He wasn't retiring Eubank. He jumped up to cruiser and proved he was still a beast after Calzaghe fight. Joe was too good for him
Howard Eastman sparked Collins in sparring before the Calzaghe fight was talked about. He knew it was time to say good bye as his chin had started cracking badly
he went BACK to CW after being a temp stand-in at SMW. But yeah he wasnt about to retire straight away, just nearly ready to retire, at CW he lost two fights after that to add to the long row of losses previous, thanks for correction.
this is really about kidzaghe not his dad, lets keep it to this. the only topic relating to his dad we should discuss is whether kidzaghe can emulate joe by making one or more major world title defences, for instance. you can do it kidzaghe!
No one would have guessed Eubank Jr n would get this far given his soft upbringing. But goes to show you don't have to be born into poverty to be a good boxer as some people like to think So has a good chance. But he's not even on step 1 of 10 yet so let's not jump the gun
Eubank was preparing for a fight with Mark Price at Light-Heavyweight when he was asked to step in at 12 days notice to fight Calzaghe. I know you know this because I've told you before. Eubank had never fought at Cruiserweight before he jumped up to fight Thompson.
quite right thank you, eubank had to drop a whole division on just 12 days notice. wow thats much less time than i touhght way worse. terrible to expect that to be a world title opponent. cheers
Calzaghe made 22 world title defences Herol graham couldn't win a single world title fight deal with it!
