    I have to agree with Groves here, but he's still getting chinned

      We've all seen the tape of Eubank handling a prime cobra in sparring a few years ago I'm gonna bet he's come along way since then and George has slipped a step, this could be quick work for Eubank

        He didn't 'handle' Froch at all, it was good competitive sparring but neither man was on top. If you're judging Eubank on sparring footage then you have well and truly bought the hype. Judge fighters on fights, not sparring, and fights against good opponents at that. Sparring is practice, you don't win world titles for it. Eubank posting footage of him KO'ing an amateur was pathetic.
        I still don't think Eubank has great power anyway, his last opponent wasn't world class, I can't see him getting anyone good out of there early.

          E.U bum jr. and George Groves have been hating on Billy Joe, even as a middleweight he beats all these bums in this bogus tournament.

            Can't wait for this one.
            I'm intrigued to see if Eubank is catching Groves at a good time.

              I think Groves' skills will taker over Eubanks speed and power.
              And dont forget Groves can hurt Eubank too,

                Eubank has overhyped himself. Groves on a higher level with new trainer

                  Eubank has improved most from all top boxers in that 2 year period. Lets see if it is enough

                    I'm going to try and get tickets for this, tickets starting from £30 is all I've seen in regard to pricing though, anyone seen anything more detailed?
