Yeah but when he had ppl hurt or in trouble he coulndt get himself to go at them and finished he said so himself in a interwiew i read some years ago. He said that he had fear in the back of his head all the time, but yeah those cruiserweight wars were burtal but still he was never the same after that fight(what was the guys name? can remember)

Haha Eubank was a legend with a great chin. if it wasnt for his great chin joe would have banged him out in that fight some of the punches joe landed where brutal. Plus Eubank landed his own that just shows how good joes chin is.

Yeh, Joe proved in that fight he had a good chin. And yes it was Carl Thompson, he was never much of a CW on world level but a really good fighter and Eubank had a massive disadvantage in size and strength. Calzaghes a good fighter, Kesslers a good fighter, i say they just get it on in September and we find out whos the best

calzaghe destroyed eubank. And it wasnt like eubank was a bad fighter, there were times when he was talked about as being a p4p best fight, and calzaghe wipped the floor with him. did you watch the fight.

I did, and i agree Calzaghe took Eubank to school. Eubank caught Calzaghe late with a few shots, but Joe took them pretty well.

Eubank wasnt far from his prime, and was still one of the top SMWs in the world. Calzaghe is better than prime Eubank anyway, Eubank was tailormade for Calzaghe and Joe would outbox him easily.
