Robert Eugene-1 Overall Rating
Nationality-Belgium
b.
d.
Career, 1946-60
BoxRec. 037142
Record 10 wins / 42 losses / 4 draws / 5 KO
Eugene fought and lost for the Belgium HW Title in 1948 very early in his career. Later in 1952 he lost another chance at the Belium title. Then in 1954 he defeated a Piet Wilde in the 1st round on a KO for the Belgium HW Title. He defended that title twice in 1955 and 56 against an Al Bernard both times. During that period he lost 2 fights to Franco Cavicchi and once each to Brian London and Dick Richardson. In July 1956 he lost the Belgium title to Alain Cherville. That loss was part of a 0-16-1 string that marked the end of his career. Part of those 16 losses included another one to Cavicchi, one to a Willi Hopner(45-8-3) and then to Zech which was his 2nd to last fight of his career.

In this replay I set Zech to "Beginning" stage and Eugene I set a "End" stage of his career. In real life Zech KO'd Eugene in the 1st round. I didn't know because of the KO in boxrec if this was a 4 or 6 round scheduled fight, but I set it for 4 rounds. Didn't matter much as I couldn't believe it when Zech KO'd him at 1:25 of the 1st round!
Next fight 1960-03-05 against Bobby Warmbrunn again...
