:blood Are you trolling or just suffering from some kind of mental ******ation? Gotta be one of the two
Log off wasteman, you've already been shut down numerous times in this thread, don't feel the need to embarrass you further :rasta
Eubank would have beaten Ward. At this time all Ward has beaten is an unwell Kessler with illegal tactics and Kessler had already been beaten by Calzaghe, A Green beaten clearer by G Johnson in his next fight, Bika beaten clearer by Calzaghe and Bute, Abraham beaten clearer by Froch and Miranda beaten clearer by Bute. Eubank beat Watson, Rocchigiani who went on to become WBC LHW champ, Wharton, Holmes and Benn who you know to name a few
Wow, you really do know **** all about Eubank to run from a discussion without making any sort of point to back up your BS. Pathetic.
Most of that is pretty irrelevant and/or incorrect. What does a Bika or Green formline have to do with Eubank or any of his performances? Not to mention that you can't even get a formline correct. Also, you're talking about resumé, and not taking the fighters strengths, weaknesses or stylistic idiosyncrasies into account. Question: What do Rocchigiani, Wharton and Benn have in common?
I know plenty about both and I expect more about Eubank than you. Resume wise you cant compare as Ward is still believed to be quite young in his career, but I doubt ward could use the hold and hit to great effect with eubank. I expect Eubank would time Ward with overhand rights and possibly stop Ward
No chance in hell. For a start Eubank rarely threw overhand rights on the inside but would concentrate on body punches - his poorly thrown overhand right was usually saved for a opponent off balance or at mid-range. Eubank would be at advantage inside, but if Ward decided to box exclusively from the outside, we're talking 120-108 Ward here. Eubank isn't closing any gap against a far superior athlete who can move laterally.

You were meant to disappear after your last post, yet you're back, and STILL haven't said anything to either discredit facts or at least back up what you believe. Do you even know why you believe what you do?
not a Eubank fan but I seem to find you in these threads getting so worked up? shut the fuk up and relax ffs. why don't you tell me what Rocchigiani, Wharton and Benn do have in common cuz I don't see it other than the first two being stiff plodders
I'm not remotely worked up, I just like putting people deluded about Eubank in their place. It's fun When people start being more realistic about the British middle/supermiddles of the 90s, I'll stop.
Ron Essett was a lateral mover and Eubank won every round; he had that abnormally long reach to land a straight shot and abnormally fast body sways to get back out without being hit. Largely down to his high hips allowing him to reach in and pull out but it was effective against a mover. He turned that shoulder away and just wouldn't get hit with more than one shot, usually a right - very occasionally. His D was top-notch - foot movement, body movement, lateral head movement, covering at the right times. Ward's attacks are fairly fast but telegraphed and would be no problem for Eubank.
