    Mcclelland. He had him badly hurt in the first round but i think he was fuked before the end of the fight and it kept getting worse. U cud see him change all of a sudden after the first round, sumthin was wrong.

    What are you talking about man, McClellan has never fought Eubank so how could he have hurt him badly in the first round, that was Benn you drunk paddy.

    You know exactly what he is talking about. Why don't you simply remind him that the fight he is talking about was with Benn, instead of trying to be smart?

    I think McClellan's overarm rights would be effective against Eubank, who liked to dip and lean, though they wouldn't catch him cleanly. But if it came to standing off and boxing, Eubank was looser and deceptively rangier with better defensive reflexes, better lateral foot movement.

    It would come down to standing off and boxing, because the pace would have to slow at some point if McClellan started off fast, which he may have not anyway.

    Eubank on points is most likely.
