Nick Blackwell vs Chris Eubank Jnr

[Primo Carnera]

"Jacobs v Eubank is a fight that needs to get made."
Assuming Eubank wants it. After all, he could've fought him last night. He CHOSE not to fight Jacobs, let's not forget tha.
Jacobs ko'd Quillin in the 1st round last time out. I know Quillin's career hasn't gone how it should've and I don't like his lack of professionalism, but has Eubank beaten anybody in his league? Now, is he still "made for Eubank"?
Ps. Ross , you're a twat. When you haven't got a reasonable answer or have been found out, you come out with the "pathetic" line.

How should his career have gone? Continued ducking top opposition to maintain his "0"? Quillin never beat anyone in Eubanks class either I would say yet a lot of people seemed to think he was better than Golovkin.

Quillin should've taken his career more seriously. Promotional disputes, coming in for a World Title fight overweight etc.
and your comparing Quillin with Eubank, I was comparing Jacobs and he ko'd Quillin in 1. By your line of reasoning , who have the guys that Eubank has beaten actually beaten themselves? If we carry on like that, isn't it getting ridiculous?

Regarding the comparrisons with Golovkin.

Had it been Golovkin in with Blackwell and Eubank in with Murray would the results have been much different as to what happened to Blackwell and Murray?

Murray did well against GGG considering he was hurt and put down early by Golovkin.

Murray would have tested Eubank if he stayed at middleweight. That would have been a good fight and test for Junior.

At last!! People who know what they're taking about telling it how it was.

No tears here friend, I just think the whole 'never been in the ring, no knowledge ' is annoying

I actually thought the fight should have been stopped, I wouldn't question anyone who thinks differently though

[Primo Carnera]

I would like to ask a question to all those people who have laid blame for Saturday night on the trainer, promoter, referee etc.
After the fight was stopped, and Blackwell was stood talking to Eubank Sr., how many of you thought "he's going to be in trouble here, he's going to end up in Hospital in a coma?"
Yeah, thought as much. At times like this everyone brings up the McLennan tragedy.
It is believed that the Blow that did the damage in that fight was as early as the 2nd or 3rd round, yet he went on for a few rounds more.
The ref and trainer are not doctors and don't have a scanner with them. They can't say "oh wait , that's the blow, better stop the fight!"
Still , easier to sit in your armchair and slag people off isn't it? That'll fix everything.

You make out like he wasnt getting hit repeatedly. It was a joke. There was a massive gulf in class and skills and looked exactly like the OSullivan "fight" bar the corner having any sense.

So what's your answer to the previous question? Oh, I forgot, you're not very good at answering questions.

I don't think the fight should have been stopped. It's easy to be wise in hindsight. But Eubank though he landed some heavy shots. He was never badly rocked Blackwell, never knocked him down, sure he had him against the ropes, but he was sloppy with his work, and tried to con the ref into a stoppage, by doing that Joe Calzaghe thing of throwing loads of half arsed punches and hoping the ref will step in.

I pray for Blackwell, an induced coma ? In that case there is a chance he could die. There is a chance he could wake up and be like Michael Watson or Gerald McClellan. There is also the chance that he could make a full recovery but there is no chance we will see him in a ring again that's for sure.

Yes and Eubank did that with the punches that werent hurting Blackwell. Go figure!

I never said Chris Eubank Jnr did not hurt Nick Blackwell. I'm saying Chris Eubank Jnr never badly rocked Nick Blackwell because as soon as Chris Eubank Jnr hurt Nick Blackwell. Nick Blackwell came firing right back, plus Nick Blackwell looked strong throughout the fight. Nick Blackwell's body posture and demeanour was that of a strong fight who was still in the fight. That's why I think the ref was reluctant to stop the fight, that and Chris Eubank Jnr attempts to end the fight were sloppy punches.

Isn't it funny , and by the way I wish Nick a full recovery , however Joshua KOS brutally Whyte , but its regarded by some as just a British standard fighter.
However Eubank Jr has now failed to win by brutal KO in 2 back to back british standard fights , however he is world class ?
Nothing like double standards.

Let what go? Ignorance?
