Senior out of order coming out with that crap about referee needing to protect groves, but I’m actually more worried about the referee protecting Junior who has a very good chin, and George hits frighteningly hard

I love and hate Eubank Sr in equal measure, he's a prize tit, he knows a few big words but he has no idea how to use them, they hardly flow off the tongue, interviewing him must be a cringefest

I'm picking Eubank to pull this off, but I'm by no means certain about it...

Did the battles with Froch really take so much out of Groves or did Groves just need the motivation of another massive high profile domestic showdown to give him back the pre-Froch focus?

Has Eubank Jr, in collaboration with his old man, concocted, weaved and spun one almighty hoax?

Laters folks. Enjoy.

Groves is relaxed and smiling to The Rolling Stones' "Paint it Black" before trying a more Eubanks like pose to (I think) The Prodigy.
This is gonna be good :bag:

Groves ringwalk was class. It’s refreshing not to have Adam Smith rambling on over the walk on music.
