    Impossible to call. Without weigh in pics from which Rakim could make a prediction, it's just too hard to pick a winner

    Eubank struggled with runners and struggled with southpaws, to get his feet into position to punch properly.

    Ward likes to run and to switch southpaw...

    I doubt Ward could hurt Eubank, and eventually Eubank would spark him out.

    I honestly think Ward has physical weaknesses that will become very apparent soon.

    I rather suspect it would have been a stinker, a brown ring stinker at that.

    Ward - I like Eubank but it makes me laugh how people big up Eubank and

    say Steve Collins beat a past it Eubank yet they were the same age and

    Collins had harder fights Mike McCallum,Sumbu Kalambay,Reggie Johnson

    Would Collins beat Ward ? No nor would Eubank.

    Boxers tend to age differently.
    Eubank also wasn't never the same fighter after Watson II.
    Prime for prime Eubank would beat Ward and Collins at the same night

    Collins owned Eubank, sick of hearing the excuses.

    Ward still has a bit to prove for me, I think in another 2-3 fights it will be easier to assess where he lies.

    Eubank clearly beat Collins, even despite the referee costing him 3-4 points with poor KD calls both ways, still I had Eubank winning rather clearly.

    Eubank was so upset at losing twice to Collins that he gave his kids away.

    Eubank looked like a clueless putz fighting on the front foot. He was absolutely woeful against fighters that didn't come straight at him. Very little intelligence to his game, and Ward would exploit that with a convincing, clear-cut victory.



    Whether he'd get the decision or not is another matter.
