    He is strong and athletic. But his boxing technique is poor, especially his footwork. BJS is technically miles ahead, only advantage Eubank had over him was strength and size.

    The few times Ronnie Davis gave Jbr some advice, Snr would walk into the ring, tap him on the shoulder (as if to say ok shut up now) and then Davis would just zip it?

    Senior seriously needs to go away, i said to my brother dont be surprised if Jnr and Snr have a massive bust up sometime in the near future. Personality clash between a guy who loves the limelight vs a guy who loves being arrogant ignorant.

    and on a lighter note, did anyone notice during the Fury ringwalk, one of the fans was leaning right over the railings and one the security guards pushed his head down and nearly pulled him over the railings!

    Disaponted with Chris during the first half. Even more interesting was when Ronnie and Sr had a bit of a disagreement over instructions! I also thought Chris looked far too tense, and desperate with the wild off balance shots that at World level would have been countered with a devastating ending. Future potential for sure if he can sort that bloody corner out!

    Ronnie will have some colourful stories to share once he leaves the Eubank camp

    Eubank is too unorthodox. Like an Ingle fighter but worse. He has no jab and no footwark, which is what got him into bother last night. He just couldn't set anything up without going to war. He's a tough lad, good punch on him and has some skills but until he can jab and move he's going to be up against it.

    Because in a hard, frustrating fight he didn't want to hear someone talking to him? :patsch

    Just looking for an excuse to bash the guy imo.

    Pretty much agree with everyone here, he has the talent, athleticism and strength but is too rough around the edges and lacks some of the basic elements. Also agree with he couldn't set up a proper attack without having to go to war. There was one round though where he went old school bobbing and weaving and looked pretty good doing it.

    But if he keeps himself disciplined and focussed, then he can go onto grabbing a world title.
