Chris Eubank vs. Gerald McClellan

Not sure about this one. Mclennans body punching could be a worry for Chris.

 

I agree with your opinions of Eubank and thats coming from a fan of his.

 

Dave, how the f*ck can you claim to know ANYTHING about boxing when you say silly things like 'Eubank would get stopped in round 6'.

NO ONE ever came close to stopping Eubank at all,let alone in 6 rounds.Watson came closest and got damaged for life.

McClellan lost to an aging Benn but Eubank beat a PRIME Benn which gives us more than a gauge to go on.

You say Watson was just decent fighter based on one dodgy performance against a HOF McCallum.

Watson beat Benn in 6 by KO and slapped Eubank around and even dropped him,until that famous Eubank uppercut and then being unfortunately stopped in the 12th, Watson pwned Eubank.

Watson's career was cut short and cannot be gauged by one poor performance after being out of the ring for a year and even then, he still went 11 with McCallum which is 9 rounds longer than Julian Jackson, though I'm sure you'd be more than quick to suck off Jackson when describing the G Man's win over him.

Watson was world class so STFU.

Mcclellan would NEVER stop Eubank at all, certainly not in 6.

 

Horrific nonsense.

 

Eubank is superior in everything but power. Decision win for Chri'th. The puncher's chance isn't terribly high for Gerald the **** McClellan due to Eubank's tremendous punch resistance.

 

i was/am a huge ben fan, but going on the styles make fights theory we have to adhere to, i think eubank beats g man too....benns career defining victory for me....eubank was an enigma to me, on the nights he put it all togetehr he was amazing, superb reactions, decent, clubbing power, granite chin, superb conditioning and a monster at the weight, a big, big man...

i think this fight is an excitong one for the first 6 rounds as chris acclimatises to g-mans power, style, but then chris pulls away down the home straight, perhaps having gerald on ***** street a few times up to a close but clear decsision....

mclelland is another enigmatic fighter, could have been a great, but essentially we will never know because as we know the inspired benn punched the fight out of him and left him ruined, tragically...

 

Eubank always looked his best against guys that came to him as he was a pure counter puncher hence why he looked good against guys like Benn and Wharton but then struggled with boxers like Watson and Close.

Gman would come to him which would favour Eubank and despite his vaunted power he aint stopping Eubank. A faded Eubank took full power shots from a big punching cruiser like Thompson so it's pretty far stretch to think he would be able to stop him. He could hurt him even drop him but not knock him out.

I see Eubank winning on points. He was quick enough to out box Gman and had the chin to negate Gman's best weapon.
