Eubank Sr JEALOUS of Tyson-Jones

[coghaugen]

he fought mark breland at 17, wow he's lucky to even have a career after escaping the poisoner that early

Eubank also had a bareknuckle fight with Teddy Atlas at 16 (seriously!), no egg weights slipped in anywhere

so that's where the scar really came from, interesting

Atlas actually cowardly bit Eubank's ear when he couldn't hurt him.

I read this in his accent

It was suicide fighting Calzaghe at that time. Hardest puncher I've ever seen in person (before hand kept breaking).


'Eubank is no good to me because he has now lost twice.'
- RJJ 9/95

It’s funny, people don’t realise Calzaghe was considered a really big puncher before all his hand problems.

Even Chris Eubank said when he got dropped in the first round that was the hardest he had ever been hit

Although, if he didn’t have those hand problems maybe he wouldn’t have developed that huge work rate style, Which was really successful for him. But to be fair he also had very good work rate before his hands were shot.

Joe was a ****er in mid-90s, and I mean a ****er - you heard the shots loud and guys would be taken clean off feet.

One big sweeping southpaw left hook would poleaxe guys from a young Calzaghe
