Chris Eubank v Bernard Hopkins.

Hopkin's by murder.

Not Eubank's best weight either.

 

Hopkins, cemented. But I'd have to think over on how it would go.

 

If Benn couldn't stop him let alone murder him I seriously doubt Hopkins could.

Not his best weight? The man never lost at 160.

It would probably be the ugliest fight ever. Hopkins has never beaten a guy as strong as Eubank. Both are masters at nicking rounds, both very awkward. A KO is out of the question to my mind - Hopkins too good defensively, Eubank too solid a chin. Its close so I'd pick the one with home advantage in a close (possibly split) decision.

 

Oh, I don't think he'll knock him out cold. Eubank has an iron chin.

BUT... Hopkin's has stopped plenty of iron chinned fighters.

Sole man to stop Trinidad, Hoya and the iron chinned Glen Johnson.

In his prime, Hopkin's stops him on his feet.

 

Hopkins is alittle overated imo ,but he is still a more complete fighter than Eubanks .Eubanks had decent power and a good chin ,but hef ought in flurries ,Hopkins wouldnt let him set the pace and after the 8th would start to take over, Eubanks survives,he didnt lack guts ,but loses a decision.

 

Can we please leave religion out of this ? It has no place on a boxing forum,especially when couched in offensive remarks.

 

No one murders Eubank. I'd give Hopkins the edge,but in his prime Eubank was one hell of a fighter and even when shot went 12 rounds with carl thompson which is more then David Haye could manage.:bbb

 

Eubank didn't blow his load early because he was 20 years old and trying to make an impression.

Not to mention Haye might weight drain even worse than Eubank used to.

 

My point was if Carl Thompson a cruiserweight couldn't murder (as you call it) a shot to **** Eubank.A prime Eubank isn't getting murdered by Hopkins.As I said I'd go for Hopkins in a close fight,but it ain't a foregone conclusion.

 

You'd figure Hopkins to win but he wouldn't murder Eubank. Thats an impossibility. Hopkins is a little overated by some on this site.

 

**** poor examples of great middlweight chins, Trinidads chin is suspect at LMW nevermind MW, Delahoya was never a MW and Johnson was a solid but none great fighter who wasnt in his prime Hopkins isn't some middleweight monster, he doesn't have massive power

If Eubank can take Benns best, he'll laugh at BHOPs best, BHOPs has a higher likelyhood of being stopped as hes been down and hurt against far lesser fighters

I see this as a close decision that could go either way, BHOPs was not a level above Eubank at all but all round was better schooled with a tighter defense, Eubank had a better radar, better reactions, athelticism and was a bit snappier, Eubank had a better killer instinct. Eubank was also the much stronger man

 

Hopkins on points.

 

Wow! I am a big B-Hop Phan...and Eubank is among my top favs of non-Philly guys. I think this could go either way...I also think a KO one way or the other is not likely, barring a perfect shot, which I can't believe either guy would give the opening to the other to land. Hop's would stay in this, but I think Eubank would land more and more effective shots...Norrow decision for Eubank

 

I dont think BHop would knock him out but he would give him a serious boxing lesson.
