    Who wins?

    Eubank was more talented, but Minter was a better technician.

    X sees I'm online and starts loading MM with Brit matchups...:D

    I think Minter wins this. I envisage him doing the job Watson did in their first fight, in almost the same way. Controlled distance, keeping Eubanks out of harm's way and racking up rounds. Not sure, though. Eubanks is a tough one to work out. He won a few fights he should have lost.

    Lmao! Nah, I'm just trying my best to think of matchups we've never done before

    We haven't done a lot of Minter matchups at all.

    And yes, I too would favor Minter to outbox Chritthhhhhh.

    Minter is a very underrated gadge. He's largely remembered for Hagler fucking him up, but that was an absolute prime Hagler in the perfect style matchup for him. Couldn't have picked a better fighter for him to showcase his skillset.

    Minter could fight. He was very good. He has gotten lost in British boxing history, unfairly imo.

    I'd pick Mintor, Sibson and Finnegan over Eubank.
