Comments Thread For: Chris Eubank Jr: I Dominated George Groves in Sparring!

[Eff Pandas]

"Winning" a sparring session ultimately means nothing in comparison to a legit fight, but I suspect he does beat Groves worse than anyones beaten him thus far with all his L's have been highly competitive even when he's been stopped up til the point of the stoppage.

Eubank-faster hands, more athletic
Groves-more skills, not fast but not slow either
both have decent power and can hurt each other.

I'll take Groves based on his experience on big fights and skills.

Poo-Bank is dreaming.

Technically yes I'm sure he is, but of knocking out Groves. I've followed both of their careers from the start, but I don't see Groves having enough quality to best Eubank.

The Eubanks get a lot of hate, maybe some of it deserved for their antics, but you can't doubt his boxing ability. Granted his heart is yet to be tested, Abraham tested his chin with a few solid shots but nothing clean, so yes he still has lot to prove, but I don't think he has to stretch his imagination too much to dream about beating Groves.

I don't like Piss Poowank Jnr, at least Saunders gave him a boxing lesson.

I see equal opinions on both sides so that means this is a good match up. Eubank is the fastest 168er I've seen since Roid Jones Thats for sure

I like Eubank (for what reason, I'm not sure anymore) but he seems like the kind of insecure douchebag that would go way too hard in sparring and then tell people he beat the dude's ass.

Same here. Don't like him as much as I used to. I liked the whole homage thing to his father with his leap over the rope and arrogant strutting, but then it is slowly dawned on me: he's utterly charmless and nothing like hid dad.

I believe him considering how impressive he looked against Carl Froch in their session
Also Chudinov was able to find Groves in their fight and Eubank is a faster, higher volume puncher fighter than Chudinov. Just all around much better.
Eubank will eventually get on top of him and stop him, I have no doubt in my mind

Yep, I like Eubank JR but there is something about him that throws me off him too.

Eubank Jnr ALWAYS braggs about who he 'smashed' in sparring...

I think its all BS, I heard an interview with Leon Mckenzie who sparred Eubank recently and said that Eubank always goes 100% in a spar and is pumped up by his dad to go headhunting. Yet Mckenzie also said that he was not really dominated at all by Eubank, and McKenzie is a domestic level figter who turned to boxing after a proffesioanl football career.

Tean Eubank are all smoke and mirrors, trying to build up this reputation of invincibilty and intimidation yet he has ducked GGG and a re-match with Saunders and only looks decent against total bums.
