Eubank vs Watson 2 - Round 11 has to be one of the best rounds ever.

I believe Watson tried to sue him for that statement. Eubanks called it misguided and I believe Watson tried to set him up to say something over the phone years later.

It was a quality fight and Watson was inspired, never seen him perform like that in his whole career. He was world class and would have given anyone trouble. Eubanks showed heart and punch power, which is why Roy Jones showed him respect.

Watson also had an excellent performance against Benn, and just to let you know Eubank said in his own words that he would never have beaten a prime RJJ

The loss to Watson was also the best thing that could have happened to Benn. He said that the hype had gotten out of control and that everything was fake... even the pony tail he sported for the fight.

Eubank said that he would have fought Roy Jones if the fight had been made but that he was not about to go looking for it. Personally I think Eubank would have lost agianst RJJ but it would have been a great fight.

I disagree i don't think Eubank vs Jones would of been great fight, because they both have unorthodox styles i can't see the action being free flowing, i can see it being a cautious/messy boring fight with Jones winning a UD.

Maybe but if they had fought before the Watson fight when Eubank still 'went' for it I see ego playing a part and I think they would have got involved more. I think Jones would hit Eubank a lot more than he was used too and this would make Eubnak come forward more. I agree the action would be sporadic and messy at times but I thing there would have been drama but would still see Jones winning by decsion.

Agreed that Eubanks, the one that went 9 brutal rounds with Benn and the 11 against Watson was something very special. That was the Eubanks, Roy Jones respected because he had a chin of iron and a will of a lion and would not be beaten. Although Roy would have won, Eubanks would certainly go for the victory.

Everyone brings up what RJJ vs Eubank or Benn would have been..


But i've seen on youtube a prime James Toney going on british tv calling all british fighters bums and calling out both Eubank and Benn saying he could beat them on the same night.

THOSE bouts I would have love to seen, Benn vs Toney and Eubank vs. Toney
