Sloppy as fvck, does he ever once return a hand to anywhere near his chin after punching? Leaving them dangling out there, looks fornicating awful to mewesshaw1985 wrote:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ursZyOUIgUg
Nice post. I wasn't aware Strum tested positive in the second fight.He looked so very strong and fast For a 37 year old. I only finished watching it today and I thought Chudinov completetly outworked him. I unlike you though think Chud will chop Groves down, maybe loose the first half, but that pressure and engine to throw will make it a very uncomfortable night for Groves, if Chud can survive the early goings. Think this might be a good one with back and forth momentum/exchanges.handsofstone wrote:I really think this could be Groves time, although I thought he would've beat Jack as well mind, its now or never surely, Chudinov is a good strong fighter but not in Jack or Froch's league, I hope the Gutknecht fight isn't weighing too much on Groves's mind and he can use it for inspiration, he was really good in the fight and really gave Gutknecht a beating, obviously it was costly but at least if Groves were to win then it would've been for something
I thought Chudinov should've been reinstated as champ anyhow after Sturm pissed dirty to rub salt in the wounds of being given a gift against Chudinov in the first place, Fedor beat Sturm comfortably enough 1st time and only wins by SD, Sturm gets a rematch Chudinov wins comfortably again on my card but Sturm gets it and then fails a test, an absolute joke
Groves will need to stay switched on against Chudinov and try not to get involved in any exchanges, he has a tendency to try slug his way out of trouble and if Chudinov gets there first then Groves will be in trouble, i'd like to see Groves use his brain in this fight, he's got a great jab and is punching to the body well these days, Chudinov is sturdy and I'm sure he'll have his moments but its Groves ability that should win on the night, goes to the cards though

He was taking heavy unanswered punches chudinov a nightmare for any super middle think he would cause degale awful trouble with that pressuremanchester-mexican wrote:stopped a bit early for mewesshaw1985 wrote:Up next...
He was getting hit heavy and clean and threw nothing for a long long time. He clearly wasn't going to go down. Did you want to see him hit anymore?manchester-mexican wrote:stopped a bit early for mewesshaw1985 wrote:Up next...

For me the issue was that no matter what Groves hit him with he wasn't going down. Too many unanswered punches for me.manchester-mexican wrote:tbh didn't even know thatTheDarkDestroyer wrote:It's not allowed.manchester-mexican wrote: Champion, why not give him a standing count ??, don't get me wrong happy for Groves, just thot it a bit premature for a world title fight

If it wasnt stopped then I could anticipate another Blackwell/Gutnecht type situation. Nobody wants that.
