The first round of the first Eubank v Thompson fight Eubank looks like he might struggle with the strength of Thompson but the next few rounds hes so sharp! He drops Thompson a couple of times and one of them yes he does back off and then Thompsons strength starts telling later on until Eubanks eye swells completely shut and Eubank loses a close fight on points. They rematched just 3 months later but it wasnt long enough for that eye as it closed again and ahead on points Eubank is stopped for the first time when the doctor pulls him out.
