:shock: Eddy almost got beat by French journeyman Tony Averlant in his last fight, Also lost clearly to Stieglitz, You can make a case for 8-10 but 6 is surprising.

 

Eddy had an off-night in his last fight and still won a close but clear decision.The fights before he was better defensively and technically sound + fully concentrated .He is the kind of boxer who rises to the occasion.The better the opponent the better he performs.

 

I liked how he raised to the occasion against Stieglitz who if not for the WBO SMW strap should not ever be ranked higher than #6 in the division.

 

he got schooled by a more experienced fighter
if they fight now he has learned enough to win a lopsided UD against Stieglitz
my rankings are not based on what fighters did in the past but how they would perform now
he is a hard worker with a clean lifestyle and eventually that will pay off
if the fight with Bellew happens he will win more convincingly then Cleverly did
