For someone of such supposed intelligence he gets his "warrior's code" mixed up an awful lot !

He has that unfortunate infliction of being clearly not too bright - but not intelligent enough to realise. Unquestionably brave man though.

When the bell went Eubank snr was as brave as they come.

It was the strength of his world title opposition that raised criticisms.

That’s because only 1 in 5 were serious threats BUT that was 1 opponent a year because he was that active. It’s not like Calzaghe where only 1 in 10 were any kind of threat and that was 1 opponent every 5 years.

Calzaghe's world title reign comes under pretty severe scrutiny too.

And rightly so. Many of those opponents were a joke. The middleweight divisions had dried up by the late 90s to be fair. But still.
