I read the HBO mob were critical he didn't get Barrera out quicker, no wonder fans get so confused buying the hype they peddle.
Haha, this is what influences people. Fans nowadays don't seem to realize that a 12 round constant demolition showing superior boxing skills can be a better performance than a KO at times. Sometimes an early KO or any KO can be because of a mistake , whereas a consistent 12 round lesson showcases skill . This is why people thought Eubank was good, and then he got exposed.
