Future WBA Featherweight Champion Berry McGuigan lost his third professional fight against Featherweight journeyman Peter Eubank (older brother of Chris).

Did anyone here see the fight? Was it a fair victory for Eubank?

Any information fight fans?

I haven't seen the fight but from what I've read about it it was a fair decision.... seems Barry was just outhustled a bit by the more experienced Eubank. Eubank wasn't a bad boxer at all, I saw him beat Joe Frazier jr in a little classic and he had another good bout with Terry Marsh I belive... I have the Eubank vs Frazier fight somewhere... Frazier was little son of Joe and was the favourite to win against Peter but again Eubank sprung an upset....

I am of the understanding that in the first McGuigan vs Eubanks fight McGuigan dropped Eubanks in the second round.

I also heard that this fight unlike the rematch was over 2 minute rounds. After this fight 'Team McGuigan' never made this mistake again as they felt 2 minute rounds did not suit McGuigans 'pressure' style of fighting.
