Groves v Eubank official poll

So many folk hope this is right lol.
There's one thing I like from him and that's how in his last fight he was throwing punches in combinations which is what got the KO as appose to the relentless uppercut thing he always did he seems to be learning on the job.

 

He doesn't have a chin to do it and stamina to do it, so no chance for him in this fight.

 

2 years?

Go back 2 months and the majority of posts were hardly positive.

Half the people who are picking him to win are only doing so as to claim after the fact that Groves is a bum so they don't have to give Jr credit.

You basically said Groves is overrated but will still beat Jr easily ffs, neither will get any credit regardless of the outcome I suppose?

 

Groves is 29 and Eubank is 28 you Muppet.

 

Lol probably not the same in terms of boxing years.

 

I'f Groves keeps mobile and makes it difficult for Eubank to get near , utilises that excellent jab of his to win rounds he will win the fight. If he gets involved in a tear up with his chin out, he could well loose, it's is the only way I see him really loosing. He may try and approach the fight in a similar way to his fight with Degale.

 

I know this might sound mad but I'd invite Eubank in. His feet are horrific at times and when he starts throwing he really squares up and is so open if he gets tagged he will go down. Even with a good solid jab that groves possesses.

 

Groves hasn't just been mixing it with the highest level, for the most part he's been dominating it.
He beat Degale, should have been given the decision against Jack and was schooling Froch both times before the KO.

If young Christopher beats this guy he should be considered P4P, Jr is only a middleweight fighting monsters in the WBSS. If he could win it, that would be legendary. He even traveled in the tournament, something other fighters have been criticized for not doing in the super 6.

 

I was siding with Groves until I saw their latest two fights.

Groves looked old and deteriorated in beating a domestic level operator in Cox.

Whilst Eubank Jr detonated bombs all over a world level contender in his fight.

When you see a fighter dead at the weight, visibly slowed down and vulnerable like Groves you know that if Cox gets to him then CEJ gets to him. Different CEJ is far faster and more accurate than Cox.

I think this could be an early to mid round KO win for Eubank Jr. Either CEJ stops him early or he is more cautious and he takes Groves out when he gasses through volume.

 

Groves looks a bit shopworn of late and Eubank looks stronger at S\M .could be interesting.
