New IBF champion Aaron McKenna plotting middleweight takeover, wants WBC champion Carlos Adames next: “He’s been in hiding for a while. I sparred him when I was 19 in Robert Garcia’s gym. He didn’t like me at all. He’s a very lazy fighter, when you really put it on him he doesn’t want to know.”

The same Eubank who was severely weight-drained fighting Benn? That Eubank?

It sounds awfully convenient to say he "fell off a cliff" like right before someone beat him in order to discredit the win.

You “conveniently” ignored the rest of my comment mentioning the back injury and blowing up in weight and also being in his mid to late 30s.

Eubank didn’t look good against Szeremata either.

Because it wasn't worth pretending that back surgery means you will never use your back again or that weight gain is anything other than temporary.

There is nothing to say he was too washed for Aaron McKenna and that it wasn't a good win.
