    "A barrage of punches, accentuated by a left hookercut"

    I'm sure it was actually a left upperhook.

      Great win never saw that coming he can celebrate as much as he wants especially when you go into the fight as Underdog, no matter what he does he will be the man who destroyed Chris Eubank, in England that will make him a legend. He should fight Fundora Liam

        Whilst the weight cut probably has caught up with Eubank what this fight showed is anybody can be caught. If you land the right shot in the right place anyone can go. Great uppercut from Smith too btw.

          I saw Eubank being a Roy Jones clone too much. But he was doing Roy's sh.t all wrong. 1st of all, when Roy did it, it looked brilliant. When Eubank did it, it looked like he was practicing bad habits. Roy got away with things because 1) he originated the damned moves he was doing, 2) he was so gifted, 3) not only was he twitchy and super fast, he was a fast thinker and could improvise and change things in a millisecond, 4) when Roy made a certain move, he always knew what the opponents reaction to that move would be, and he knew instantly what to do to exploit that reaction. He was either setting u up, or creating angles on the fly. In other words, he was playing chess and was always so many moves ahead of you, he was damned near impossible to beat. 5) Roy had bricks for fists, along with the kind of speed that multiplied that natural power even more. Eubank is none of these things. Yes, he can copy and perform some the outer portion of what Roy Jones was doing, but he doesn't seem to know why he's doing it. Its like performing a karate kata without understanding the application. At that point, its just a dance
