Eubank could be a very lazy fighter, and try and steal rounds with making his opponent miss, good defence, movement and countering. For me he wasnt that accurate, and he used to throw a rubbish overhand right hand when he had to take it to the fighter, On the front foot eubank werent great, he was very on the backfoot. But he could box well and a decent power, GGG can get hit, so he would get hit. But eubank would have to throw more than 1 punch to keep GGG off him, the later rounds eubank may sense hes losing or its close and pull out of the last few rounds. But gennady golovkin Majority Decision. Both of them could be put on the canvas, Because Eubank was very good at luring you onto the right cross or uppercut.
I'm amazed at those who says Eubank gets ko'd,do they know anything? He took huge shots from Nigel Benn and others and he was never near to being ko'd. Having said that i'd probably take GGG to shade this simply because of Eubank's low work rate.
If GGG lands that Macklin liver shot, Eubank might not get up either. He notoriously couldn't take shots to the body.
I watched his "loss" to Gaydarbekov. GAG clinched for dear life and got a gift from the judges for it. I wonder what about his other 4 losses. How real were they ?
Benn was till maturing the first time he met Chris. He became a better boxer aftertwards, and arguably beat him in the rematch.
I went with Eubank by decision, as one of the americans that knows a bit about Eubank, kinda shocked that so many picked Golovkin by knockout. That is outlandish.
Collins dropped him on a body shot. Both he and Watson showed that if you stood your ground ready to counter Chris' wild swings, he would retreat from you. People mock GGG's defense, but these matches proved how easy Eubank was to hit, keeping his hands by his side and throwing one-twos, taking a picture afterwards.
I can't see how anyone seriously thinks GGG would KO Eubank. He had an iron chin, he took bombs from a huge hitting cruiser in Thompson who was a genuine one punch KO artist at world level. When Thompson hit you clean you were usually unconscious before you hit the canvas. No way Golovkin can do what so many others failed to do and KO Eubank. Eubank is at least a level or 2 above anyone Golovkin has fought. Eubank tended to struggle with boxers and counter punchers. Guys that came to him like Wharton and Benn he usually out boxed and out lasted and I see the same happening with Golovkin. Benn hit harder and was even more ferocious than Golovkin and he beat Eubank hard to the body in their first fight and Eubank still beat him.
WTF are you talking about? Golovkin got off to a great start in that fight only to be clinched and pecked to an eventual decision loss. Gaydarbekov fought dirty and sloppy getting the benefit of doubt from the judges in that fight. Another amateur loss of Golovkin's was a one point loss to Dirrell in Tunica, Mississippi. Clear home cooking for dirrell in that one. The other three losses I have not seen but one was on countback.
