Reporter: "What do you think of this whole debacle with the trainers, the different trainers and the lack of sparring and so forth.."

Eubank: "I'd train Naseem myself. I've got a lot of affection for this kid, I've known him since he was a boy and I know how much boxing meant to him. If people aren't doing their jobs, if his brothers are acting like clowns, I'd step in, fire who needs to be fired and just train Naseem myself. It's physicality, I have my knowlegde of the martial arts which is all about distance, timing, actions and reactions. I'd train Naseem to knock Barrera out. I'd have his muscles stretched to the bone, learn him how to absorb punches effectively and have him punching with 1.25 tonnes of pressure. Then on top of that we'd bring the psychological aspects into the equation, I'd learn him about psychological dominance and the art of war and bestow upon him my philosophies of combat. It would be a winning formula."

Reporter: "And you think your qualified to take over as Naz's trainer?"

Eubank: "You see, I knew my craft as well as anybody in my opinion because I really wasn't blessed with much natural ability and was a late starter to boot, it took me more gym hours to learn moves and punches than others who reached the top and I had to literally create my own physicality. But uhh, it's upto Naz, you know?"
