Comments Thread For: George Groves-Martin Murray in Play For The Summer

[BodiesInFlight]

I don't think he's at all boring, but I'm done with him because he consistently manages to wrangle failure from the jaws of success. Frustrating because he seems to have what it takes to succeed.

Groves may be declining a bit but this fight should give us an idea of where he's at. If the aggression is there and doesn't fade, he may have gotten himself together. If Murray gets the better of him, he's done.

I don't find him boring (although he isn't the most exciting fighter), but he does frustrate the everlasting shit out of me in every fight. He had good moments against Sturm, Martinez, Golovkin and Abraham, but every time managed to let the fight slip away from him by taking his foot off the gas.

Groves, at least, always has a finisher's mindset. If he has someone hurt, he'll proper jump on them and not give a shit.

It's not that he is overly boring i just find him middle of the road. He doesn't do anything bad but i just don't have a desire to watch anymore. No good or bad will towards him. He's just kinda "meh". If anything i think he has overachieved.

Groves could soon end up like that too but i quite enjoyed his last fight against that italian, i still see some big nights for him but he has definitely lost something after the froch fights.

I actually really like this matchup.
