He did. Williams was no chump. Came in with a solid game plan and executed it early in smothering and out working Toney but once Toney got distance and worked off ropes the ceiling caved in on him. Toney half assed a few fights but at 168 his wins over Williams, Barkley and Littles were quality. He also handled and beat a inspired Thorton, RIP, much easier that Eubanks had just a year earlier. One I personally had Tony winning just barely :-X
Crazy when you think about it..Toney and Eubank were a lot alike in the ring, lots of posturing and timing out rounds. Little bit flat footed and egos that needed additional dressing rooms.

Eubank liked fighters to come at him and Froch would duly oblige. Eubank just counters him all night long and takes a decision.
Eubank had a very fragile psychology as demonstrated by Collins. He was spookable. All that front usually is just cover and unfortunately his son seems even more deluded than his Dad. Eubank Jr did not boss Froch in that sparring video and will come apart at the seams like a badly made toy as soon as he actually fights somebody other than the guy who delivers the gyms water bottles.

I agree it's a terrific match, pretty sure I'd pick Eubank on his best form, he was much less consistent than Carl so forget how good he was some nights. However, one things for sure, the gene pool couldn't lose in the event of a tragedy:-X Two absolute first class jackasses imo. Eubank was before my time and there must be some reason he's well liked, but to listen to him now... Christ, I just feel like he should have things thrown at him on a regular basis.

Lol he is very annoying living vicariously through his son. He might be suicidal if the kid gets beat.
Obviously has the same tailor as Don Cherry.;D The dandy.
