Edwin "La Bomba" Rodriguez vs George "The Saint" Groves

Rodriguez would be too much for Groves i feel, although if Groves landed I think Rodriguez would have a few tricky moments

 

That's the fella that sent me to sleep last week on Martinez undercard?.

 

I recall Rodriguez struggling a bit with Pryor Jr. and being so unimpressed with him in that fight...very sloppy performance if I remember it right, I haven't watched a fight of him since then so can't comment with certainty on how Groves would do against him, but I'd back Groves if Rodriguez hasn't shown much improvement since then. I'll have to track down some his recent fights.

 

Guess I won't track down his recent fights atsch

 

Rodriguez was outboxes by the small but well-timed Will Rosinsky. Rosinsky won that fight but got robbed.

 

I was shattered but having that nickname i expected so much more...

 

Groves on points.

 

I feel Groves is still trying to refine his style somewhat, i believe this fight would be to soon and he would be on the wrong end of a decision.

 

Rodriguez would have a little too much sauce for Groves right now. His footwork is good, he pivots well and i think he would give George a lot of problems. I don't think Groves boxes that well on the front foot. He tries to ambush guys and i don't think he would be able to do that with Rodriguez.
