I want to see this press conference!

[WWatt]

Benn, Eubank and Don King in New York in July 1993 to announce Benn-Eubank II.

In attendance were Michael Nunn, James Toney, Gerald McClellan, Roy Jones and Terry Norris.

Apparently Eubank put on a great show where he completely wound Benn up to the point where Nigel just got up and roared "I'm going back to England to train for this fucker!" and off he went! Then Eubank put on exhibition sparring with the guy who worked as his sparring partner Chris Pyatt and apparently really humiliated Pyatt with his showmanship etc.

This was recorded on handheld camera, I want to know who was holding the camera and where the F*** the film is.

Help.

I think all thoese other fighters in attendance as you put it would beat Eubank by the way.

Eubank beats all of them, with the exception of McClellan.

Beats them in what.............chess,cards,monopoly.

NOT IN BOXING!

Well, that's your opinion and your entitled to it.

But the fact that Toney stated after the Barkley fight that Eubank would be the most difficult opponent out there for him, and the fact that Jones stated after the Toney fight that Eubank was the only fighter who could give him a challenge, probably means that you'd be more confident of their chances against Eubank than they would.

Eubank had about the weirdest style in boxing, and could of given ANYBODY fits.

Look at the way Jones and Toney fight.If Dan Sherry gave Eubank trouble they would out box him with ease.

Lol, don't play word games. And Sherry wasn't giving Eubank that much trouble, he was just playing hit and run while getting beaten up in the process.

I could say if Sanderline Williams and Dave Tiberi were robbed against Toney, Eubank would out-box him with ease.

Eubank won a S*** load of debatable desisions.

Yeah, because he purposely only did just enough to win post-Watson.

Biggest waste of talent I've seen.

forgot the decisions... he was so frustrating to watch because he rarely boxed at his full ability... Eubank was a very skilled fighter who didn't like showing it, especially when he didn't have to.

Yeah, if he'd faught Ray Close a few years sooner he would have beaten him easily. He definately boxed within himself towards the end of his career (post Watson)

Say what you want about Ray Close, but he was the only future pro to beat Dariusz Michalczewski in the amateurs and also beat Fabrice Tiozzo just before turning pro.

the press conference was good....
Eubank said to him on the lines of...

'Nigel Benn is a fairy liquid fighter, if you cann him hard enough he will pop.........I have class, something he does not have and that's why i will prevail.'

When talking about the actual fight about his prediction

'I want to put him on the floor, just 10 or 11 seconds will do.....I've beaten him before, I just want his title'

Thats not exactly what he said but it was something like that.

ps....cann not to be mistaken with can

Nigel Benn signed my copy of his autobiography while he was opening a clothes shop in Croydon.

He asked what I thought of it and then said "well, at least it's better than that fucker Eubank's book is going to be"
