    I think you should add Keith Thurman to your list.

    Boxers by nature have to be deluded, nearly every single pro will have defeats, you can't afford to have self doubt if you're that competitive looking to win..
    By nature they are different to the average Joe. A good example is Joshua who has certain attributes but lacks the mental fortitude to be elite, the first defeat created self doubt and he's not been the same fighter since.
    Having said that Eubank is especially deluded and a clown.

    Eubank Sr had his own issue, yes, but he certainly accomplished much more than his son ever will.

    BJS took Eubank Jr to school in 2014 and George Groves - who already had one foot out the door, himself, completed Eubank Jr's education in 2018. Those fights were enough to tell me that he wasn't going to get to the very top of the sport. Heck didn't Liam Williams managed to look good against Eubank Jr when he wasn't getting knocked down. How does that even happen?
