Re: All the Brits will understand why this still makes the hairs on my neck stand up
When Eubanks fought Benn for the first time and his subsequent fights on ITV he was very good, but when he went to Sky and had that silly contract of making million pound per fight he was handpicking the worst fighters possible and they were awful fights with few exceptions. It was after the Watson fights admittedly and the road death which did affect him but the fights were terrible and he fought down to their level. He had a great chin but he made his money out of his early performances against Benn and Watson but truthfully he could not live with Roy Jones, McCallum or Herol Graham but that early version would have beaten Steve Collins with ease.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
