Re: Will Groves power be too much for Eubank Jnr?
Based on a distorted view of the Groves V Robot Matt Damon fight I've been firmly in the Eubank Jr corner, now I'm not so confident.
Watching it live I thought Groves was badly struggling and sure to run out of puff soon enough and get stopped. When he mounted that savage rally I thought he had to maintain it and end the fight, like Eminem he had one shot.
Watching it back I was wrong. It was a grind don't get me wrong and Chudinov was coming on strong, but Groves was far more comfortable than I gave him credit for and his fight ending salvo wasn't exactly the last roll of a desperate man like I initially thought it was.
This all comes down to how well Eubank Jr handles the power of Groves. Groves will get that right hand in at some point and that will tell us everything. If Eubank ploughs through it his output wins out.
Jr.........points
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough
