Chris Eubank just copied others, when he was at the Jerome gym in New York, but then would modify certain moves to his own liking.

Eubank never really had a trainer, from February 1983 to July 1998.

(Eubank also blended martial arts into his boxing style)

Many people said he was, until the first Benn fight (but he'd never been tested!). And many people said he was after the second Watson fight (but he'd just been battered for eight of 11 rounds!).

He was always beatable because you could always out-work him easily, he simply did not have stamina and was often weight-drained to the limits to make weight.
