But tanker old boy Eubank was(effectively) beaten by Benn, Watson and dominated by COLLINS was he not? Or am I fantasising what I used to be looking at with my own eyes?
Collins not british and fight was at super-middle so I refer to the thread tittle Also he got the nod over Watson at middleweight and stopped benn at the weight Both benn and Watson rematches were at super-middle
Mcvey , a question how good was johnny Pritchett and have you a view on his dq loss in Italy to Carlos Duran . Was he winning the fight? And was his a talent wasted
Its hard to argue against Eubank though based on those wins over a prime Benn and prime Watson. He also brutally stopped Hugo Corti who had taken out legendary iron-chinned Hugo Corro with one punch.
Steady on there! Benn threw the first fight away with crummy preparation, and Watson REALLY won against EUBANK. in fact had the verdict been correct in the first fight there would have been no eubankvwatson rematch and poor Watson prob be healthy today.
