    I don't think Eubank gets stopped, because he had a very good chin, was durable, cagey, and never got stopped until his final fight, which was at cruiserweight. Eubank had a style such that not only would he not get stopped, he'd possibly beat Jackson.

    replace eubanks name with almost any 154-160 pounder not named lamotta, greb, gavilan, graham or robinson and this still fits

    I don't know there..... Funny, but Jackson lost a step at 160 pounds... Jackson was a killer at 154, but 160 seemed to tame him a bit... Jackson was never the real threat at 160 like he was at 154.... Plus, his chin was so-so at best...

    I can't remember him ever being seriously hurt by a headshot, he went down a few times but jumped back up. So im gunna say he properly survives, but anythings possible with jacksons power.

    I'd definitely favor Eubank over Julian Jackson prime for prime. Eubank is a larger, stronger man, and a lot more proven in wars with his trump card durability. While Jackson hits like a ton of bricks, I see him getting stopped late.

    No mention of Hagler in your list?

    Have i misread the title? Is it "Who would win in a fight between jackson and eubank?" or "Is Jackson capable of knocking him out?" ?

    Ive went with the latter whilst,i think, most have went with the former

    No. I regard Jackson as the hardest hitter ever, but Eubank took bombs right up to Cruiser.

    Anyone can be knocked out, but with what we know of these two men? Not IMO, Eubank had a rock solid chin.

    Hard to say. Eubank stayed at home and didn't take on the Julian Jackson's of this world.

    Jackson could knock out a horse so I wouldn't doubt he could KO the hard headed Eubank if he got sloppy.

    Very difficult to see Eubank being knocked out. The left hook he took flush and fired back from against Anthony Logan in the 2nd round of their fight was collosus!-sounded like a bullet. Logan had left many men cold with that shot early.
