    The knockdowns seem to have been somewhat ignored, I think the second was a definite knockdown, the first debatable.

    It should have been even wider on the cards, Jr was lucky.

    George jab is such a potent weapon he jabbed his own shoulder off

    In summary - Groves was the least poor of the 2.

    Yeah the first one where Groves hit Eubank with a short shot on the inside and Eubanks knee touched the canvas could be debatable. The second KD was clear though, Groves hit him square on the jaw with a right hand and Eubank went down. I have no idea how that wasn't a knockdown.

    Yes you have, I said for weeks I couldn't believe the bookies had Jr favourite, it's the highlight reels and snapchats and people buy in to it.

    Jr is one dimensional, Jr was exposed tonight, he can't box, his footwork is poor, he should just move back to 160 and pick his opponents very carefully and milk the casuals.

    As for Sr saying he wants to fight the winner, I bet he does, somebody needs to pay his dry cleaning bill so Jr needs to get back fighting.

    Eubank lost 9-3 and could have had two knockdowns ruled against him.
    A poor performance.
    Exposed imo.

    Groves is decent. At least he has a clue about what he is trying to execute in the ring and he has a jab.

    Both men have heart and both fight a little chippy.

    Nas basically agreeing with my conclusion. Groves was less **** than Eubank. GGG should step up after the Canelo fight, he certainly beats these two.

    I think both where knockdowns.

    I hope Groves' shoulder injury is not serious and does not put the final in danger.

    Yeah, it should have been a lot wider, I am going as far to say Jr was exposed tonight, he just can't box.

    No wonder Sr lost that pen when it was time to fight Golovkin, Golovkin would have ended his career.

    Naz being harsh. Groves is decent, not close to the level Froch was but then Froch was elite.
