Hahahaaaah this was just put up [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdJ6ze-6EQ0[/ame] Miss him, technically good or not.
Re-watched some of his fights. He showed a lot of skill in Watson I, guys. He was catching punches and countering sharply, as well as avoiding many punches by narrow margins; though those are maybe more reactions than timing or technique.
:rofl:rofl Euuuubannnk Euuubannnk Euuuubannnkk. What a legend.Could see the guy didn't have a clue what to say when he gave him thumbs up.

as a kid i thought eubank benn collins stretch all good i loved the era for british boxing:good, will it ever get that back ?. wednesday nights saturday nights on normal tv it was f**king brilliant:yep the full family would watch even the step father who really is not a mad boxing fan but even he says he misses it
He was much better on the backfoot than he was on the front foot, on the front foot he often reached with his punches imo, or jumped in and left himself in a vulnerable spot.
I like that he has his own way of things,when someone fights in an usual style,it makes it harder for opponents to prepare for them. lol,eubank was so corect on his comment on vitali,those europeans"spoliers!" lol,so true!. i like the interaction and discussion of style from lewis and eubank. i could watch that kind of thing all day!.
Yep, he'd also sometimes have to switch stances because his forward movement and the over reaching had forced him to.
Notice how he used to scamper away sometimes to? his footwork was all over the place if he was not set to punch but was being put under pressure.
