    Classic Eubank in that avatar......Eastman was too good to be called gatekeeper.....although he was used essentially as one against Duddy, at WW and LWW its still Ben Tackie although his performance against Hatton Jnr suggests he may not be good enough anymore

    Glen is no gatekeeper and Zab ain't even a WW anymore.

    I'm thinking maybe Braithwaite is maybe half a step up still from gatekeeper
