    Bizzarely his stock has risen so much more than had he won the fight.

    I've certainly warmed an awful lot to him. Seems a nice guy

    I warmed to him after the Williams fight, and an interview he did not too long ago he showed his more normal side. Would be rooting for him if the Saunders rematch gets made. In their first fight I was a die hard Saunders fan for that one night only

    Yeah, he is a good guy. Glad the fight didn’t happen, 160 day of weight was ridiculous.

    Big fights at 160 now please

    He hasn't seem as arrogant in some of his latest interviews.
    Maybe he was trying to live up to an oddball persona to follow in his dad's footsteps

    Brother died too which may have changed him as a person.

    Clean living and rarely swears or acts a roadman. Also shows patience for the super eccentric father.

    He's a good lad.

    I always thought he was a decent guy, with him just playing the pantomime villain at times. He's always talked outside of the stereotype cliche in interviews, and been quite interesting/illuminating at times.

    I'm glad he has come out of this whole fiasco with something after training really hard to boil down in weight.

    Eddie would have been hoping to feed him to Benn and then push Conor as his next big superstar cash cow (even though he would get smashed at world level).

    I'd love to see him Eubank Vs Smith. Whatever the result I think it would be a great scrap

    Imagine if he actually stopped GGG and actually got the Canelo fight!

    This is all a publicity stunt, much like the microwave auction and the tattoo removal. Not a chance Eubank gives a damn about fans or anyone else for that matter he is a total narcissist and jumped on this opportunity to better his image. If your impressed by this your an idiot quite frankly.

    People also warmed to his old man later on in his career as well.

    It's funny how things come full circle.

    Maybe, but his family have been through an awful lot. Cut the lad some slack.

    I agree and he does seemed to have 'mellowed' after Seb's passing but he is still a complete ****. The type of guy who pays fake paparazzi to follow him round on a night out. Surely the LV combat jacket is a bit of a giveaway. I know people who know him on a professional level and they all say the same. Arrogant *****.

    He handled the whole week very well.

    So I am comfortable with being an idiot.
