    Competitive fight but I think Eubank would have hurt him and KO's him mid to late rounds.

    Eubank counters and hurts Taylor late. Taylor wasnt cut for the style of Eubank

    Eubank @ middle prime would destroy Taylor imo especially the Eubank before Watson fight as he understandably lost that finishing instinct after that fight.

    Eubank would have knocked any version of Taylor cold. And i hated Eubank.

    Taylor wins. I understand why Brits love Eubank, but he never met anyone as good as prime Taylor (or Hopkins).

    Eubank beat fighters as good as Taylor and some better in my opinion. Eubank beat -
    Benn a 2 weight world champ
    Rocchigiani then undefeated former world champ who went on to become a 2 weight world champ
    Plus Eubank beat other very good and world rated fighters in Wharton, Watson, Holmes etc.

    I think Eubank would have beaten Taylor by KO

    the only reason Hopkins couldn't even score a KD against JT is because he wasn't known as power puncher at middle ..Not the case with Eubank ..Eubank would have put a serious hurt on JT ..

    Eubank is too strong for Taylor. He might have probs with his speed early but i don't doubt for a second that Eubank would stop him between 7 - 10 rounds.

    That's not a slight on Hopkins it's just Eubank is stronger physically than both and his straight punches and uppercut would be disastrous for Taylor. I don't see Taylor hurting Eubank at all and his stamina issues would only leave one outcome imo.

    Eubank was better than Hopkins...Tougher, hit harder with a single punch, beat better middleweights....? and even though he was criticised for just going enough..? and fighting at his own pace like Hopkins. Eubank could really rumble and fight, and with real hardcore Middleweights...........

    I think he would stopped Jermaine Taylor late, in a entertaining competitive fight.

    Eubank, the robotic muscular stiffler who happened to have beaten Benn and Watson, was better than Hopkins :tired The Ring magazine certainly agrees with the illustrous career of Chris who is also a very popular human rights and social rebel ... Like parking a truck in front of the Palace :rofl hardcore Middleweights Eubank has rumbled with b'sides Benn and Watson... Rochigianni maybe? Or Steve Collins with his hypnotics therapist? Damn... Please accept my friendship invitation in this site. You r one of a kind, Primadonna, one of a kind to say the least...
