btw guys, may as well add your voice to the 'who thought eubank won' thread, since it seems to be lacking http://boxrec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=219230

Surely nobody seriously thinks Eubank won the fight?

I suppose you were referring to Candyslim and his post.
Again, for me, Groves deservedly won, but it was pretty close.
We are off topic, again.

Bear that in mind when I say I was quite shocked when the compubox stats showed Groves throwing and landing the majority of punches. I had the fight very close but I thought Eubank had done enough to win it.

I wouldn't argue the result but I would be happy if they postpone it until Groves is fit or if Eubank is allowed to progress. Either is fine but definitely not a stand-in who has not participated in the tourney so far.
Really? I'm very surprised you thought Eubank done enough. I don't even think it was close, the scorecards were too close I thought.

Give it another watch and you will probably score it differently.

So a guy who wasn't paying attention and didn't even score the fight got the wrong result. How surprising!

Even if you were watching the fight without much concentration, it was pretty clear Groves was winning?

He's got a pretty good point there.
