    He certainly did a lot to promote boxing.

    He caused such extreme reaction that people were coming to see him in the hope that the opposition punched his lights out. As a marketing ploy it was sheer genius.

    Prince Naseem was another heavily marketed individual, but minus Eubank's talent - completely over-hyped.

    But it certainly brought a bit of colour into the sport. Not much to get excited about nowadays

    A bit harsh on Naz there. He achieved more than Eubank, 2 weight world champion, unifying his division.

    But he was a horrible cunt and was great to see Barrera beat him silly.

    No just twice you doofus. Eubank won the 1st fight and the second was a draw.
