    Has Watson got enough to beat the former Middle weight champ?
    The Watson that challenged Eubank at Middle facing Minter from the second Antuofermo ft.

    Id Say Alan wins a narrow decision unless the old cuts get opened up again.

    Wow what a thought, never though tof this one before.

    I think Watson. Got a little stronger at 168 I think but strong enough at 160 to get enough of those straight punches away and tough enough to survive those difficult moments. But would be a fun fight.

    Was thinking of Eubank fighting Minter then clicked why not Watson.
    I like to think they have a couple of fights and give us classics.

    I’m taking minter by decision and I’m quite confident
