proud irishman talking here,but im must say that Chris Eubank was a far superior boxer to Steve Collins. Take the mind game stuff away and collins was just a good fighter. Eubank was great,and so was Nigel Benn. Chris was slightly passed his sell by date ,as was benn when they both fought collins. Eubank or Benn,of 90 or 91, would have beaten collins anytime.
@donalb401 Why?? Because i actually called it like it is,instead of saying Collins was better simply cause hes irish? I like Collins,even met him once. Fact remains,he beat both Benn and Eubank when they were both on the way out. Watch Benn v Eubank 1st fight, from 1990. Collins wouldnt have been able to handle either of them
@TwelveInchDick your dead right when Eubank and Benn were fighting each other Collins was too busy fighting the best America had to offer , like Mike Mc Callum or if you will the man they called the body snatcher who was ducked for over ten years by the best from middle to light heavy you my light headed friend should take up watching tennis because you have no idea about the fight game , and before you reply i have been an MMA fighter so i am qualified to comment
@rudatheboy Have to agree Mike McCallum was bad news to alot of guys! Still Eubank, Benn, Collins most of them fought eachother unlike the pussies of today Chavez Jr, Pacquiao, Mayweather etc.
@rudatheboy Eubank and Benn were controlled, precise boxers... which is all well and good, it won them a lot of fights. The problem is when you have somebody who is essentially a lunatic in the ring you lose your composure. Collins dictated fights by always being the aggressor, and having one of the best chins in the business. his tenacity and determination were unmatched. I only wish as a boxing fan Roy Jones Jr had fought him.. it would have been like Gatti vs Ward X10.
I'd completely forgotten that Collins was actually a middleweight champ going in to his challenge here,he won it I believe from Chris Pyatt another talented fighter who was at his best however as a light middle
roy jones jr lost to tarver twice, that dosent mean tarver is better, styles make fights, eubank is more of a legend than collins and acconplished alot more in his career.
you clueless pricks, watson fcuking schooled and outclassed eubank for 10 rounds before eubank made a last ditch attempt to win the fight, we all know what happened in the end..
Which elite boxer has eubank beaten, name just one?
eubank was a great boxer and was involved in many great battles over the years and when you are involved in hard fights it takes its toll on anybody thats why you see a lot of fighters these days having 50 fights in their careers mostly against average fightrs which means they can go on for longer take calzaghe for example his only four hard fights werre his last four the likes of nigel benn went all over the world and fought the best.
what a night that was.Atmosphere was unbelievable.Eubank underestimated what he was taking on when he agreed to this fight one of most intense places i have ever been other than kop end against against chelsea semi final 05. Thanks
collins beat ben and eubank on the turn, name a decent fight he was ever in? benn had loads, wot about eubank watson, or the 2 thompson fights? classics. collins?? i said collins??????
i understand eubank now. At the time i thought he was scared. But i realise that he was scared he'd hurt a man again. After the watson fight you could tell he was always more cautious. Eubank i think was generally underated. I mean look calzaghe now the guy that beat him has been inmense since!
Collins camp basically played on what Eubank did to Watson and that's a bit sick!! they say that Collins is hypnotizes to ealk through pain and even if hurt will carry on.....Eubank said he wanted to pull out of the fight up until it started. That's a bit sick to do to someone after they have put someone in a vegatative state.
Righto...then why didn't he win both fights on points? You Eubank fans are pathetic. Maybe Eubank should have won both fights if it was judged urely on talent. But talent means nothing if you can't do the job. Collins completely out boxed and outfoxed him. Must be said to realise that it true and its never going to change. hahahaha
Of course everyone konws that Collins fought Benn when his heart wasn't in it was on the decline (Benn was never the same after what happened to McClellan). Benn would have murdered him in his prime
Haha!!! You haven't a clue about boxing! I heard the same after Collins beat Eubank, "he wasn't the same fighter after Watson", even though he had x amounts of defences til he eventually lost to Collins. Benn was a great fighter and lost nothing in defeat to Steve Collins but it's embarrassing hearing his fans harp on about "if he was in his prime" nonsense. It seems like everytime a british boxer loses there's always an excuse from the fans....not the boxers themselves(apart from Eubank)
Heart wasn't in it? Don't forget Benn was challenging Collins for the title, not being forced to defend it. Give me a break. We're not talking about a 'lucky' win (rarely such a thing anyway) We are talking two (four if you include the Eubank fights- and I will because both sets of fans suffer the same delusions) comprehensive defeats without loss. Like I said, give me a break you either have no knowledge of boxing or are just pathetically deluded- I suggest both
And I would just like to clarify that I am not denegrating either Benn or Eubank (although he is a complete tosser)- They were terrific fighters and champions-I am denegrating their idiot fans who can't admit when their man was bested.
Fucking Eubank what a legend, man was class.
