I know this. I saw it first hand.

It had a lot to do with Eubank punching him in the belly and face

Not sure what your problem is tonight.

I have no problem , Eubank lost that is what the record books say , and according to many he lost to a feather fisted over rated champion.

Is he over rated?

He only got battered about over the second half (where his experience should have taken over) by a novice who's been a pro half the time he has and not fought anywhere near the quality of his own opposition, pr been to the olympics.....

You miss my point , BJS is not very good , however he won the fight , so Eubank isn't very good either.

Eubank has the capacity to be much better simply by starting earlier and no loading up.

Saunders tried his best using all his experience and a special training camp and getting in the best shape of his 6 year pro career. He doesn't seem to have the same capacity for improvement. When Eubank adapted, Saunders struggled to keep up.

I think Saunders has reached his level also.

and Eubank can do better.

Lets wait and see , all I know is if he throws shots from the floor like he did against Saunders , someone like GGG will put him away easily.

Pro fights, no. Im in Guernsey so a mission and costly to get away. This had 2 of my favourite current fighters on it and was too good to miss.

Well Eubank could always come over here and challenge Mundine .

Simular weights, theres a 'silver' title,Both are father son teams,both like show boating, both like mouthing off how great they are,both think they are the next best thing and love the media trumpet.

Be like smashing two mirrors together.

Ross,

If this was your first one you have now learned

1. That if there are a load of pikeys there you are better off well over the drink drive limit and happy, I base my experience on Johnny Frankham versus Chris Finnegan at the Albert Hall.
2. THat FRank Warren is a cunt, who treats performing fighters and paying customers like shit, he's been promoting for years and the cunt still cant work out a timetable?
3. That to get back from Exel after FRank Warren 'showtime' has eventually finished costs us england dwellers £75 or more in a taxi to get home, or even a hotel!
4. That Terry Marsh, the first ever European World champion to retire undefeated, was not that good on the ranges when he was a marine.

Fat Micks shows are normally good, so your half way there picking Fury to follow, but if you'd picked Price you would have the best promoter in Europe in Kalle Sauerland, and if your flying anyway whats the difference between London or Germany?

Eubank claimed he is the best in the world bar maybe Ward. He clearly isnt. Hes a tremendous talent with great physical ability. He probably will win a world title at some point but I dont think he'll ever be number one in his div. If fighters are going to hype themselves up the way he has when they fail they will get criticism. Its fair.

On a side note when they were announcing the winner Saunders went mad when Lennon Jr anounced "and still undefeated". would have been comical if it was Eubank.

Eubank has to bring more than the uppercut and learn how to throw it from the right distance. Dude is an accident waiting to happen

Saunders would beat him again
