C'mon man, that's just ridiculous. Think of it this way - modern era of boxing has been going for 115 years now, which averages out to about 9 fighters per decade. Forgetting the fact that the numbers are backloaded, do you think Eubank was one of the best 9 boxers of his era? Probably not even close. He was good, and possibly underrated if anything, but he's not close to being top 100 all time.
A friend of mine is a big Eubank fan and said he was a top 100 ATG. I wanted to get everyone's opinion on it and I will share the results with him.
Very good fighter, not a top 100 atg by any stretch. He would have beaten every 160-168 pounder today though.
Great fighter, amazing fighter to be honest. But one of the best 100 fighters ever to get in a boxing ring? Nah, sorry.
exactly. tyson is top 50, eubank isn't close. but i think eubank is 95-100 along with the likes of (off the top of my head) jimmy carter, bennie brisco, valdez
Bro dont mean to have a go at you but theres no way that Tyson is top 50 of all time,if it was just based on talent i could see that but he simply doesnt have the resume to be ranked that high.
