Smith vs Eubank

Post by marciano1952 »

Dumb strategy from Eubank….letting smith march Forward with only the occasional use of the Jab and trying some flashy power shot here and there

Not much to separate in the first few rounds but it appeared Clear to me Smith was gonna take over down the stretch…..never though he would practically stop Eubank on 1 combo…..Props to him on continuing his very solid win streak

Eubank was trying to imitate Roy Jones out there, but is not Roy Jones Dangerous in there.

When Liam caught him in the 4th round, Eubank jumped up like a cartoon character after getting hit. That was an embarrassing showing by Eubank yesterday.

Eubank isn’t prime Roy Jones so he shouldn’t be trying to fight like him. Just like when Roy Jones wasn’t prime Roy Jones anymore, that style didn’t even work for him.

Hopefully no rematch, Eubank had one in the contract and seems to be going towards using it….HATE rematch clauses
