    Got to admit Junior could upset me on Saturday...

    I've put money on a GG stoppage and then some more on an accumulator including a Groves win.

    I've been rewatching a few of their last fights and cannot see Junior win. The guy is in danger of Furyesque self-mutilation the way he loads and swings and loses his footing. Good talker, Junior. But, then, he could knock Groves out with one of those wild hooks...

    £280 win on a 5 way accumulator, 3 football matches won, just need Barcelona to win away to Eibar (will be livid if this one fails!) and Groves KO. I too admit Junior could 'disappoint' me, but the odds seemed too good considering he hasn't been proven at all at this level or weight thus far.

    Mostly just looking forward to a great and intriguing match up, and if my bet comes in then even better!

    I only bet on boxing when I feel the bookies have badly priced a certainty. Whilst I'm pretty confident Eubank will staunch Groves, it's a 50/50 on paper so not gonn bet here. I'd like to enjoy this fight without having a vested interest in the outcome.

    You should only be allowed to have an opinion if you have had a decent bet on the fight. Otherwise, it's all talk and no action.

    It's a bold move imho and I can only respect it. So much better than just chatting. May the better man win in style.

    Barca drew last match 0-0 and will be resting players ahead of big CL match on Tuesday. Big risk to include that just to up the bet by a few quid.
