Nobody was a better sharp shooter than SRR, he stopped Jake once in multiple tries ,when Jake had weight making problems .
When did Eubanks ever prove himself over 15 rounds?

 

Jake also consistently outjabbed Robinson in the 6th.

 

Life and death!? Hahaha. He kept taking rounds off or fighting only 45 seconds a round and posing the rest. He was often completely drained to the limit, a cruiserweight making 168 then blowing back up to cruiser after the weigh in.

Eubank fought in 12 round fights because 15 rounders had ended.

 

Exactly my point. Exaggeration though.

 

Wow. Ha!

 

Yes life and death!
Ray Close 115-115,113-116,116-112,
Ray Close 114-117,118-112,115-114.
Mauricio Amaral 116-113,115-113,115-114.
Thulani Malinga112-115,116-112,115-113
I know 15 rounders had ended.My point is Lamotta was proven over that distance many times and Eubanks never fought it!

 

Well they clearly weren't life and death young man, Eubank was walking around posing most of the rounds and just gave rounds away (as he did most of his career) due to the constant starving. I worry about some of you guys.

The more pressure LaMotta puts on and the more rounds it goes, the more likely he is to cut. Very basic stuff to understand.

 

They were fights that could easily have gone the other way as the scores clearly show and had they not been in the UK ,very well might have done!
Don't worry about me fella I've been watching boxing for 58 years,and I did it for 20. Want to guess how many fights Lamotta was cut in? Lamotta was the one constantly having weight problems and that is well documented. I worry about some of you youngsters.

 

You're seriously saying those fights could've gone either way, and have not mentioned the Schommer fight which Eubank CLEARLY lost!? You haven't watched any of these fights, have you, you've boxrec'd. Eubank coasted to win 6 rounds only and take the rest off, his usual thing. The Malinga fight wasn't even close (even though Eubanks head was obviously elsewhere after killing a road worker a week before!! - front page news), Malinga's robbery came against Benn.

The Close fights, hmm I guess the first one due to Eubanks laziness but he was smiling throughout and not a mark on him. The draw verdict was surprising when announced. Amaral was lively for a bit but well-beaten.

The British judges always scored against Eubank and the US and Puerto Rican scored for him (even the second Collins fight, when he CLEARLY lost 11 of 12 rounds before retiring).

 

Jake's weight struggles weren't on the same stratosphere as Eubanks, who on more than one occasion passed out on the floor after a weigh - in.

You worry me

 

Jakes power in the end

 

I not only watched them I was at some of them!
Look at the scorecards. Eubanks benefited from a degree of protection he feasted on C level challengers, defending a B level belt.
You're also wrong on the judges bias.
Benn 2 DRAW. Roy Francis gave it 115-115,Harry Gibbs115-113,Chuck Hasset114-114.
Ray Close1 Francis115-115,Dave Parris113-116 Torben Hansen116-112.
No Uk Judges for the Amaral fight.
No UK judges for the Malinga fight.
No UK judges for the 1st Watson fight.
Parris voted for and against Eubanks in fights.
Francis voted for a draw in theBenn fight and against him in the 2nd Close fight.
No evidence of bias there.
Your condescending presumption is mindboggling ,as is your conviction that you know what your are talking about.

 

Oh dear.

He was so far away from death in those fights that its not even funny. You're on cloud cuckoo.

 

Life and death is equivalent to touch and go in boxing parlance.You are being wilfully obtuse, do me a favour put me on ignore . I'm getting zero sense from you. Just patronising condescension from some newbie who opened his first remarks with this absurd sentence
"Not seeing a Caucasian swarmer lasting 15 rounds"
In101 fights Lamotta was stopped 4 times ,one was a fake, two were by lightheavyweights the other was by a p4p top4 ATG.
He was never stopped by cuts.
Go away and bore someone else TROLL.
