My first offering is this intriguing snippet from Mayweather’s uncle !!


:::

Trainer Jeff Mayweather recently stated that he feared for his life and named Bill Haney, owner of the Hit Factory gym in Las Vegas, Nevada as the primary reason why. These outlandish comments came via blog on BraggingRightsCorner.com

Nobody even cares. Tyson Fury is the only one we as the public care about at the moment.

You youngsters don't realise how big Chris Eubank vs Nigel Benn was back then. That was a massive fight. Even ITV had a special 1 hour programme with them head to head before the fight. That was prime time Saturday night ITV. That's how big that fight was.

Those were the days ..

Eubank, Benn , Watson and Steve Collins


I recall Steve Collins convincing Eubank that he’d been hypnotised into not feeling pain ..



We also had my personal favourite Sugar Ray Leonard fighting Hearns , Duran and Hagler all before the age of 25 !!

Now we have charlatans like Crawford claiming to be the best ever.. despite getting to the age of 35 before even testing himself

Yeah we used to get World class sport on terrestrial television in those days. Champions league football and World class boxing.

We still would if people refused to pay for PPV like I do. They'd have no choice but to show it for free if people refused to pay.

Even Better
[Eubank, 33, dropped Smith in the fourth round,
the same round in which the
Liverpudlian beat him in their first
fight back in January.]

[Chris Eubank Jr dominates Liam Smith
with two knockdowns to
win middleweight rematch]

Liam Smith says he had to cut 42lbs for the Chris Eubank Jr rematch and believes this had a big impact on his performance:
