Good, intelligent analysis by Cooper. I've always admired Essuman but he probably is reaching the twilight of his career. There was a period of about 3-4 years when he was British champion & Conor Benn wouldn't go near him. Conor Benn would've gulped down a sewer rat raw before he'd get in no ring with Ekow. It was pretty disgusting but I'm afraid he just waited Ekow out.
