Is Groves using a lot of steam?

Certainly thought saw, could have been feet I guess. Halling was just going on about Groves landing at the time...
He certainly looked like he stumbled forward.

too much head hunting by Groves, Rebrasse has long body to work on

I dont think Groves is boxing that intelligently to be honest.

I can see signs of gassing in Groves.

Groves just doesn't look powerful.
maybe its the change in training or maybe he's just not setting them up very well.

Sorry for bringing this back up but Groves's career stalled as soon as he split with Booth!

Any chance of a score card? Can't get to see it and it could be a shutout either way from what info being posted.
Cheers chaps

Groves won the first 4 EASILY
Round 5 and 6 were competitive
Round 7 was close
I'd give round 8 to Rebrasse
Watt and Halling have it a shut out, I could see 4-4 if this was in France...

Groves has probably won every round, but far from easy

It's good enough from Groves. It's a complete shut out upto now against a European Champion. It'd be a bit unfair to expect much more. A bit more leg movement side to side from groves would be nice, getting hit a little too easily for me.

I dont get what the French bloke is waiting for? the decision isnt going to go his way so why not at least have a go for a round or 2.

I'm first to criticise Watt for jumping on a side and sticking with it but I'd have to agree that there's a case here for Groves being 10-0 up here. His jab & workrate have given him the edge in most (if not all rounds). Rebrasse just hasnt done enough and hasn't upped the pace as Groves has started to slow.

Cheers lads getting worried from critiques. Like Georgea lot but sounds like he needs a strategic rethink of training from what I'm seeing on here.
