Chris Eubank was a true champion. I miss this kind of fighter.

It was impressive, compared with the fighters today, that Eubank defended his title so regular, but lets not forget a lot of those fights were utter shit, and as Britkid said, against poor opposition. You wouldn't get away with that in this current era with TV companies or fans.

To Eubank's credit, for a man that "disliked boxing," it seemed the tougher the fighter the better he fought, and without doubt he had massive heart and bollocks.

Benn-Eubank II is generally seen as a let down by fans old enough to remember all the hype and build-up and what not (I viewed it like that too). However, imagine if it happened in these times, when every fight every week from all over the world is readily witnessed, instead of a time when boxing on TV was pretty sparse, and you only saw whatever the TV stations decided to show, we'd probably not have viewed it half as harshly.

The majority of fights, week in week out, regardless of how good the fighters are, don't live up to expectations.
