He said that, and he meant it! Lol

Excellent fight ive got it 117-112 Groves, thought he might get stopped later in the fight after building up a lead but apart from getting nailed with the occasional haymaker he was in full control, great judging of distance easily avoiding the crude Eubank, boxed at times and stood his ground as well, tied up Jr with ease on the inside and Eubank looked clueless, same story as the Saunders fight, Eubank doing too much posing and posturing whilst Groves picked him off with crisp shots, great jab and range, just a lot more schooled than Eubank, he did take a few silly shots but took them well

Eubank never jabbed, was easily manouvered out of the way and the corner work unsurprisingly looked clueless from the little I could hear, he did finally press late on and his heart and chin cant be denied but his limitations were exposed comfortably and so was his boxing IQ, I never seen his uppercuts until the 11th and they weren't successful

Comfortable win for Groves and I feel bit daft for tipping Eubank to win

Prince Naz is crucifying C Eubank Jr. "He's not got the ability". "He won't win big things in the next few years".

Scathing. Fair play for Naz not pulling punches. Unlike the sky team.

This and Senior needs to GTFO of his career starting as soon as possible.

Absolutely, I think any top trainer would insist that he isn't around

God I can't wait to hear Sr's comments. LOL

Prince Naz: "He [Groves] showed his heart in beating someone that just isn't that good".
Hard words.
Quite possibly right.

More action between Duke and Prince here than in the fight!

It's all about will apparently

Naz and Duke will be scrapping soon I reckon.

Yet it took Groves to show he just isn't that good. Loads of people thought he looked greated before this.

fair play to naz

I'll be honest, I thought the punditry is particularly poor. Incoherent gibberish.

Naz talking sense.

Ugly fight. Eubank's the better fighter. But made the same mistake again.

Groves the better boxer! But a lot of holding and clinching of Eubank's arm.

I genuinely think jnr is scared to tell him to f off .
The corner is a shambles

Few divisions between them these days

Honest about Groves too.. Groves against another boxer.. he'll lose.

Eubank Jr. can still be big at 160.

Egg on my face.

Naz should be a life coach

Let's have the Naz and Duke Show.

I predicted a Groves win, but the fight was a bit of a let down really.

Eubank couldn't box kippers.

is naz back sniffing. hes on a fukin roll

Someone please tell Naz.. it's Eubank!!! Not Eubanks!!!!

What was Bellews final card?
