    I think I favor Groves over Eubank. Should be a good fight.

          Groves will be lit up by Eubank, he'll be too fast and slick and he can throw serious amounts of punches for every round, should be exciting

            Yeah this is probably overlooked a little bit.

            Yildirim and Abraham were both pretty stationary targets, even spike O'Sullivan before that.

            George always looks a bit vulnerable, it is just how he looks. Even down to him appearing to be blowing after a few rounds, he always looks like that, lol, he gets marked up too.

            And to be fair we've seen him stopped twice by Froch one of them he was ironed out with one shot. So as a fan you think it could happen again.

            I think it Groves points or Eubanks late stoppage.

              I think Eubank can start to get to Groves down the stretch or even in approaching the middle rounds.

              With that said, I do still think Eubank has awful balance at times and Groves does have a nicely timed right hand. If he can get Eubank off balance and get respect with his power, then Groves might possibly be able to control the fight to a slower pace than Eubank is used to.


              For me, that fight will be determined by how much respect Groves can get from Eubank in the first couple of rounds.

                Great stoppages from ryder and groves. Can't wait for eubank-groves it will be big.
                By the way give tony yoka time to improve. Sure he looks like he need a lot of work but he is in great shape, very tall and heavy. With patience and right match making he can do it. He his an amateur world champion and olympic champion(even if he lost to joyce just reaching final in olympics is huge) so it's not fair to say that he didn't look good as an amateur.

                  Eubank Jr. will KO groves in about 7-8 rounds.

                  Groves gets into too many shootouts and Cox was landing some good shots in a competitive fight until he got dropped.

                    That was a fun fight while it lasted. The semi final should be a good fight.

                    Nice KO for Ryder too. Love how he is constantly tapping his own face with his gloves

                      Who has Eubanks fought who can punch like Groves, so far Jnr has been hit clean by every road sweeper he has fough but all lacked the real KO to really hurt him, add that to his own clear lack of power i see a comfortable win for Groves. If GG does starts landing on him i see it over inside 8 rounds, Eubanks has done well looking good against no hopers, but like when he stepped up against BJS he was made to like like a novice and i think it will happen again when he fights Groves.
