    Eubank was undefeated for 10 years.
    The first British boxer to be involved in 20 championship bouts

    He was 'Simply the Best'

    The list would be boring without him

    I do think he won the first fight with Collins.

    I wonder how he'd be rated if he retired on a close loss to Jones in '95 (having got the decision against Collins).

    About 30-90 at mo. Well, 29-92.

    Interesting.

    I said maybe about Kalambay. Might have him loitering around the 100 mark. I havent delved to those kind of depths yet.

    No, it would be correct. All those defences are meaningless on an ATG scale if you refuse to fight the best fighters. He was 'Simply the Best' on a domestic level.

    Chris Eubank could have been ATG top 10.

    What happened to Watson was a awful, and affected his killer instinct because Eubank was one of the best finishers ever.

    He did look that way inclined in his early career and early championship fights.
