    Something about Eubank being ashamed of his African roots

    Right! I can see where Collins might have been coming from with that remark.

    You shouldn't mean inbetween the ropes at all...

    This thread's a joke, right?

    Eubank needs to go into management like McGuigan. Pick up good talent and help them succeed.

    'Eubank has forgotten his roots. He is of African origin and seems to have forgotten that - instead he pretends to be an Englishman.' Steve Collins on Chris Eubank

    'To be accused of ignoring my roots is pig ignorant. Collins's racist comment has focused my mind on the fight and I will beat him.' Eubank on Collins"

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2003/aug/03/boxing.features1

    I would't consider this racist, although its not something I would of said had I been Collins. I think Collins is just so proud to be an Irish man that maybe that's the angle he was coming from or something.

    Just seen Chris on Saturday there.

    He was standing outside the Malone Lodge hotel, looking dapper as usual.

    I take it he was over for his son's fight.

    Went home to grab a camera, and a piece of paper and pen, but by the time I got back up to the hotel he was gone.:|

    Collins had a way of getting into people's heads, but I definitely wouldn't call him a racist in any way though. Whatever he did, it must've worked twice! As great a boxer as Eubank was, I think Collins always had his number.
