is, because he has and will probably have more. I just think he could be better than he is given the right advice and training.

Basically a scam to get them into the USA for better schooling. Mom agreed as she felt it was best for them. Was never forever. Just think boarding school USA style.
And on that, actually how educated are Eubanks kids?
