    groves was/is at his peak when he beat eubank and hes much bigger and a good boxer, bjs is a very slick good southpaw and eubank was improving.
    we didnt see any olympic gold medalist qualities in the fights vs truax

    De Gale couldn`t have boxed the way Groves did against Eubank even in his prime and he wouldn`t have pushed Froch the way a green Groves did, different level.

    Eubank hasn't improved that's my point.

    Truax has better boxing ability than Junior. Eubank is a good fighter for people who want to trade, Degale has never really traded shots in a war. He picks his shots and moves.

    You seem to have a very low opinion of Degale considering he was a knockdown away from beating Jack. Where as Groves was soundly beaten by Jack, and this is the Groves that as you say is peaking.

    CBJ, Degale would not deal with the pressure anymore

    Jack can be caught a lot and Degale`s performance against him is controversial as a lot of Americans feel he was beat soundly by Jack, Adonis Stevens would destroy Degale the same way he destroyed Bellew.

    This is tough. DeGale has fallen off HARD so I could definitely see Eubank being able to take him at this stage despite how many flaws Jr has. I'm still picking DeGale.

    This fight can cement the end of his career.

    Mate he sits on the ropes like a lazy ******* every fight, that's why Jnr has a massive chance at this stage

    I wasn't talking about workrate. What good is throwing 5 and 6 punch combos if you're hitting thin air, just like the Groves fight.

    CEJ will lose because he's going in with a boxer not a brawler.

    I would normally agree, but the last two against Truax have shown he's ready for retirement, he knows it to that's why he's cashing in with a domestic dust up
