    Thats precisely what Spike wants him to do. His da make the same mistake against Steve Collins 20 years ago. Groundhog day.

    Well, if you turn out to be right then kudos to you. I'm a big fan of Steve as a fighter - he was levels and levels about O'Sullivan on his absolute best day IMO - but don't rate Spike at all for a number of reasons as you know.

    Personally I think this will prove to be a mismatch but hope to be proved wrong.

    Except Eubank jr won't let spike off the hook like Eubank senior did with Collins.

    Len you haven't a clue. That was embarrising by Spike. Froze when the light was on him and you could tell he **** himself. I want Sike to win but his only chance is a lucky punch.

    Thought Spike was really poor in presser! Just wants a payday it seems and from his mannerisms I give him no chance

    Spot on the money, :good and believe me, i'd love to see Spike lay Eubank out.

    Spike has the power to hurt anybody at the weight, trouble is he isn't skilled enough to find the target at this level.

    Eubank ain't all that, but he's far more skilled than Spike.

    Do you know this is a boxing match? Not a 'best media performer' competition? Talk is cheap. Bottom line is CEJ chickened out of the face off. Get a grip.

    What is 'this level' anyway? Eubank is not hard to hit at all. He should suit Spike a lot more than BJS did.......it will be decisive one way or the other and Spike has a chance here. Eubanks hitability gives him a chance......

    It is bizarre. Not sure why Len said round 1 to Spike only to then claim the press conference preambles mean nothing anyway when people don't agree with him.

    Personally, I don't buy in to the whole "he was beaten at the weigh in" BS that gets bandied about so often as people just usually pick the brasher character as the 'victor'.

    does worry me a bit.


    Overlooking an opponent is a big no-no.....
