    The bookies seem to be on Jr's side as well (slightly).
    Though I expect Groves to beat him non the less.

    What do you think of Froch's comments here. In my opinion he says he doesn't mind Groves anymore but I don't believe him. He hasn't given him much credit at all. Groves has the power to hurt anyone at Super middle and probably light heavy. But Froch is saying he can't hurt a pea head middle weight??

    Mission impossible? Probably one of the daftest things I’ve ever read. He quite clearly still can’t stand Groves.

    Jr to win late ko

    Groves is on the slide, he will have some success early on for sure and may even drop jr

    Because I dislike Senior I would love Groves to win and perhaps his size coupled with long range boxing could make that happen ? If Jnr is able to make it a dog fight from the get go and close the distance I think he could stop George.

    I'm flipping and flop as everyday goes by about the winner of this fight. either SD for groves or Late stoppage in a great fight for Eubank.

    Most knows my views of this fight.

    It will probably be evens by the early rounds. JR will have more success from round 5-6, overwhelmed groves and gets a stoppage about 8-10 rounds.

    Groves by UD or late TKO, Saint George is by far the best boxer Eubank has shared a ring with since BJS, probably better, while CEJ has improved, its against guys that play to his strengths, pressure fighters he can tee off on as they plod forward. Groves isn't going to fight his fight, he'll force CEJ into the role of pressure fighter and unlike the other guys he launches his flurries against Groves is an excellent counter puncher, with great timing, and will be catching him clean regularly, hopefully one of those counters knocks this smug c*** out cold.

    I dreamt Groves knocked him out in round 2 and Snr was crying at ringside.

    Groves wins this for me. He is the bigger guy with a very decent jab. Eubank has the speed but not the power. When Eubank has stepped up against BJS then he got found out.
    I think after this fight he needs to get rid of his dad and get a decent trainer . Only then, he might have a chance of winning a World title.

    I think all those punches that Groves landed on his melon in their first encounter have scrambled his brains just a touch.

    I think groves will win by ko in about the 6th round, fairly easily, probably with a body shot.
    That’s if Eubank doesn’t pull out.

    well groves is alot bigger than saunders, so i expect him to be able to take a good whack, jr doesnt hit like froch, but also groves isnt as defensively slick as billy.
