    Eubank was a helluva lot better than Miranda.

    Assuming a neutral location serves as the venue... I'd probably take Eubank by close decision. Arthur's fight-altering power wouldn't be as much of an issue here as in other fights, and Eubank was closer to a complete fighter at 160/pre-Watson tragedy.

    I'd have to agree. Especially when you consider Abraham often sits around looking for openings to land bombs and gives rounds away in the process. The guys who were able to put a lot of hurt on Eubank put a lot of pressure on him.

    I don't think Abraham would do enough against the southpaw Eubank and loses a close but clear decision.

    So not in Germany, where Rocky was robbed against Eubank. :crafty:
    Eubank had no idea what to do with Rocky´s high guard, and I think he´d have the same trouble with Abraham.

    Eubank easy. He had an iron chin, and if Smurf can't hurt him, he's not going to win.

    Exactly...

    Eubank (pre Watson II) was a hell of a fighter, but his most obvious and important attribute was a granite hard chin. Abraham hits hard, but not hard enough to stop Eubanks, and if he can't stop him, he loses by decision.
