Right....that's it...never again....I am the frigging worse at predicting boxing matches. Groves was just ok.....Eubank can't fight boxers and looked just as amateurish as he did against Saunders.....totally overestimated Eubank.....just not as good as his Dad.

A lot better than OK. Controlled the range and pace of the fight. Showed incredible defence to negate Eubanks close quater attacks.

I wanted Eubank to win, but Groves controlled the fight from the start. I was waiting for Junior to pile the pressure on and get closer to Groves but it didn't happen. Give credit to Groves for not allowing that to happen maybe, but I thought Eubank looked reluctant to do what he needed to until it was too late and he didn't have the power in his punches at that stage.

Msybe with Groves injuring his Shoulder they should let Eubanks fight the winner of the Callum smith fight with the winner of that fighting Groves.

Groves may just need a bit more time to recover. Groves pretty much controlled the fight, and he has remarkable strength. Not a remarkable/spectacular fighter, but he does everything very well.

Naz bang on the money, chris is an exciting fighter with a great engine and a good chin but his boxing fundementals is s*** along with his IQ, he's a brawler with no power. Groves wasn't great tonight and still made it look easy. Canello and Triple G!? Do me a favour. He’s far to young to die.
