But nothing short of a knockout loss can derail Jnrs hype train for long.
Eubanks Jr to me is 2 assets above "amateur" level,thats his engine/conditioning & chin. He is the definition of a spoiled brat who was too arrogant to even hire a trainer because it would mean accepting hes not already perfect & infallible in his supposed mastery of being the greatest of all time. His "fundamentals/technique" are among the worst ive ever witnessed in a title fight(Im not exaggerating either) what do you think?Last edited by kushking; 01-29-2019, 01:57 PM.

Respect to Groves on his career. Big fan of mfers retiring early like their late 20s to early 30s. This ain't the sport to stick around in too long. Plus since there is no quality control of the product of boxing you can easily fool yourself you are relevant til your late 30s to 40s regardless if you are or not at the elite level of the game.
