      The thing was Eubank had very good skills combined with personality, that's what made him special, you can't compare him to a side show like butterbean.

          he doesnt get recognized anywhere else. walk up to ANYBODY in the world and ask "do you know who chris eubank is?"

          i promise you this: 99.9% of the people you talk to wont have a damn clue who chris eubank is. people dont know him because chris eubank isnt worth remembering.

          ur fanbase is no reflection on your skill.
          Sorry, I'm totally confused with this... you slag off Chris for not being well known (in America)... then you say even if he was well known that doesn't mean he was any good?


          What the ****????? Where's the logic in that?

            Oh... last three decades. I was including this one, though I can see how that could be misinterpreted. But I meant 80s, 90s, 00s.

            Muhammad Ali fought in the 80s for a very brief time, but in no way would be be considered one of the best for his performances in that era, sadly.

                No... YOU'RE the ******, boy.

                You made TWO SEPARATE STATEMENTS.

                The point you were making in ONE contradicted the point you were making in the SECOND. Capish?

                  pot calling the kettle black.

                  in my first statement, if you ever read it, i said: except for the UK and this web site, nobody knows who chris eubank is.

                  in my second statement, if you ever read it, i said: just because people know you, doesnt mean ur any good.

                  if you want me to sum it up for someone as simple and ****** as you, hows this: nobody except the UK knows eubank, and just because the UK knows him, doesnt mean hes any good.

                    Oh Jesus Christ. Is it just me or is this guy talking ****. Look, call me all the "low intelligence" epithets you want, it doesn't bother me. Particularly when it's obvious how thick you are.

                    So Chris is crap because he's not well known... but he's also well known that doesn't make him good?

                      instead of trying desperatly to insult me, and failing miserably, why dont you try and prove me wrong?

                      your reading only parts of what i said and switching it around to make it seem like im contradicting myself when i made it clear what i meant. i made it so clear, that im actually suprised that you didnt understand it.

                      chris eubank is overhyped, overrated, and unmemorable.

                      if you want me to make it any easier for you to understand, ur a ****ing imbecile.
