Not read or heard anyone saying something else , Chris , could of got old overnight , the weight drain could of finally took its toll , but lets remember chris has made that weight for quite a while now its certainly not his first rodeo is it , 6 months ago he went to war for the full duration at the same weight , does one hard fight take it out of you possible , but not often , tactics Connor got it right everyone is throwing bouquets his way , but he was allowed to , Chris just cpould'nt get his feet right , he was slow and sluggish and really he made Conor look a lot better than he is .
I,m just wondering , with Chris and bomac probably expecting a war , and preparing for one , if Chris just simply over trained and left it in the gym , he would'nt be the first , theres a fine line between over training and under training , symptoms are the same,
Chris hasn't fought with the same intensity since the Groves fight. That was his peak and that was a long time ago.
Since that fight he has been very carefully matched, and when there was a legit challenge in front of him- Liam Smith- he lost. Sure he won the rematch, but against a one legged bloke.

Troy Williamson is getting some stick online as he sparred with Eubank and Benn for this fight and some people suggesting he told the Benn camp what was going on in the Eubank camp. He said he predicted a Benn stoppage so guessing he could see Eubank wasn't right in camp.
I seen that. He’s come out and said he never tells sparring stories.

Who did she spar first? Benn?
No he sparred Eubank first, the fact he thought Benn would flatten Eubank says a lot

Right man won
Why did they boo Turki ?
Or give him a lull reception
That wasn't nice
Look at the fights he's made and what he has done for boxing
Look at who he is, and what he has done to nourish his own ego.

Well I'm guessing 'their' human rights record, maybe?
Human rights record, is he responsible for the laws of the country ?

A few folk said that Benn would win, I though they were trying to sell the fight, perhaps they knew Eubank wasn't right

People go to Saudi Prisons for criticizing Turki...one of many reasons why I never would've even considered going to Saudi Arabia even if you promised a Harem of Beautiful Women when I got there.
Boring ass article. I didn't get too far past that. I really wish you would've simply given the Bullet points like I asked.
“There was a little bit of mixed thoughts on it really. I did have a thought of, obviously, Eubank just purely getting old, fatherhood catching up. I think that he was on the decline now for the last couple of years but I just think that 11 stone 6 has pulled it out of him trying to maintain that weight for so long, your body’s going to naturally grow.
“He always keeps in good shape so it’s not really a case of he’s blown up and trying to get back down to the weight, he’s always been in shape and I think it was one too many last fight and I think the last fight took a lot of mileage off.”

Fair stoppage, tough man the American, his corner told him to take a knee there, he didn’t wanna quit. Azim looks the real deal.
5 live is almost in sync with the DAZN pictures. I’m enjoying the company of big Ron, Steve Bunce and Ritchie tonight.

Benn got better after their first fight and Eubank got worse. Benn was better prepared, and had a better gameplan.
Don't really know why everyone is bending over backwards to make excuses for Eubank.
I don't think people are making excuses for Eubank, it's just obvious he wasn't right for whatever reason from the get go. Not Benn's fault but Eubank was not in the same condition as he was in their first fight.
