Comments Thread For: Chris Eubank Jnr and Conor Benn do their famous fathers proud in a wild London thriller

[SteveM]

Agree with a lot of what you say but the reason Eubank fights at MW is that at SMW it's packed full of LHWs boiling themselves down so he is at a significant disadvantage. His best weight is probably somewhere in-between MW and SMW and able to rehydrate as desired.

correct - he is an in betweener. Like Danny Garcia was between 140 and 147. This was Loma's problem vs Haney at 135 - fighting a natural ww who could boil down to 135

[Slip jab]

The Benn horrible accents ruined it for me

Luckily you and your 'Eddie syndrome' are in the minority. These are not elite boxers but they delivered a compelling fight after a compelling promotion. Now we await to see if any of next week's fights provide an equally dramatic fight - it seems unlikely unless Ramirez and Haney go life and death.
For Eubank and Benn talking themselves into millions (plus the backstory) this side of the pond then read Rolly and Berlanga - obnoxious tw**ats - talking their way into million dollar paydays your side of the pond

As far as true boxing stars go, your side of the pond sucks a big one, as I see no one of the cloth of Jim Watt or Carl Froch campaigning now.

Con Man Benn and Fraudbank Jr. get vaporized if they face any of the Top 5 at 147 or 160, respectively. And you know this. The only fans who want to see this glorified rooster fight again are the tavern drinks on your side of the pond ~ nothing like fish 'n chips, cheap ale and a good rooster fight on the ole telly, eh?

He think the uk is a third world country, he must be Americans, and they call the Chinese peasants, couldn't make this nonsense up

They really are clueless aren't they, I had forgotten how bad these forums had become

[JakeTheBoxer]

Eubank couldn't win a world title if he made up his own weight.

He's terrible.

Who cares. It was a great fight still.

Enjoy Canelo -Scull next weekend lol.

Do you live in the UK? How old are you? I live here, I'm not young, as my byline says, I'm in the UK until I can escape.
Every winter the weather is shyte, grey skies cold and rainy. Most people can't afford to go out as much as they'd like to, the UK is in fact in transition towards becoming a 3rd world country. Might take 20,30 or 50 years - but it's on that path.

I wish the beer was cheap, at $10 a pint in some pubs it's anything but. Fish and chips was a staple, now expensive due to lack of fish.
Rooster fights okaaaay.
Like Rolly and Ryan? Jake and Mike?
Yes, eubank would be starched by canelo and Benn by Ennis but he maybe can beat Barrios. But just like Rolly would be made to look ****** by Caterall of a year ago.

Catterall had his chance and blew it chasing Taylor for over a year. Will he come again? Highly doubtful. The fact that Mario Barrios is the only champ at 147 you or Eddie would put Con Man Benn in with tells me all I need to know about how much faith you have in him. Benn will need protection at 147 and 154 ~ lots of it.

I didn't say anything about the fight on the weekend you daft cunt.

Eubank is terrible. That doesn't make him immune to being a in a good fight. Two domestic level fighters put on great fights all the time.

I've already said Benn isn't an elite fighter, why are you ban*ging on about it? Would be like me ban*ging on that Barrios and Rolly aren't elite fighters - but both have held world belts.
