Chris Eubank Interview 2000

[Kid Achilles]

Tyson really isn't that big of a guy. He looks like nothing more than a cruiserweight in that picture with Eubank.

He weighed a muscular 215 in his prime but frame wise he is no bigger than Marciano or Frazier.

[masterdirector]

I've always liked Eubank from the few things I've seen on him and the highlights I've seen. Haven't seen a complete fight of his unfortunately. Would like to.

Eubank weighed about 200lbs a while after he retired. But yeah I'm left scratching my head at how Tyson looks so small there??

You should do. I thought he was an excellent fighter with lot's of craftmanship and finesse, he was a pure counter-puncher who moved around the ring smoothly, he was under-rated and under-achieving.

It's a shame that he never did have that third fight with Benn or the fight with Toney

Eubank and Tyson - both born in 1966

Eubank and Tyson - both spent most of their childhood on the streets

Eubank and Tyson - both have strange voices (Eubank's lisp, Tyson's squeek)

Eubank and Tyson - both intelligent, they like to use words that you are forced to look up for in the dictionary!

Eubank and Tyson - both headcases, both nutjobs

Eubank's trainer - http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=137661 (a white Welterweight)

Tyson's trainer - http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=009529 (a white Welterweight)


It's quite strange actually, they have many similarities!

Eubank and Tyson - both ******s!


This is getting weird.

Michael Nunn was guaranteed to face the winner of the Benn-Eubank re-match in a WBC/WBA/WBO unification clash. James Toney was guaranteed to face the winner of the Benn/Eubank-Nunn fight in a WBC/WBA/WBO/IBF clear-out.

But Don King forgot to put a clause in the contract of the Benn-Eubank re-match for a draw!

Has JUYJUY lost it?
