    Tiger. And Senior finds it very painful. One of the worst match-ups you could think of for Eubank.

    Tiger would be much too busy for Eubank.

    Tiger was two classes above Eubanks.

    Everyone's entitled to their opinon but i honestley don't see how, Eubank has no chance whatsoever of outboxing or outworking Tiger and slim to none chance of stopping him.

    I agree that everyone is entitled to their opinion...normally I would preface this by saying I am a biased Eubank fan, but I would also then need to preface it by saying I am a biased Tiger fan. I think Eubank is good enough defensively to stifle some of Tigers out put and in turn crafty enough to steal/win 6.5-7 rounds. I can’t go with 15 rds or I might flip flop my pick. I realize many find Eubank distasteful and/or overrated and that is cool. My pick is not a knock on Tiger who I think is greater than Chris, I just imagine Chris to edge this. I know many/most/all will disagree and that is cool...no sense doing a hypothetical if we all have the same pick.

    At least...plus, I don't see Eubank as being prudent or smart enough to adopt a strict jab and move/hit and run regimen that it would take (if your name wasn't Bob Foster) to beat the extremely powerful, but admittedly monolithic Dlck Tiger.

    Chris was essentially a big fish in a small pond.

    About the best I can say for Eubank here is that he was too tough and too stubborn to get stopped.

    And not being as good as Richard Tiger is no shame at all.
