Jacobs would have schooled Groves? I think so

[Morrie ATG]

eubank could not do what he wanted cause his "engine" misfired being groves punched it out of him and being stronger sapped his endurance in the clinches. all eubank could do in close was to hold the back of groves pulling it into his uppercuts

Nah. Eubank was scared to get clicked. Eubank knows full well that Groves is a bigger sharp shooter than BJS and bigger. It wasn’t because Eubank was tired, he just wasn’t confident with his offense as usual, and yes, Groves got the power that made Jr. respect. The cut was really bad too. Seeing how Eubank wasn’t never cut before, then I’m leaning that he was scared to trade, hence less the frequency.

Not fan of Groves’ style. I don’t like that Crab like ****** stance that Andy Lee rocks too.. I think Darchynian took the drunken praying mantis style to a whole other level doe

I though Eubank was going to turn on his engine as usual. His timid performance as well as Groves, who was already the defending champ wouldn’t need to do much anyways. The Eubank that sparred Froch and Groves wasn’t there. Who knows, Eubank said he couldn’t see well because of the cut, if that’s true, he isn’t ready for the championship hurt game against elites. This fight was a Saunders vs Monroe Jr. 2

That's a really ****** comparison, even by your standards.

The only thing those fights had in common was that a fighter called Jr lost both of them.

BJS vs Monroe was 2 slick, defensive boxers going up against each other. And Monroe stuck to his pure boxing right to the end. He didn't even try to put pressure on BJS when he fell behind on points.

Groves vs Eubank was a boxer against a slugger. Eubank looked crude and clueless .. but you can't accuse him of not trying to put the pressure on when he realised he couldn't beat Groves with skill. That kid was charging in, swinging and windmilling like a demented, minature Deontay Wilder, ffs!

Nope. But UK and USA rivalries should be the highest standard, which it already is if it’s cross Atlantic. You remember that fight, everybody on the board called that a snooze fest and we tried out best to hype it considering the comedic press conferences. Monroe Jr. said he was going to put everything into it, and BJS tapped his egotistical character even pre fight that Monroe Jr. was going to be easy work. So fight night came and those two bozos didn’t do jack shet but dance around like some scared Southpaws. Groves being the bigger and supposedly dominant fighter just stayed his distance and Eubank didn’t want to attack, so a snooze fest, yet they say Groves gave him a “boxing lesson.” If the skill level was apparent and Jr. was a hypejob then it would have been expected for Groves to have finished off Eubank Jr.

Don’t speak of Wilder. At least wait for the Ortiz fight.

Groves vs Eubank Jr wasn't a UK/US rivalry, you tool.

Maybe in your crazy mind the Eubanks were African American, but in the real world they are Brits, like Groves and BJS.

I brought up Monroe Jr vs BJS as snooze fests. Monroe Jr. showed more action in the Rosado bout and BJS must have been high on something or Day dreaming in the ring cause it wasn’t remotely close to the Lemieux fight. Groves vs Eubank was a snooze fest

Funny how Jacobs was a bum when he signed to fight Golovkin but now "he beats groves" by the same folks who called him a bum. Jacobs and Eubanks are two different type of fighters. DJ would want to fight Groves like he did Golovkin but he wouldn't be able to overpower the inside and fighting on the inside makes him super susceptible to the overhand right which is his and has been his kryptonite. Groves hits from everywhere with bad intentions. DJ would have to jab on the back foot the first few rounds and try to lead Groves into a powerful left to win that fight. He just wouldn't have a size advantage here to wear down his man and put in work. Interesting fight though.

Not a bad assessment however Jacobs Is small has a glass chin and overrated boxing ability.
Even If you take size out of the equation, Groves Is still better than Jacobs at everything.

Groves best punch Is the right hand. He would kill Jacobs.....

Urban Brits are conditioned to moving sideways, like crabs, from a very early age.

The UK is a small, crowded country. We wouldn't be able to get past each other in the street if we swaggered around with our chests and arms puffed out like ****** yanks.
