Tired of hearing cynical haters accusing Eubank Sr of lying

    Firstly, I hear NB is being brought out of his coma in the next 48 hrs so all thoughts are with him and his family.


    In regards to comments i've been reading over the last few days... Why would Engllish tell Jr to go the body to get the job done, when Nicks face was a real mess and clearly any more facial damage would elicit a stoppage (which it eventually did anyway)?

    Are these people not aware of how badly Sr was haunted by what he did to Michael Watson? With an UPPERCUT, the same shot that was worryingly snapping Blackwells head back over and over?

    I find it very distasteful how the Eubank haters are questioning the great mans word. Who are these slags to say '100% English wasn't concerned for Nicks health'? Pathetic.

    I agree totally. It's pretty hard to deny that Sr was a bit worried about Nicks health. It was obviously a brutal fight by that stage and Nicks face was banged up.

    Anyone claiming they know 100% is just speculating.

    Eubank Sr's words could be construed as tactical. On the face of it, this actually makes more sense. However, when you add the Watson element into it, the justification gets a little murky.

    Ultimately, unless you are Sr, then no one trully knows.

    It was a bit of both. Why 100% one way or the other? It was clearly a bit of both.
