Eubank came back well over the second half, it was too late though. He ran out of rounds. The right guy won.

7-5 at most to Saunders. Next time will be different.

Right , so you've gone from draw to 7-5 in 24 hrs. By tomorrow BJS Will have won every round! Don't forget , it's alright scoring rounds for a guy coming forward, but he does ACTUALLY HAVE TO CONNECT every now and then.

I am saying 6-6 or 7-5 I can see but 8-4 as you scored it is going into an easy and decisive decision.

Saunders has already embarrassed Eubank Jr why would he bother doing it again? I think Primo is right and Groves may have Jr's number. It would be a real shame to see the unbeatable Eubank Jr beaten again

[Master]

If BJS and Eubank win then that sets up a big rematch.

Ironically it could also set up a losers rematch with Groves v De Gale.

any of those will be good


Eubank vs Groves is a real fight. You know it’s a great fight when you struggle to pick a winner. Since it was made months ago Ive gone back and forth I can see either guy winning but I leaning towards Groves and this is why. He is a physically bigger guy than Billy Joe who was able to deal with the physicaly strength of Eubank at 160. Yes Eubank has improved since that fight but this is the best opponent Eubank has faced since Billy Joe. Groves also carries power and has a good jab which I think its crucial to his gameplan for this fight. I see the whirlwind which is Eubank causing havoc with Groves composure at times but should Groves be allowed to settle and establish that jab I think the rushes from Eubank will be few and far between. If he hits Eubank with power shots often enough to convince him he cant just come forward and close the distance then George should win the close rounds whilst Eubank waits too long to launch the next attack. When you watch how crude Eubank was chasing the fight with Billy Joe tripping over his own feet you feel a guy with Groves power could take advantage like he did when Carl came forward recklessly in round 1.

Eubank can hurt Groves too which makes it exciting and the pattern of the fight could change at any moment but if I were a betting man I think a bruised up, physically exhausted Groves manages to get through 12 rounds and deserve a close decision. He will have to fight out his skin & dig deep to get there but I think he has it in him. Eubank will claim victory too.
