Comments Thread For: George Groves Decisions a Bloody Chris Eubank Jr.

[asgarth]

As limited as Eubank is, who else beats him in the top10?

He is crude, he cant throw straight punches, doesnt get in range with the jab and couldnt get anything done at midrange, but he has a good engine and has a very high workrate, if he is allowed to throw his flurries.
Groves had the right ingredients for him. Power and straighter punches to keep him out of range and the ability to tie him up at close range.

Ramirez, Groves, Smith, (Eubank), Truax, DeGale, Dirrell, Dirrell, Benavidez, Brähmer are the current top 10.

I gave Eubank 3 or maybe 4 rounds.

He looked clumsy, clueless and was clearly rocked a number of times.

No jab, no footwork, spent most of the fight following Groves like a puppy around the ring.

You need ringcraft and more than basic boxing knowledge to win a World title.

Eubank saying he doesn't need a trainer is just pathetic, he is an entitled child who has had smoke blown up his a$$ by his lunatic father.

Anyone who thinks Eubank actually won that fight needs to be confined to an asylum.

This lol. Was going to post my thoughts, but couldn't say it any better than you did.

Great excuses by Eubank post fight: he's bigger, it's not my weight category. Lmao

If he dropped to 160, he might attract Canelo. Styles make fights, and Eubank would make Canelo look great, and Golden Boy would know that. Plus Canelo gets the Eubank name on his resume etc, even if its not the real one.

Meantime Saunders is all wrong for Canelo, and again, Golden Boy knows it. Even if Canelo won, too high a probability that the fight would be a dud with arguments later about the scoring criteria, just what Canelo doesn't need.

LMAO at Eubank immediately calling out Truax. Everyone knows Truax is the one of the softest touches to a belt out there and I hope Truax cashes in to the max now that everyone wants to fight him. Could Eubank outbid the rest ? Possible - it would resurrect the fantasy of him being a world champ - might be worth something.

Since Groves was backpedaling all night and not engaging in toe to toe action making Eubank miss constantly , does this mean that Eubank was robbed?

Saul and Delahoya won't even urinate on Eubank after that lost fight. He need a couple of solid wins now.

Had Eubank beaten a top 10 MW or SMW?

Maybe O'Sullivan or Abraham? Where did all the hype come from, exactly?

Adalaide, remember the doctor suggested you take a break from boxing until the new industrial strength glasses arrived.

Markus Mcdonald only gave Groves the fight by two rounds ....what was the idiot thinking.The fact is Jr. only won two rounds!

No need for a rematch and Eubank talking about the tournament winner fighting him ......what a knob!
