    He'd lose at some point and then Naz would tell him to retire.

    First thing i would do is send him off for 3 months into a legitimate military boot camp, where he will he expected to respect people treating him like crap every day.

    No doubt he’d lose at some point but he won’t look like a novice and he would be able to display the warrior code.

    What Eubank Sr. should have done when Jr. was a kid.

    Jr's bad attitude won't get him far at boot camp.

    Needs to tell his old man to step back.Replace Davies(doubt he's allowed much input anyway).I'm surprised SR didn't hold a mirror for JR to do is cut eye himself.

    In his fathers words.

    He-Jnr is not a slave.

    Snr sounds like he has turned into one of those FMOTL fools...

    So yes Jnr needs unplugging and reprogramming.

    I imagine something like from the therapist scene with Robin Williams and Matt Damon but telling Eubank it is his fault not that it isn't repeatedly

    It would be tough but not impossible

    He’s not got the experience and he’s been carefully matched and arguably fell for the hype himself, he thinks he’s much better than he is

    Caught off balance too often, over reaches far too much, too predictable and lacks boxing IQ

    They need to get his basics right, get him working on footwork and getting a jab together to let his fast combos come. He forces them too much rather than setting up

    Whether it’s too late and/or he’s too stubborn we’ll see..

    hes almost 30 years old there is nowhere to start, he is the boxer he will always be. You can't learn fundamentals that late.
