Robin Reid vs Steve Collins

On their best day?

Collins probably outworks Reid but wouldn't be surprised if Reid dropped Collins on the way. Reid was a puncher and loved the over hand right. Eubank nearly had him out of their in the 10th of their first fight but didn't really follow it up and missed a massive opportunity.

Reid was good, not great. Had a decent chin but could be lazy.

 

Would also pick Collins. Reid would get smothered by him.

 

The BEST of Robin Reid would take this fight but 9/10 Collins would get it. He was much closer to his peak for a lot longer, he was a bonfire to Reids firework

 

Lee jones summed it up perfectly, reids best was probably as good If not better, but Collins was a solid 7 every fight Reid was hit and miss, although to be fair had Reid gotten the Calzaghe and ottke nods people would look back very differently

 

Is this a joke? Collins was streets ahead.

 

reid would stop steve marching forward with brutal bodyshots and win a decision

 

Collins, as much as I like Reid and rate him. I think Collins would take it.

Reid beats Benn and Eubank though.

 

Collins really.

reid had some class to snatch a title, but not the class to keep it. Collins did.

 

Collins would be made for Reid. Points win for Reid similar to the Henry Wharton fight

 

Reid beats Eubank? Whaaat??

 

Collins grinds out a decision.

 

Was Reid not thoroughly outboxed by Henry Wharton of all fighters for 4-5 rounds before Wharton mindlessly changed tactics and came on? The earlier Collins could box- using very good ring movement, a timed jab and sharp combinations.. Robin was very flat-footed and a pure counterpuncher.. Eubank with his super lateral movement would surely box circles around Reid in every minute!

 

Lets not forget Joe C was completely dominating Reid for 3-4 rounds before his hand broke..

 

Collins on points, were talking both in there prime
