    He got up instantly after the fight had ended. That means he could've got up, he quit

    All the Swindon haters were ****ing bricks when Cox had Groves backed against the ropes and was unloading.

    Groves is by far the best fighter EUbank will have faced. Groves is a skilled technical boxer puncher who is also a big super middleweight. EUbank watch what you ask for as you just might get it. Forget sparring you get the real George Groves on fight nights. I think he has the superior boxing IQ to EUbank Jr. They have sparred a lot yes and think about it Groves chose to be in the same side of the draw as EUbank which should tell something.

    Body shots are a bit of a sore subject for GG and GGG.

    Saunders is technically much better than Groves. He is also a much more difficult target to hit, albeit both run out of steam in fights.

    CEJ is improving quickly. Looking forward to it!

    Groves is pulling out this tournament. He was shook! He couldn't bring himself to look at Jnr.

    Genuinely...he will pull out. I can tell.

    Nonsense. He's a tough kid. If he could have got up he would have done. Typical armchair warrior you sound like.

    Both very talented fighters in their own way. Groves is more calculated, whereas Jr is more instinctive as a fighter, so it will be intriguing.

    We will finally found out just how good Eubank is. I just hope for the best man to win without any controversy.

    People keep making excuses when Eubank wins. Apparently Yildirim was **** now, even though pre-fight all the Eubank-haters were hyping his size and saying Eubank won't be able to hurt him.

    Cox on paper was just as bad, probably even worse than Yildirim. No names on his record at all, Periban the best win on either's record. He was a LMW whereas Yildirim fought at LHW previously. Cox looked terrible in his last fight on the Brook-Spence undercard.

    People need to be objective and admit that Eubank beating Yildirim was stunning. Groves for a few rounds was trading blow for blow against Cox and in round 2 was clearly hurt as he backed up.
