    Learn to box?

    He can start by getting a proper trainer and base, start again at the beginning, learn the basic fundamentals.

    Depends on his goals. If he wants to try to be world class like Fenster said he needs to learn to box. From his feet up he needs to learn it all.

    If he wants to make some exciting fights and some money just get back in the ring with the best opponent he can get.

    There are some fun domestic fights for him at 160 and 168, I hope this loss humbles him enough to snuff out that arrogance. Learn to walk before you can run and all. Drop his dad, get a proper trainer and get straight back in the gym next week and start learning the basics.

    He waits too late to turn it up. Actually, I felt he won the Saunders fight. But he clearly lost the Groves fight. Eubank simply needs to get in the habit of fighting for 12 rounds EVERY round. He can't wait until the near end to turn up every single time.

    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?
