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.
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.
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
