    yeah this fight is going the distance , the only chance of a stoppage is if the fight is over 15 rounds and eubank is pulled out because of exhaustion very late on

    not even then mr butt.they could probably set this fight for 116 rounds and it would still go the distance.
    eubank would be apalled at the way lamotta speaks englittth:lol:

    Eubank UD, better jab, faster hands, better right, bigger puncher, stronger too. It would be close due to Lamottas pressure but Eubank gets the best of it

    :good Too bloody true. I agree with you that La Motta would seal it on points. How many middleweight champions of the past could beat Eubank ? Quite a few. How many of those could knock Eubank out ? VERY few. Cast iron chin.

    Eubank would be spending most of the fight trying to survive the onslought, easy points win for lamotta, not that eubank would have taken a fight with lamotta in any era.
     
  11. How many could knock Eubank out ? NONE , the fight would go to the judges and i would favour Eubank due to his speed punching power and footwork , remember Eubank always worked best on the retreat , Lamotta would come forward constantly and Eubank would counter and win on points

    Lamotta's work rate and body punching tire Eubanks late...Calzage had him down...Lamotta couls wear him down for the late stop
