Yea I know this is boxing but at the end of the day it's all FIGHTING. With the card coming up this weekend taking place in the UK I feel like this is relevant. Powerful words for Eubank Sr. Really paints a picture of the dark side of fighting. Where absolute Chads go to discover glory as the Reaper sits ringside. I hespect of heem.
 
Fighting's a mug's game

As big Chris would say.

I don't get why parents still push their athletic kids into fighting sports Vs soccer, basketball etc.

You're pushing your kids into the hurt game instead of team sports where you get paid to play a game
 
I like Eubank SR, great fighter and tough SOB without question, but that's not what fighting is about at all, not to me. I would rather watch a fighter with great defense and who takes very little damage over one with no defense who can take plenty.
 
OK.

MMA fans are unable to relate to a personality like Eubanks because our fans are only use to dim-witted brutes posting lame trash talk on social media and stealing WWE type gimmicks and doing them worst than the original.

I think you missed the point brother. He's not saying the point of fighting is to take a beating in every fight. The point is to hit and not get hit BUT a real fighter must know and demonstrate that he can take a beating and still be there after. That's the glory of a true champion.
 
Never a fan of eubank snr (as nigel benn is my favourite fighter) but he is one of the only fighters ever to talk truthfully about the fight game. I’ll always respect him for that

Eubank vs Nigel Benn is one of the best boxing rivalries ever. Truly epic story.

You might wanna replay the video then, because that's exactly what he says it's all about, and that was him, a tough bastard with a shitload of heart and granite chin who could take it, he was an intelligent slugger, but a slugger none the less.
