Groves vs Eubanks.. Official pick em!

Eubank got schooled end of discussion

 

Same pal. Usually when i have a bet on I check the cashout value repeatedly. Tonight i didn't even pick my phone up until the fight was over. Printing money !

 

I was wrong.Groves old manned him.Not by age,but expeireance

 

Fantastic from Groves, total domination.

Eubank Jr is the prime example of having a top level boxer as a father. The moneys there, the contacts are there, the trainers are there, the promotions there, but at the end of the day, boxing is imo, as much natural as it is trained. You may well get to a certain level, but it’s the truly naturally skilled who reach the top. When you fight them, you get found out.

I think Conor Benn will be the same. I wish the kid well, but despite the hype, I genuinely don’t see him getting anywhere near the success level of his old man. Domestic level at best.

 

He is a level below so I doubt he will fair much better.

 

I felt Groves had a slight edge, but I did not expect him to totally out class him!!! Groves was a 2-1 underdog!

 

Fair play to Groves, I thought Eubank would get to him late on in the fight.

Jnr not helped himself, done a lot of talking, a lot of hype and not backed it up. Time to make drastic changes with his training set up. A realisation and attitude change is required drastically. He has talent that needs to be nurtured properly.

Nice also for Groves to get a big win (well big in the public eye). He is a guy who has experienced a lot in boxing, good and bad.

 

Eubank did not box at all last night, swinging for the fences the whole fight. The stamina and chin is there though for sure.

Groves did well but it was too easy for him, in fact I was disappointed Groves didn't go for the KO he had so many chances because of how sloppy Eubank was.

The fight overall left me a little disappointed about how one sided it was and especially after Okolie Vs Chamberlain it's gonna take a lot more for me to get psyched up for a boxing fight now.

 

Groves was just too skilful for a guy with limited boxing ability that was the key difference. Ones world class the other is a hype job.

 

Nice 1 mate cheers

 

I think Groves has been superb throughout the buildup and the fight itself. He made Eubank look silly by being passive, whether it was mind games or not he came across as the cooler customer. Then in the fight he maintained his game plan and out classed Jr. So glad he pulled it off. George has been a bit of a tool in the past but this last year the man has been impressive.

I dont write off Eubank, he could still be a force. Naz was just being daft really, just focusing on the negative like that. It is possible for Chris to rebuild if he changes his mindset a bit. if he doesn't then he is deluding himself. I dont actually mind him as a character in boxing, you need that arrogant type that annoys people, but if he cant back it up he looks a bit stupid.

 

Scorecards were a disgrace. There were also three knockdowns, round 2, 7 and 10, which the ref ignored.

So the scores should have actually been 120-105. A total schooling.

 

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr was another example.
