I dont know why with hindsight i see this as such a easy win for eubanks.i cant believe im saying this....but if we take the eubanks of 1990-93 i see a very determined guy with an iron chin who could outbox jackson out point him Now during the actual time i wouldve picked JJ.....but i guess the carl thompson fights later prove to me eubanks takes JJs best punch if neccesary and survives
I'm in total agreement. Eubank , with his back to the ropes and under pressure , could really fight. He also had a solid Chin , so I see him getting a very late in the fight stoppage .And it would make for a thrilling bout.
Eubank was very hard to stop in his prime and Jackson wasn't really one to outbox him either, so I'll go with Chris sr here. Probably by stoppage when Jackson started to fade a bit. JJ has a very live chance here, though. Especially if he's smart and goes to the body well. Eubank was more vulnerable to body shots than head shots. He would not like to take Jackson's best to his midsection.
Jackson was a little bit better boxer then given credit for- threw nice straight punches and didn't throw wild shots. At middle I think Jackson was starting to fade and I might take Chris but I wouldn't bet anything on it-Jackson hit harder then Benn and Benn had Eubank on the deck.
Eubank granite chin would ensure he would survive Jackson bombs and in grueling war of attrition Eubank comes out on top and stops Jackson in 9 rds.
Eubank is a bad choice for Jackson a bigger man better boxer with good power himself and of course a rock solid set of chops .Jackson is battered into submission in about five rnds .
