    Easily more even than 5lbs. Oops, Sorry, I missed the time you wrote it. By now Groves has put on way way more than 5lbs

    Groves was so much bigger than Eubank a week or two ago. They need to introduce multiple weigh-ins the lead up to fights to stop this excessive weight cutting.

    I understand a lot of fighters do it, but it isn't really in the spirit the rules were meant for.

    It leads to dangerous situations, disparities in weight on fight night, severe dehydration, and when both guys are cutting a lot of weight and putting their body through all this stress you have to think to yourself "there's gotta be a better way".

    Looks pretty normal Groves to me calm and focused on the task ahead.

    Op sounds like he is desperate to make something out of nothing as if to appear as if he knows something.

    You're not doing Groves any favors when you compare him to David Price.

    Yeah, easily more than that. He will be well on his way to fight weight by now.

    GG looked like he'd just been dragged out of a concentration camp for Gingers.

    really?

    GGG is nearly always at 165 for his 30-day weigh-in

    most MWs are about 10 pounds heavier 30-days prior to official weigh in

    Got to admit I was shocked at how drawn he looked at the weigh in ...will find out tonight. I also agree that he seems to have a 'pretty vacant' look on his face all the time. .It's more pronounced than it used to be.
