    I think eubank stops groves late. Groves will go for the KO early and gas from round 6 on. Eubank has a good chin and good fitness and that will be the difference.

      I find myself doubting Eubank. Maybe I should stop

        I think Eubank wins by a close decision.. Groves doesn't have the same ferocity in him since Froch..

          Eubank will do a number on Groves.

            Jr will win due to his volume and stamina and angles!

            He's also shown a much better jab than usual and has shown that he can use the ring for better distance to get his punches off!

            Groves is tough and is a counter puncher who waits for the shots he needs!

            But he won't be able to cuz unlike Cox, Jr will stay on top of Groves and not let him set up his counters or find that shot!

            It'll be a very interesting fight for the first 2 or 3 rounds cuz Groves can really punch!

              Groves is infinitely more mobile than all the guys Eubanks has fought since Saunders and Saunders showed that movement is what is difficult for Eubanks to deal with. And Groves has way more power than Saunders.

              And Groves has put himself back together since Froch but his loss to Jack showed some flaws too and perhaps he rededicated himself. He will be at his best for Eubank. He has power and movement and experience. But then there is the physical aspect and Eubanks has that youthful physical strength that he imposes on other fighters and breaks a fighter down.

              Both he and Groves got nice one punch powershots in their last fights so that is a nice setup. If Groves cannot hurt Eubanks by the 5-6th round, he would have to have a perfect fight to outbox Eubanks.

              Eubanks may be able to make more mistakes than Groves and still win but I'm not sure of the other way around. My guess is Eubanks will win using his physicality, youth, and athleticism......slight pick toward him.

                I think it's a 50/50 type fight.

                Eubank will try and impose his will, Ithink groves is bigger and a little stronger.

                Eubank won't be able to just blow him out of the water. Groves has some power to

                  Eubank has never walked anyone down in the way that Groves has trouble with, has he? There's no way he can outbox him from range imo, so I'm going with a convincing Groves win.

                    Let's be honest though, Eubank hasn't shown a lot of power in most of his bouts. He's only seemed like a big puncher so far against Yildrim, who for all we know has a china chin...

                    Great avi btw
