    Is it too late?

    Are there any other fighters in the past that worked on their boxing to a level where they completely changed their style..

    Haha, funny you say that, because I posted on FB earlier, that his only hope was to go back to the beginning like When Rocky went to Detroit :-)

    Glad its not just me, don't get me wrong I backed Groves at outrageously generous odds because I have always rated him. Whilst I recognise that EU has built a large amount of fans in his (short) career I really thought his performance was absolutely piss poor. I have to agree with most of you, 'learn to box' seems to be a cruel, but true, observation.

    As has been already said, his chances against GGG are slim and none, and Slim just left town. Any promoter rash enough to stage it would be purely hoping for EU's remnant hipster fans turning up at £500 a pop for the live event, PPV receipts would be a record low.

    Maybe he can get up the jungle like his old man?

    Not a lot of regular press over here about him but has Eubank Sr ever publically ripped into him or wanted to walk away? All I've ever seen was constant praise to the point of almost smothering. Jr looked lost yesterday like he came with zero plan and unmotivated.

    Eubank-GGG would be a tremendous fight, it's purely about styles.

    Eubank can't deal with world-class slickster/movers/thinkers, it doesn't mean he can't beat world-class pressure fighters. For all the deserved shit his dad gets, he picked the right fights to suit his style, unfortunately though, the process created a one-dimensional hardman with zero boxing brain and no plan b.

    Jr could beat current belt holders at 168 and beat current world-class middleweights.

    Odd performance from Eubank. So timid in comparison to previous fights. Has to eat humble pie, desperate dan style and come back.

    GGG is not just a pressure fighter, he has the skills to pick Junior off and take him apart when he has to.

    GGG's jab alone would cause Eubank to stay away and fight at distance.

    Don't entirely agree with most of that , but it's neither here nor there . Team Eubank have dug themselves a Massive hole. Not only do they have to convince the public about their credibility, Their choice to not deal with a promoter means they have nobody fighting their corner.
    Snr. as we all know , is an arrogant stubborn fucking idiot, who is impossible for promoters to deal with , simply because his opinion of Jnr's Value is seriously different to all the promoters.
    Warren - has stated that they're impossible to deal with and will never deal with them again.
    Hearn - would deal with anyone, business is business, even if they hate his guts or vice versa. But Hearn won't give money away. Snr. will feel he's getting ripped off , yadda , yadda and Groundhog day continues.
    Hennessy - makes no difference whether they'll deal with each other or not tbf.
    Sauerland - maybe, but they're not gonna be able to rebuild his profile over here.
    American Promoters - Jnr. is irrelevant over there. And they wouldn't put up with him bowling over a few bums and proclaiming himself to be the next Floyd!
    So like I said, it's not about who he could beat and not beat, he's gonna have to go to the back of the line unless he accepts shit money . And Snr. DOES NOT ACCEPT SHIT MONEY. Snr. isn't going to back off, because he has no other means of income. All in all, they've fucked up big time in and out of the ring.
