Just watched the Louis Theroux doco with Chris Eubank probably old but he mentioned that he was not really well liked in his boxing days. Can someone tell me why.
He looks lije he is doing ok for himself.

What looks like and what is actual fact is 2 different things. While eubank may seem to be loaded I would wager thats not the case. Of course the docu is quite old, so at that time yes he did have lots of wealth. But as time goes by Eubank must have wasted a whole lot of dought on shite.

He proberly makes a few quid again these days living off his son through boxing now.

Hi can you post the link never been able to find the full doc please

Isn't Eubank Jr in that documentary, complaining that Sr wouldn't let him try boxing?

I think its about 18 years old quite a good doc I like the Louis Theroux stuff

Thank you

johnny nelson tells a tale about eubank in his autobiography where he bumps into eubank in a hotels toilets, eubank motioned to nelson to join him in a cubicle and shuts the door behind them, once in this cubicle eubank starts lecturing nelson about his speaking manner or something, telling him to always use long words when talking to the press, then just walks out leaving behind a mystified nelson !

Must have been gutted when he realised Chris wasn't going to chop them out.

Mind you, with Eubank's nostrils I'm not sure you'd want to, one huff too many, and you'd be extracting you shoes from his nose with forceps!

His dad is my favourite author.

Yeah I think so.

Also, I am sure he was quite a well spoken young lad - before he discovered hip-hip and gangsta rap innit.

Louis Theroux is Dan Brown's son?

I think I'd be more mystified by Eubank trying to get me into the toilet, then about his opinion on my vocabulary.

He's a Smart chap is Eubank. He has just written a book about ethics.






It was such a success he's now writing one about Kent.

Yes, thought he comes across as quite thoughtful and articulate in interviews, unlike his old man, he appears to know what most of the words he uses mean also.

A complete wally, he was certainly interesting back in his day, his upper class persona clashing with that of the street yob Benn. I think his over inflated sense of worth nowadays could end up fornicating his sons career up though.

I feel good

Eubank is a bizarre invention.. That's what his persona is, a invention. Totally bonkers to most sane individuals.
