    the only two that have come back on and taken their medicine it seems are Cuthroat and Len. The rest have strangely taken a sabbatical .... funny that ?!

    The list is endless Eubank Snr is the gift that keeps on giving. The reality is if you out his son in the ABAs he wouldn't come close to winning as his technical fundamentals are so poor.

    to be fair, I do think he has a helluva chin. He moved up in weight and took some very big clean shots from Groves. Groves right hand is as good as anyones at SMW in terms of power. Eubank was there to be and Groves did land some bombs on him You can have a go at Eubank for terrible footwork, having no jab, no ring IQ but he does have an elite level chin IMO.

    I think Eubanks tactics from now on is to use his very good chin to break the hands of his opposition... actually they would still have the feet to negate him for the rest of the fight .... nevermind !

    He did take the shots tho to be fair twenty mate, not many could have taken the clean shots that Groves landed on him. Put it this way had Groves been hit with those clean shots Im not sure he could have taken them? purely speculative obv. I have given Eubank plenty of stick on here but he does have heart and a great chin to be fair.

    Can’t disagree bud. His chin is solid and he never gives up so his heart can’t be disputed. I would definitely fancy Eubank to take a harder shot on the sweet spot than Groves. That said, Groves doesn’t offer his chin up on a platter like Eubank.

    Its not a compliment though ! a great chin should never be a fighters best quality, doesnt lead to a lasting career and it means that his fundamentals aint good enough as top fighters shouldnt get their chin checked that often during fights. A good chin is something to fall back on not something that you should be looking to use as an asset!!

    Let's be honest some people m8ght think were being hard on Eubank as he was tough and showed heart v Groves but if it was 99% of other Fighters like Martin Murray v Groves we would be doing so but reason we don't is because of the nonsense that his camp out the mouths of Team Eubank time and time again.
