Thoughts with Nick Blackwell

[Andre]

Quote attributed to Eubank

"But if he does to stop it and you keep on beating him like this – one, he is getting hurt. "And two, it is you who will have to make a decision. Why has the referee not stopped the fight? I don't know why. "But maybe you should not leave it to the referee. "So you are not going to take him out to the face, you are going to take him out to the body." -

There it is.

To me, that's typical Sr. Talking in riddles. But if you want to believe that he has some 6th sense, that's Up to you.
So , in summary, in your book he's saying "don't bother with head, because you'll hurt him, but give his ribs a good hiding and finish him off!!! Yeah, loads of empathy!

Common sense, not 6th sense. ,Did I mention 6th sense or empathy?

Anything else you want to attempt to insinuate on my behalf or his in saying it? Maybe like we are trying to turn this game into the fucking ballet or something instead of a punching contest?

Im saying many refs dont know what they are looking at and some others dont care anyway, they are there for the audience and more fan views first than being there for a boxers protection.
That would of been Eubanks only thoughts, dont you think?

When your opinion is wrong you argue like a little keyboard warrior rather than someone whos supposed to moderate shit like that.

The press conference was to do with the fight itself and because of what happened on the night they couldnt have one afterwards. The press wants to ask them questions at a press conference. We are being told that Blackwell is on the mend and this is when they have held it 3 days after the fight. Are you that bitter you wont allow Eubank to have a press conference on his fight? Was it not one of the best fights youv seen in a British ring this year? Reign it in with the bitterness.

Definition of opinion -
a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty.

Therefore, by the definition of the word, an opinion cannot be wrong.

Hope this helps.

You should try telling the few who tried ridiculing me for believing in Tyson Fury last year

Opinions are like arseholes, everybodys got one - Clint Eastwood

I was trying to remember who you were Ross. Thanks for the reminder.

Yeah I'd have taken a different stance in my interviews since the fight if I were Eubank Jr.

Full of self importance, boxing has been around a lot longer than the Eubanks, they arent the first people to suggest a fight should be stopped before it was

What he is saying doesn't put the sport in a good light either, it's inly going to sway public opinion one way

Everyone hates a showoff,specially one in the ring, we get that fine.

Issue is not that here though or OH LOOK ARENT THE EUBANKS GLORIOUS or any other shit that opposes anything their haters think.

The real issues it raises in those who care for fighters health, is refs and when they should call a one sided beating enough.


Also turns out some people here who have the audacity to call themselves fight fans would have allowed this to continue,thats the other side of the coin.


Can you see this its a good vid,

I like Eubank jr, he's as an exciting fighter as there has been in a long long time

I hope he develops the power and can stay as exciting as he steps up

Then he will be a super star

I can't see the video that was posted but I did see an interview with jr and Sr on channel 4 last night, whilst I don't agree with the things they are saying about how they took it easy on him etc, the questions they were being asked were pretty shocking

Now you have put a man in a coma have you thought about quitting?
Would you give up the belt if it meant Blackwell making a full recovery?

They are loaded questions designed to make jr look like a cunt with his answers (and let's be honest, it's not like he needs any help with that)

Maybe this one? this interviewer as some says in the comments is a mudraker. Would of added mudraking cunt to that personally.

2 days ago we were told Blackwell was being brought out of the coma in the next 24 hours. Has there been anything else?

I have seen a recent BJS interview with Kugan Cassius on IFLTV on youtube. He sounds like a few on here, arguing irrelevant minor points, like the coma itself even! Saying Blackwell was put in an induced coma rather than as a direct result of a Jr punch. Like the Eubanks are going to be proud theyve put someone else in a coma!? Saunders is a gobshite and will not give them any credit! He also says that it looked like Blackwell was missing something, didnt throw as much as he notmally does. Thats because he got here here more than he normally does!!

His family have released a statement to say that they want him to recover in private and not to believe any statements that don't come directly from them or his camp, that is the only thing I have heard since hearing about him being bought out of the coma.

I thought he was put in an induced coma because of the bleed/swelling on his brain, is that not the case?

There it is.

To me, that's typical Sr. Talking in riddles. But if you want to believe that he has some 6th sense, that's Up to you.
So , in summary, in your book he's saying "don't bother with head, because you'll hurt him, but give his ribs a good hiding and finish him off!!! Yeah, loads of empathy!

Common sense, not 6th sense. ,Did I mention 6th sense or empathy?

firstly, I don't even think Eubank has much common sense. secondly, you said that Eubank was talking about why the fight wasn't stopped from the 5th round ! so, are you saying it should've been stopped in the 5th? if yes, that's ridiculous , if no, then why post it, apart from to highlight Eubank's 6th sense? the empathy is due to the part where Eubank Sr. is saying go to the body not the head. Hope that clears that up.

Anything else you want to attempt to insinuate on my behalf or his in saying it? Maybe like we are trying to turn this game into the fucking ballet or something instead of a punching contest?
no, not insinuating anything depending on your answers to the above.

Im saying many refs dont know what they are looking at and some others dont care anyway, they are there for the audience and more fan views first than being there for a boxers protection.
That would of been Eubanks only thoughts, dont you think?

with regards to some refs, although you're being a tad harsh, I can see where you're coming from and I think you have a fair point. Some refs do think it's all about them or are trying to please people rather than care for the safety of the boxer. However , I don't believe Victor Loughlin falls into that category. I actually thought he reffed excellently all the way through the fight. The fight got stopped exactly when it should have imo. it was stopped because of that lump on Blackwell's eye, and as long as that wasn't the cause of the actual bleed on the brain, that did him a favour, because he was taking Eubank's punches , was fighting back and would've through his own toughness and pride regrettably have continued for the full 12 rounds which may have made his situation worse, although I'm not a doctor. And that is my point here, the trainer and ref are not Doctors and couldn't foresee this terrible situation. So for Eubank Sr. to hold press conferences saying he would've stopped it etc. gives the press a perfect story to sensationalise , which is exactly what they're doing.
and if you think the ref doesn't care, trust me the press couldn't give a flying fuck, they are scum.

[Andre]

Im saying if Snr could see it coming through the head shots (on experience not 6 sense) why couldnt the ref see the same? And im a 100% certain it wasnt his ego talking. Even the commentators where in and out questioning it from that point on and they also fell for the guys heart too and thought he had a hope. Fighters with heart are great but its the ref who is there to protect them from themselves.

Lucky he got that eye damage I suppose or he maybe dead. In reality though even that doesnt damage the sport much. It just gives the anti violence dudes something to bite on for a while. But theres nothing to worry about as per norm this sport isnt going anywhere over ring deaths it hasnt yet so it never will.
I still think refs need to be held accountable though,I think bad judges need to be as well, ones who are miles out from the other two judges need looking at. Three strikes they are out, that would be fair.

[Andre]

No secret either Ive always been a 100% with this guys views regarding some refs. They should pay to put some refs through clinics on certain issues by someone in Rons calaber. Commentary: Ron Lipton—Missing in Action - Boxing.com

this is an interesting piece, and I brushed on his comments earlier.
