Comments Thread For: Eubank-Abraham Winner Will Join World Boxing Super Series

[REMOVE SHARK 55]

Based on what?

Not being a tw4t, genuine question.

You seem to be in the minority regarding Eubank. If you can't see what everyone else sees then I don't know for you mate. He's fresh, he'll outbox Callum as he's very under rated. He'll walk through Groves that got his jaw broken by Chudinov.

Why will Eubank get exposed?. I think you're just hating on him.

Eubank will struggle with Smith and Groves.

I just can't see you you reasoning behind Eubanks outboxing Smith or Groves, Eubanks is not a highly skilled boxer or a puncher. He relies on output and physicality.

Hating on him? Please, I think you need to grow up mate.
I love his dad and thought he looked a decent prospect in the beginning until it became apparent he doesn't have the power to carry off that style at world level.
He lacks fundamentals, not a great jab, footwork and balance need work and lunges in when he's not in range.
Neither one thing nor the other for me. Not slick enough to hit and not be hit or enough of a puncher to continue to get away with sitting in the pocket and trading like he does.

I concede he has a fan friendly style that looks good to a casual, but those combinations, which he does put together with class, ultimately flatter to deceive without more power in them.
He can load up and land 5 or 6 consecutive clean shots and only slightly wobble mid level fighters who don't have the reputation of a granite chin. He won't get away with that at top level and there's no way he's walking right through groves, how can you back that up opinion, who have you seen eubank walk down and do though to back that up?

Didn't eubank have to land about 28 thousand punches to stop chudinovs ****ter brother?

Eubank will struggle with Smith and Groves.

What has Smith done so far to make you think he'd trouble Eubank?.

I just can't see you you reasoning behind Eubanks outboxing Smith or Groves, Eubanks is not a highly skilled boxer or a puncher. He relies on output and physicality.

We've seen what output & pressure can do to Groves. Badou & Froch. Even Chudinov broke his jaw & was catching Groves flush as a toilet.
Again what has Callum done in his career to prove Eubank wouldn't outbox him?. The hypocrisy on here is unbelievable. Callum achieved less & shown less skillset than Eubank & there's this high opinion of him.

Stopped him without getting his jaw broken did he not.
Regarding Eubank walking down his opponents we're talking 90% of them. They all run from him hence why he can land 5 or 6 punches in a row. What fights have you watched?. The trajectory & trends of both careers so far tells me Eubank walks through Groves.

Badou was sticking it on Groves, Chudinov had Groves on the ropes countless times before getting stopped, Froch after getting hit with the kitchen sink grinded through Groves. You telling me Eubank wouldn't be WBA champion had he fought Chudinov?. If Eubank unloads on Groves & lands 5 or 6 of his trademark uppercuts who's to say that the ref wouldn't call it to a halt to prevent another Nick Blackwell?. You think Groves has a superman chin all of a sudden to eat those sickening combos?. Get real.

Who in this tournament have you got beating Eubank after Groves?. Can you not see why Eubank is one of the clear favourites?.
Let's see what he does vs Abraham.

Jesus Christ, you really don't have a clue do you. Do you watch any eubank fights or just go on forums and twitter to roll with popular opinion.

Eubank walking down 90% of his opponents????
He isn't a come forward pressure fighter, doesn't fight like that at all. You can take a crash course and look on YouTube were there are the majority of his fights condensed into 6min highlight clips. You may notice the opposite of what you claim is happening occurs in the fights, no one is running from him and the vast majority of exchanges occur in the centre of the ring when the opponent has come forward to engage him. He quite often likes to fire off a salvo of punches on the back foot rather walk his opponents down as you claim.

The one time a fighter "ran" or showed some movement against him he struggled to land any combos, until the fat ***** gassed in the second half because his training regime is for ****.

You use it as a criticism, but groves fought with a broken jaw against a genuine pressure fighter and stopped him and he's supposed to be fodder for a fighter who's shown he doesn't have great power at 160. Sickening combos ha ha, they're like me playing ea fight night when I let my stamina run down and land half a dozen haymakers with no effect.
Do you really think groves is going to plod forward into mid range to let eubank get those counters off, he's going to have to earn the right to exchange like that. How would you break down how he gets past the groves jab given what you have, or haven't seen?

[ArturoBalboa]

Your putting Eubank on the same level as Froch?

He's the same level as froch and badou jack, should be installed as favourite and has only star quality in tournament. But don't ask anyone to justify that with any evidence or analysis.

[NEETzsche]

Really excited by the prospect of Eubank vs Yildirim, which I think is a good possibility for the first round (Eubank or Abraham gets the third pick, and Cox and Skoglund will probably be the first two picks, leaving Yildirim and Brant). The Dentist will give Chris Jr a much needed gut check, that's for sure

Why didn't you mention Badou & Chudinov when I clearly did?. Froch proved you can walk through Groves.

I've explained my thoughts on Groves already you want me to write a book on this?. Then you talk about going on YouTube to watch condensed clips. You really are a clueless poster that is blinded by a natural dislike for the fighter. Comparing him to a fighter without stamina on fight night. This is the level of poster I'm meant to be debating with???. My post above is a perfectly fine explanation as to why Groves loses & why Eubank is one of the favourites for the tourney. Again I'm going to ask your hating self who after Groves in this 168 tourney has the beating of Eubank?.

I love how everyone has this high opinion of Callum over Eubank but nobody wants to explain why either. Everyone ducked the question.
