Did Collins copy Watson`s strategies when fighting Eubank?

    Watson was very cautious in his first bout which was a bit of a chess match but in the rematch Watson went right after Sr, not giving him a moments rest and Collins seemed to do the same, mainly countering carefully in his first bout v Chris then charging in like mad often in their rematch, did he study the Watson bouts?

    Watson showed 100x more technical skill than Collins in each of their respective rematches with Mr Eubank. One was bobbing and weaving and blocking and throwing short shots to head and body at high tempo, as well as jabbing, and the other (Collins) was raggedly charging in head first and throwing cuffing scuffing arm punches
