Eubanks most definitely has ko power

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Put him in a ring with someone with power like Alvarez or GGG and he'll get wrecked.

As would most and I include Kahn in that

 

[McBain]

Er, Bizier doesn't look too up for this.

Brook will win this easy

About time brook got in the ring with someone decent!

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

As would most and I include Kahn in that

Yes, it's going to be glorious

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Yes, it's going to be glorious

Ha ha I can't wait I'l be watching that one live that's for sure!

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

The only slight worry in the back of my head is the ease Mayweather controlled Alvarez with his speed. If Khan fights intelligently and fights on the backfoot I'm genuinely worried he could get a decision

Blackwell taken off on a stretcher with oxygen, hope he's gonna be ok.

 

[McBain]

Absolute demolition job.

IBF rankings are a joke that guy should never of been a mandatory challenger

IBF rankings are a joke that guy should never of been a mandatory challenger

How is that guy a mandatory when Jo Jo Dan (who was also crap and Brook beat about the ring for 4 rounds) has beaten him twice!

 

[The_One]

because IBF rankings are a joke its the least respected belt out of the 3.

As brook said the wbc belt held by Garcia is the one to have

Which I can see Khan doing for about 5 rounds like he normally does then he gets tagged and starts pretending he isn't hurt which is hilarious

Jesus christ, the state of some of those ring girls

Need to tell Japan we found some more Minke whales.

Hope Blackwell makes a full and speedy recovery, not good at all

Nick Blackwell is in hospital after suffering a bleed on the brain following his British middleweight title defeat by Chris Eubank Jr in London on Saturday.

The referee stopped the fight in round 10 on the advice of the doctor, who said Blackwell was unable to continue because of swelling over his left eye.

The beaten champion was later taken from the ring on a stretcher.

Blackwell, 25, has been placed in an induced coma.

Wishing him well.

With hindsight he's probably lucky that he had that swelling over his eye, could have been even worse otherwise as there was no outward signs he was struggling (apart from the bloodied nose) even though he'd been eating uppercuts all night.

Fingers crossed he makes it through ok.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

At least in this day and age they get the boxer to the correct professionals within the "golden hour" unlike many in the 90's.

Hope he makes a full recovery

The Brook fight was a complete **** take. I'd hate to have paid to watch that in person!

The Eubank fight should have been stopped earlier, Blackwell was taking far too many clean punches, Eubank was landing uppercuts pretty much whenever he wanted. Sure, there was some fight still left in Blackwell but he wasn't making any inroads and was being hit all too often, it should have been stopped in the 8th at least. The difference in both boxers faces was telling.
