Harlem Eubank vs. Timo Schwarzkopf | CH5 - 10 November 2023

[handsofstone]

Harlem won't sell because his style is very boring and he doesn't take risks to KO opponents. Bringing in Eubank Sr. is an attempt to help sales and profile but Harlem himself doesn't come across charismatic or engaging. He needs to spruce up his personality outside the ring.

Yeh it does seem he lacks pop, he's got a couple of highlight reel icings on his slate though

Has the you tube stream cut off?

What happened here?

[Frostieballs]

Pretty packed here to be fair.

Has Tommy Welch been on?

[Frostieballs]

Boxing now.

Put his man down twice, but he’s having a go back now!

[Frostieballs]

Welch comes out strong in 4th.

Puts his man down. Jumps on him after the count, towel comes in.

Looks quite heavy handed at this level.

It’s sold out I believe

It’s about 2k. Maybe just over. Half the Arena is curtained off.

No way to watch this before 10?

They announced it as being on YouTube earlier.

I watched that, but it went off after Zaurbek had finishing playing with that little fella.

[handsofstone]

Wasserman might be the worst matchmakers in the world, a couple solid fights here and there but far too many dud opponents

[Frostieballs]

Organisation here has gone to pot.

Plus they are playing Sweet Caroline.

On the upside, you can buy lager in two pint glasses.

I’m on my fifth.

Eubank to win odds between 1/8 and 1/12 with the bookies. Wasserman pulling Channel 5's pants down.

Great, We've got Bunce

Toughest fight of his career. Timo is rated above him by BoxRec. It'll be a very competitive fight. Those odds don't tell the full story.

I remember an interview with Kalle going back a long way. I think when he first started working with George Groves and he was doing a show over here and going on about how Sauerland (as they were called then) were always about competitive undercards. You only have to go and look at some of the dross chief supports they had over in Germany to see that was bollocks.

As it is I agree with the chap above I don’t think Harlem is a walkover here but maybe a walkover to win a decent UD.

I also think Senior will have been a distraction this week.

Worth a fiver?

He beat Miguel Vázquez in his last fight, who in turn beat Lewis Ritson...

Let's hope so. I do remember seeing Schwarzkopf against Van Heerden. He's no mug but winning is another matter.

[handsofstone]

Did all the Eubanks drop the S in their surname then?

His teeth are distracting me that’s for sure.

[handsofstone]

Eubank probably shades the 1st but Schwarzkopf landed the 2 best shots

[SeanBrennan]

As a Brighton resident I have caved and bought tickets, despite the pricing. We don't get much pro boxing here.

Actually got them a bit cheaper by buying through one of the boxers on the undercard.

A few little local prospects developing. Tommy Welch and Harvey Dykes, who I think won the ABA's at super heavy in 22, both on the bill.

enjoy! there's loads of fights on the bill, hope it's a great show.

Think I’ll enjoy the boxing.

Not sure about the party I have to go to afterwards with my partner’s friends.

She hangs out with a load of Brighton new age hippies. They always get us to do things like burn herbs so we can communicate with our ancestors. Probably be a round of kumbaya as well.

hahahaha sounds like something to endure rather than enjoy. they sound well meaning, I'd just pretend you're in a parody.
