    Eubank is a bit of a nutcase.

    Sounds to me chris paid this woman to adopt his kids so they could go to America to study and stuff. Then something happen e.g. she tried to blackmail him for more money, it didn't work and she went to the press.

    I don't know how visa's and stuff works in the states but i doubt you can just go over there at under 18 to study without a parent or guardian.

    Jnr seems to have turned out well so whilst you may not agree with his methods you can't dispute the end result. We've all seen the youtube video of Jnrhaving a street fight so yes maybe it was necessaty packing him of to America so that he can become a man. Its like parents sending their kids to boarding school.

    Don't think there's anything wrong with what Eubank did. The adoption was a way to give them the opportunity to live in America, it's not like he gave them up when they were 4. It's not really that different to being sent to boarding school.

    Compared to the offspring of your average sportsman/celeb they seem to have turned out alright.

    Putting your children up for adoption isn't a big deal?

    No, not in the circumstances as it sounds like everyone was happy with it and it had the kids best interests at heart. (Just like a scholarship)

    You know what i don't understand about Eubank (and a lot of other boxers for that matter)

    It says in the story he is bankrupt.

    I know a lot of people a similar age to Eubank who have worked normal jobs their whole life on fairly normal wages and have managed by their mid 40's to have a nice house, a comfortable lifestyle, a nice chunk in the bank saved up etc

    Then you have a guy like Eubank who had god knows how many world title fights, big fights that were on TV, sponsorship, endorsement deals, his own tv show, personal appearances etc etc he must of earned MILLIONS in his career

    How the **** do you end up broke like that? it really puzzles me

    I never understood why he did that, or why he puts on the accent, I think the only time i've heard "his" accent is after Benn I.

    Would you rather he wrap them up in wool?

    I really don't see the big deal here.
