Its a 50/50 fight, great for viewers, Groves is one of the most under rated out there. He was robbed in the first Froch fight, and then made Froch £8M for the rematch, which to be fair a heavier Froch won. Great to see the tournament going on, I'm backing King George, but not with loadsamoney!
I normally read through a thread before I post but I just noticed something that may be useful to stateside people.
If you have had trouble finding these fights and don’t want to stream it seems AUD channel shows them
Undercards too BTW
Haven't seen any of tonight's fight. I don't have to. I'm not interested. Groves beats Eubank Jr. DeGale beats Eubank Jr. Callum Smith beats Eubank Jr. any guy who can actually box a little and is not a standing target beats Eubank Jr.
Eubank has a great engine.............and that's it!

Callum Smith beating Eubank Jr is a stretch surely.
Having see Smiths last performance, ostrich neck stuck out for someone to whack off the heads GOT style. Almost as stiff as a brick in his body movements.
Just a grade up from a tomato Can in World Champion terms.
What he can do is ride rough patches with decent pros and come back.
Eubank Jr could go the distance with smith, perhaps mess up his body for a late stoppage at best.
Just watched the fight he looks good in this one , but the opponent was a limited come forward fighter made for Eubank.
Lets see him against a mover.
Right, I've just watched it, so let's start by giving the cunt some credit.
1. Tbf to Eubank, I think that's the best I've seen him. His jab was good and his movement was good. Hit Yildirim with some nice shots too.
2. He's fighting away from home in a pretty hostile atmosphere and it didn't faze him one bit.
3. He's dealt very well with an unbeaten guy and closed the show well.
However........
1. Yildirim was very easy to look good against . No movement, no jab, walked forward without throwing anything and when he did throw, he left himself wide open. But hey, that's not Eubank's fault, you can only beat what's in front of you.
2. Eubank's percentage of punches landed was pretty poor.
3. A lot of wasted energy and was allowed to take breaks and lean on regularly. A more mobile fighter wouldn't allow that.
In summary, there was definite improvement, but Groves still beats him unless he makes a few monumental mistakes and allows himself to get hit by that crude uppercut .

Smith is not all that.
Groves gets knocked out by Eubank Junior if he wins next week.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
