EUROPEAN fighters good at ducking fights or do we blame their promoters?

I dont think its 50/50. I have never seen Darius fight so I cant say. But I do know Roy has had a very easy career.

I'm one of the other 50 percent around who believes Dariusz would've beaten Roy. But that's far from being the topic here and I've already discussed it over and over again. I can see where you're comeing from and I respect your opinion though it's false in my eyes. Let's stop this right at the beginning because we wont agree anyway.

There were numerous votes on this topic in this very forum. I still believe that most of the people who voted for Roy never saw Dariusz fight. Nevertheless there are some points that speak for Roy and as the fight never happend it's pointless to discuss about it. Believe want you want, it wont change a thing.

i hate european so called world champions ,guys like eubanks and dariusz and cal***gi r a joke they didnt fight nebody n were only recognised as world champions in ****ty euro fighting ****ty euro bums ,these euro fighters just will not come to america cos they know that they'd be exposed outside their comfort zones

Eubank defeated four American fighters in a row on ESPN defending his title (Jarvis, Essett, Thornton, Holmes) and Eubank actually started his career in America. Dariusz defeated the best that America had to offer in Hill etc. Calzaghe has defeated the best that America had to offer in Brewster and Mitchell. Eubank stated that he wanted to fight Roy Jones in America and Dariusz always called him out, and I'm sure Calzaghe would of jumped at the chance. Idiot.

Eubank stopped Nigel Benn and Michael Watson at their peaks, Eubank beat Graciano Rocchigiani IN GERMANY defending his title. Eubank won his first 43 pro fights with 19 world championship wins, others on his resume include Sugar Boy Malinga, NABF champ Ronnie Essett (in Portugal, Michalczewski fought on undercard), USBA champ Tony Thornton, Kronk's former IBF champ Lindell Holmes and classy British star Henry Wharton (British/Commonwealth/European champ) to name just a few. You also have to actually Watch Eubank's fights to realise what special talents he possessed.

Also, Eubank isn't very European. Michalczewski and Calzaghe are, Michalczewski is half Polish/half German while Calzaghe is half Italian. But Eubank's parents were full-on Jamaican's and Eubank graduated from high school in America and won the golden gloves in America. Eubank just isn't very European, he lived on the streets of East London and that's not very European, he's black and he's definately not upright like European fighters are. Eubank moved side to side so he was 'American style' if you like.

You don't have to watch that pussey JuJuy boyfriend, he's phukkin boring. Eubank scared of that pussey Dariusz and Dariusz never had any career defining win. Eubank always try t hype that bums Rocchiagiani and Malinga to make his resume looks impressive. Body Snatcher beat the living shiet out of Collins and Watson and Collins washes off Eubank. Eubank always try to make his excuses like he could have or would have but phukk this guy is hypothetically great. He was scared of Body Snatcher and Toney. Jujuy always try to quote Eubank excuses and all that. Of course Eubank gonna mage a good account for himself. The reality was he was boring and uninspiring. And ****fashe has no career defining win in his career. That glassjaw Brewster and that decent Mitchell is not America has best to offer you idiot. You cannot manipulate the facts dumb ass. Dariusz allways say ohh I want to fight Roy but he stuck his sorry ass to milk whatever he can get.

what we really need to do is stop looking at fighters as national treasures and such, and just look at them as fighters, period.

Good post and nice thought. Wont change anything though I fear.

Eubank scared of that pussey Dariusz.

Dariusz turned down big money offers in 1997 and 1998 to come to England and fight Eubank. And Eubank was willing to travel to Germany in May 95 to fight Dariusz providing he got through Close in March 95.. but then a spanner was thrown into the works when Close failed a brain scan and Steve Collins was a late replacement with his infamous hypnotistic crap that freaked Eubank and stole his title (and his career).

Your right Chris Eubank is not European even though he has a European last name. I guess thats because Negros never invented a written language. I dont feel very American because I was only born on American lands because my Superior White European ancestors conquered ( NOT STEAL) but conquered American lands and then prospered.
