Chris Eubank had a big heart, his chin was abnormally good which meant he had the ability to soak up knockout punches and fire straight back, but also meant he took a lot of punishment - especially in the first Benn, Calzaghe and first Thompson fights. In the second Watson fight his adrenalin stopped running after six rounds and Watson's strength was abnormal that night, so Eubank had to go through the pain barriers but would of rather been carried out than quit.
Actually, maybe it was more stubborness/craving acceptance with Eubank.
The states he was left in after the first Benn, second Watson and first Thompson fights were dreadful.
Nobody thought they'd see anybody stand up to Benn's bombs. Man.
