What I saw in the arena, Fury, Eubank

[ross]

You do know Eubank was favorite and the least likely outcome was Saunders KO. The fight clearly showed it was too big a jump for Eubank. Eubank won the first 5 and won at least 2 of the last 7 to deserve the win. If Eubank had 2 fights before this one against decent standard opposition, like Blackwell and Ryder/O Sullivan, he probably would have won. But he fought like a complete tool in the 1st half of the fight.

When the fight was announced was Eubank favourite?

Im not sure he did win 2 of the last seven and one thing I can say is I was a boxing judge, amateur. I know its different but have an idea of what the judges should be looking for. You make odds, not judge fights. I wont have a stab at what I think fight odds should be

Eubank was slight underdog from opening til yesterday afternoon. He went off a slight fav.

Yeah it was just late money that bumped him up. He was the underdog.

I wish I had seen Eubank lose live , would have been very satisfying .
Eubank family have short memories dad got many gift points wins when he should have lost , so I fail to see how they can even complain in a close fight.

Plenty of gypsy men who went in there supporting Saunders also thought Eubank won.

Well if plenty of Gypsy men thought Eubank won , then i'm sure the BBBC will reverse the decision , based on their qualified , expert views. Do you often seek advice off Gypsy's ?

[ross]

He won the respect of a partisan crowd Al.

Not sure what your problem is tonight.

[La Cucaracha]

Saunders clearly won, split decision was a joke I think saunders gave Eubank too much respect and I'd see him beating him easier in a return
