i must be seeing something different cause groves looks exactly like he normally does and you can see hes significantly bigger than eubank. baring in mind hes worked his way down and eubanks probably walking around close to fight night weight, you are going to see a big difference in size tomorrow

If dramashow is confidently picking groves that makes me now 100% confident jnr is going to win

well i do alright on the nsb pick em considering i supposedly cant predict a fight. I predicted saunders to beat eubank and im predicting groves to do the same. Too many gaping holes in eubanks defence and i cant think of many fighters who got themselves to the top of their division by having almost no regard for his defense. Im not sold on eubanks power either, it wasnt long ago where people were saying he has no power but i guess you are only as good as your last fight. And whats eubanks best win? That turk he fought last fight was a human punchbag, tailor made for eubank. When you think about it, almost all the guys eubanks fought up to this point have been tailor made for him, apart from the one that beat him.

Food for thought - Shanes last high profile fight his fighter failed to make weight. This time his fighter has cut clearly too much, even if he is rehydrating that is too low for a big SMW to come in. I would question that camps weigh cutting procedures.

Really pumped for this fight.

Eubank looks hard as a rock at 168. I believe him when he says he will knock Groves out. He makes his predictions come true. I think he is the best 168 pound fighter in the world right now.

Junior a small middleweight doe...

He looked fairly hydrated didn't look drained to the soul, come the night of the fight I'm sure Groves will be a good bit heavier.
Groves obviously probably did himself no favour keeping himself down that low.

I got Grooves. 100% of the reason is I like him better. Eubank rubs me all kinds of like he thinks he is all that.

Dumb reason to pick a fight, but there it is. Groves, in a SD that will not be as close as the score cards will read.

I'm interested in seeing the how they match up size wise tomorrow after a day of rehydration.

I read in an interview that Eubanks doesnt cut weight before a fight, but because he trains every day (im still on the fence about that one, but it seems to be working for him) he is always at his fighting weight, so he doesnt have to drain himself of strength and water and such.

Which makes sense, since Groves does look really dried out, while Eubanks is looking a lot more fit and healthy IMO.

think Groves gonna come in heavier tonight and it should show when they match up

[greeneye99]

Groves will get beat down imho.

Lol hoped you didn't bet
