Did they draw ??
Eubank drew against that Irish guy Close and then Benn - not sure if they were consecutive though
was the heavyweight Holmes ??

Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
no it want drawing. But all five boxers did the same thing. look at Eubanks record and see what during his career he did in consecutive bouts. And the heavyweight wasnt Holmes, but he did box Holmes.Originally Posted by Mark TKO
CORRECT it is Bonecrusher, He lost to HOLMES for the IBF title, beat Witherspoon for the WBA and lost a unification WBA & WBC to Tyson..The clue on the Eubank one is that he's the only one of the five who did it in consecutive WORLD TITLE FIGHTS. the other 4 did it over a longer period and as someone asked it was not drawing.Originally Posted by Bomp
Eubank drew in consecutive bouts - just checked !

But he also did something else in consecutive bouts. Something the other four also achieved, but not in consecutive bouts. The question isnt about consecutive bouts, but what he did he did in consecutive bouts. and heres a massive clue MICHAEL WATSON.Originally Posted by Mark TKO
Beat the same opponent twiceOriginally Posted by SEANIE
Almost it is beating the same opponent twice. but lots of boxers have beaten the same opponent twice, spinks beat holmes twice, bowe beat holyfield twice, duran beat estabes twice. your almost there. look at all five boxers records. ive basicly given you the answer EUBANK did it in consecutive bouts against WATSON.Originally Posted by Violent Demise
They beat the same opponent in world title fights at two different weights.Originally Posted by SEANIE
CORRECT, but can you name the boxers they beat and for which titles?Originally Posted by Mikkel_K
Well, without checking on boxrec (although, admittedly, I actually looked Eubank's record up earlier): Eubank beat Michael Watson for the WBO MW and then WBO SMW title. Sugar Ray Leonard beat Duran at Welter (cannot remember the belts), then SMW (WBC?), Iran Barkley beat Thomas Hearns at MW and later LHW (cannot remember belts).Originally Posted by SEANIE
That leaves us with Hill and Chavez. I know that I should know these as well, but somehow, well, they're just not there at the moment.
Keep trying youll get there.
Virgil Hill Beat F.Tiozzo at lt.Heavy for WBA and then almost decapitated him for the Cruiser belt in rematch.1st round blowout (who would have thought it)
Chavez beat Roger Mayweather twice.At Jr.Light ko 2 and at Jr.welter ko10
Cant remember in which one but Roger had him staggered good w/big right.
correct.Originally Posted by Spicoli Surfs In 'Nawlins
