A 27 year old Abraham would've taken Eubank's head off but he lost his power 10 years ago and never had the speed to trouble him even in his prime.

Not really sure how he's ranked 5th but it shows how bad the division has become over the last few years.

Callum Smith to the rescue, hopefully.

Nothing new from Eubank. Great hand speed but the guy can't punch for ****. Hopefully his bottle doesn't go and he actually takes part in this super series thing because Groves or Smith will take his head off - fully expect that he'll bottle it and pull out if he had to face either though.

It's hard to believe he's actually a belt holder. It's not just the power that's lacking, it's technique when throwing punches, head and foot movement, combinations... he literally has nothing in his locker other than speed.

8 years ago the Super 6 had Ward, a prime Abraham, Kessler, Froch, Taylor and Dirrell. All 6 of those beat Eubank and 4 of them knock him out.

Now I know you taking the ****! He has zero power, speed yes, shots look good as well but they have zero effect.

By zero power do you mean Eubank is not the biggest 168 puncher of all time? Eubank clearly punches pretty hard, or Abraham wouldn't have had his gloves covering his head all night and been forced back as much.

Eubank's improved every fight and looks like he'd be a handful for anyone.

His movement has improved and he has an incredible engine. He looks like he could go 24 rounds.

Who has he knocked out? Not stopped but knocked out sparko ? Have you ever seen Abraham fight? That's what he does, he looked at Eubank after a flurry of punches and went is that it ?

Prople just hating on eubank for sake of it

He doesnt have a massive one hit ko punch but he fires hard shots in quick succession

His punching and attacks are relentless thats why he has os many tkos

Either towel comes in or refhas stopped fights because of damage beung taken

Look at blackwell and quinlan fights

He didnt ko them but wasdoing seeious damage to them

If you think eubanks doesnt hit hard your an idiot tbh

Groves wont stand up to eubanks relentless attacks only callum is a danger to eubanks

Eubank has a decent enough record and that's probably a better measure of his abilities.

Yeah I've watched Abraham (who hasnt) fight and he's always looked very good, but im not sure what Abraham shrugging his shoulders proves. Eubank dealt with Abraham no problem.
I think we can cut him some slack for not KOing Abraham.
