It took some mental strength to go into the Turks den of hate, remain totally unfazed and then destroy him in a few rounds.Counter-puncher wrote: ↑16 Feb 2018, 13:28 meanwhile Groves has had the mental strength to come back from disappointing and devastating defeats, and yet is mentally weaker than a totaly unproven commodity who's never been in a tough fight? madness, for me. no offence, like, i just find it totally barking.
They are both strong mentally in my opinion. Junior is a cold fish though.

if braehmer beats smith im not so sure hes really an anti climax final opponentMightyWarrior wrote: ↑16 Feb 2018, 14:43 It’s the final really, or should be, as the final
will be a big anti climax, especially if it’s Brahmer -ugh

btw i always find weigh in day stuff so funny. just like a bunch of guys trying to reassure themselves that the guy they want to win looks good and the other guy looks drained 
eubank to win but they both looked fine imo

again with you and the murray fight which groves won nearly every round in. he was never in any more trouble than eubank was in rounds 3 vs spikeTheLeprechaun wrote: ↑16 Feb 2018, 14:58 Watched Groves vs Murray and Cox last night and really think there is a chance Eubank can make this look easy. I don't like how Groves defends when combinations are coming his way. Eubank might be a terrible style for Groves with his speed and combination punching. I can see Groves just getting completely outclassed and stopped within 6, as mad as it sounds.
i thought he won vs cox pretty easily too but he did look gun ho to trade at times and i think he can be lured into a toe to toe firefight that isnt in his best intrests

Does anyone know who boxing news picks in the fight and what method, I like to read the preview of big fights but I don't think I'll be able to get out today to buy the BN.
Re: George Groves vs. Chris Eubank Jr - 17 February 2018
Paul Wheeler picked Eubank on points. He expects Junior to be increasingly successful in closing the distance and landing effective combinations to catch the eyes of the judges.paddy chavez wrote: ↑17 Feb 2018, 06:29 Does anyone know who boxing news picks in the fight and what method, I like to read the preview of big fights but I don't think I'll be able to get out today to buy the BN.

Eubank to win well. If groves doesnt start fast he struggles. Eubank by late stoppage
