    Wouldn’t go amiss to tighten up his defence while he’s there though.
    You see given eubanks ego in general I wonder if it is the padwork or just the name association he likes? I wouldnt travel from England to usa just for padwork. I think its an ego massage to go over there and Instagram the training footage and it might partly be a bluff to casuals who will associate mayweathers name with being atg training methods etc.

    I might be wrong but your very correct about his defense people on here forget eubank got buzzed by spike o Sullivan multiple times during the fight with the left hook. He is very open to the punch and often resets his offense/approach after being tagged by the left

      Floyd Sr has a lot of old school knowledge that you can't find anywhere else.

      Nothing wrong with learning whatever you can from him while he's still around.

        Mayweather Sr is the biggest Turd in Training history. He's like ****** Cunter he just got lucky to be connected to one fighter who did well. Floyd Sr got Hatton killed by Pac. Floyd wasn't even showing up to the gym some days.

          I thought he trains himself as he said in his interview and presser the other day

            Yeah he tends to favour the Roy Jones Jr style of defence, which is only so effective... especially as he gets older.

              Only difference being roy had much greater reflexes and split second speed of punch.

                He does, but maybe there are things he wanted to work on for this fight with Mayweather sr. He has a trainer but Jr trains everyday by himself.

                    Straight from Bolivia? No wonder eubank jr goes berserk on the bag and pads that explains it all.

                      He wasn't trained by Sr. for his last fight - he just hung around the Mayweather gym and did a few rounds on the pads.
