More tales of Sparring domination from team Eubank...
He is the unified, lineal and P4P World Champion of sparring in his Brighton basement.
An ATG & HoF Sparring legend if you like.
He has also beaten a 38 year old Arthur Abraham...be warned.

Originally posted by RJJ-94-02=GOAT View PostYeah I can’t wait for it, I’m going to this fight as well so that’s why I’m so hyped. I’m picking Groves by decision ATM but I’ve been flip flopping all week. I can genuinely see any outcome in this fight which is why I think it’s so interesting. I’m still not totally sold on Eubank but a win over Groves would legitimise him as a top fighter at 168.

Sparring is just that, sparring. Doesn’t mean much when the bright lights come on. I keep switching between the two. I wanna see the weigh in before I decide! May the best mate win! Lol

I can’t see that though tbh I think it’s a close fight but I think the size element plus the better boxing skills possessed will allow Groves to win a tight decision.
I agree the winner is definitely #1 also. I rate Ramirez but he doesn’t have the resume to make that claim yet.

Originally posted by john l View PostI like Benvanedez over Ramirez.Ramirez is solid,decent punch,good chin, but his D and speed don't impress me.And the things he can do he is not great at.I really see him like a tough mid top ten kinda guy.Now he prob should be rated higher RIGHT NOW but when the dust is settled I think that's where he will stand.Really I see the kid having a better upside.
I think Ramirez is a guy that kind of fights to the level of his opposition, he impressed me vs Abraham, but has been quite underwhelming since. I think you’re right regarding his speed, he seems very one paced.

I'm a Eubank Jr fan and I like Groves.
I'd be surprised if this fight is even competitive. I don't think George Groves has much left at all (the Froch fights had taken a big junk out of him) and is now a KO away from retirement. (I predicted that for DeGale too. Poor DeGale!) I hope George proves me wrong.
Eubank Jr by KO in 8 rounds or less.
