Glad he holds his defeat against Thompson ( 2nd) so important in winning the hearts of the people. I was there that night. I went to see him beaten. As did a lot of people. He used to wind folk up with his nonsense. But we left huge fans of his. I remember one segment in particular. Thompson had hammered him. Busted him up and caught Chris with another huge shot. Eubank rocked back,almost doubled over,we thought that’s it,he’s had enough. Then as Thompson came in,Eubank sprung up and landed a vicious uppercut. Honestly it changed right there. Hairs on end moment. You saw the entirety of his character right then. Turned out to be his last fight. Glad I was there to witness the man.
