    Cronin was a very dangerous left-hooker who took out some Eastern Europeans with it in the amateurs and doubled and trebled it to body and head brilliantly against Ray Close from a peek-a-boo guard.

    Cronin was better than Lacy.

    Eubank can be seen countering in combinations at breakneck speed from hardly any room, and using every shot in the book in a variety of ways in just two and a bit rounds, while serenely relaxed despite a ripped, ox-strong-looking, white 12+-stoner going all-out at him...

    (Let's not forget Ray Close beat Dariusz Michalczewski back then before turning over, he had great pedigree and Cronin did him.)

    Eubank showed better skills against a better fighter. Though it's close on both accounts.

    Cronin looked hungry and fresh. Eubank had to be at his best to calm that storm. Ref did Chris a favour there. 2 or 3 more rounds and we could be taliking about Cronin -Watson or Cronin - Benn.

    Of course he did.
    Where did Eubanks opponent get all of those losses?

    The win over Cronin was undoubtedly Eubank's finest moment.

    Got to disagree...

    Any man who had the honour of beating Dan Sherry (no matter how) has had a career highlight!

    Why are you always licking Eubank's balls? The guy got beat twice by Collins who also beat Benn twice.
    Eubank was good,but he is no ATG.
    Now shut the **** up.

    You can't tell Atberry that, its akin to me asking why you're Leeds and proud when its a ****ing shithole.
