    Someone asked me what would be the worst fight I could think of stylistically and I said it would have to be Tyson vs Hughie. Tyson obviously wins but we might have the cure for insomnia with that one if it ever happened.

    I think BJS linking up with Ingle might just see Billy Joe see out the remainder of his 2 years in the game undefeated REGARDLESS of opponents. There was a time i thought Billy Joe was done, a wasted talent, overweight, disinterested with the sport. You see him train with Ingle, you see his performance out in Canada, im telling you, Billy Joe is here to shock the World and thats coming from a Eubank Fan. I truly believe he beats the best at 160lbs Canelo & GGG included.

    Your right there, that would be the stinker of all time. Hughie has to be the most unwatchable fighter in the game and I don't care for Tyson either.

    I actually found Hughie's effort to be worse than even the worst of Sergio Mora's fights and that is really saying something

    BJS faster and more accurate Groves would be able to do damage with his power but BJSs team will be fully aware of that so BJS on points unanimous but only by a couple of rounds

    Bull**** sparring stories. Billy Jane can’t knockout anybody. Everybody beats Groves in sparring so what under the bright lights when it matters he wins. Ask Eubank Jr.

    The only currencies Serge deals in are facts, logic, truth, and wisdom.

    Proof that BJS 2.0 is slicker than GG and he gave him nightmares in sparring.

    The Dark Lord Adam Booth:

    'Question: Is George Groves a tougher opponent for Chris Eubank Jr than Billy Joe Saunders was in 2014?

    Adam Booth: “Groves is more dangerous but less tricky. Billy Joe is not as easy to get to as George. Once George stops punching, he’s not difficult to get to, whereas Billy Joe is difficult to get to whether he’s punching or not punching.


    “For Eubank Jr, the Billy Joe Saunders loss doesn’t look so bad now because of what Billy Joe has gone on to do. Also, I’ve been around Billy Joe. I’ve seen him spar Groves and he gave Groves nightmares. I know what Billy Joe is about. Given Eubank’s lack of experience in the amateurs, he did well to make the Saunders fight as close as it was.”

    Proof that BJS 2.0 knocked out DeGale in sparring.


    ''Last weekend, a full four years after returning from the Beijing Games as a national hero, James DeGale laboured in a European supermiddleweight defence against an obscure Frenchman.

    Despite the luke warm opposition, ‘Chunky’ was hit far too easily and his face was banged up when he conducted his post-fight interview. The word is middleweight Billy Joe Saunders knocked him out in sparring recently.''

    --Frank a place where rabbits live

    Now Serge isn't just going by what Frank a place where rabbits live said there, oh no.. Serge has actually seen a video interview where BJS 2.0 all but admitted it happened, or at the very least admitted that he'd bashed him up and dropped him. He might not have actually uttered the words ''I knocked him out'' or ''I bashed him up and had him over'' but it was implied that he did.

    Groves beats him up. The weight difference is too much...much the same as it was last night. Billy joes a boxer so will obviously look better more competetive than eubank but he,d get the same treatment as Chris got. Roughed up and beat up.

    Billy joes getting played out of hand lemuiex and Monroe don't have a good win between them. Both beating up and stopped comfortable by golovkin. Decent wins for him tho. Billy joes decent but for all the talk of being competitive against golovkin and canelo...hes got about as much chance as eubank juniors got of beating them.

    Groves is massive , remember he has only ever been beaten by absolute elite. BJS has yet to show this.

    Groves by stoppage. That jab is like a right hand from most others.

    Slick orthodox counter puncher vs. slick southpaw counter puncher, nightmare match for both, one of them will have to take the initiative and play offense, and that man will be.... Groves, Saunders keeps him at bay with his jab, and counters the hell out of him with his jab and check right hook, turns him all night and UD's him close.

    A highly aggressive Groves is way too much for Saunders and levels him with a targeted body attack.
