Its highly likely he will. He has always heard final bell in sparring.
Its so likely he will

This could be an amazing 12 round toe to toe exhibition but It’s beginning to get to the stage where it can’t live up to the hype.

I've got Eubank with the win. He's just too fit, he doesn't gas.

He very well might have a great chin but that has YET to be proven.And sparring with Headgear and 18oz gloves don't prove much.Its a BIG diff to get hit with 12oz Am gloves much less 10oz pro ones.It seems to me people just want to assume he has his fathers chin.Taking a punch is something that you don't just pass down automatically.

Ya know I find this to be a kinda trickey pick.Groves is better tech,bigger,hits harder and has more experience but Eubank's got the speed and stamina but looks lost sometimes in there esp at mid range.This should be easier but not sure where GG is at moment as far as prime.And IF Eubank has his fathers chin and heart then along with his workrate could trump all of GG advantages.

Eubank has a very solid chin. We are yet to see if it’s as solid as his fathers, but if it is then he won’t lose.

Just wish he had his dads fashion sense too.

Well his chin has been proven. I get what you mean by 180z gloves and headgear, but he's been spsarring and pro for many years. No stoirues of anyone denting it. He's sparred with cruyiserweights who tried koing him but couldn't. Spike ossuivan hit harder than groves
Froch said he put groves down in sparring and the same shot he hit eubank with 20:times and he just picked his lips.

Again though Froch hit Groves with 10oz and Eubank 18oz it really is HUGE diff.The tape is diff on hands and gloves you really cant compare.And most sparring storys are NEVER heard now a days your starting to hear more but still its like an unwritten rule.And I'm not sure Spike hits harder then GG really I doubt it he is 160 GG a big 168.And its the punch you don't see that gets you and GG is a MUCH better boxer then Spike.Eubank MAY have a great chin like dads but its YET to be proven.He don't have a glass one thats been proven.
