    God what a fighter Eubank would be if he had a trainer. Immense heart, chasing around a guy two weight divisions higher than him. Groves just to big and too clever.

    Yeah, not great.
    A good fighter would have had Eubank out of there.

    7-5 is very generous to Eubank.

    Groves left shoulder out of socket for half that round


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,430 ✭✭✭sonic85


    im a mug punter and an armchair fan, but eubank doesn't look like a professional.

    There probably are worse fighters out there but my word tonight he looked like a total amateur. An in shape lad from the crowd could probably step in there and swing for the fences and wouldn't look much worse. Desperate stuff

    Groves hardly did a number on him. Let's not exaggerate....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,858 ✭✭✭RoryMac


    Without taking notes I'd have Groves winning by 3 or 4 rounds, Eubank just far too slow to start and wild when he did


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,902 ✭✭✭✭Kristopherus


    It will be a travesty if Eubank gets the decision.

    Was Groves left shoulder damaged in that last round?

    Oh please he didn't land anything, energetic yes but average


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,711 ✭✭✭Joeseph Balls


    Groves fighting with one hand for last round

    he kinda did , did what he needed to do. Eubank didn't really push him.

    wasn't under a huge amount of pressure so didn't seem to risk a huge amount
    apart from some messing in rd 12

    Groves took that easily enough

    Yep still don't like McGuigan. So given that he fought a welterweight in the quarters and a middleweight in the semis, he's probably fight a flyweight in the final?

    Poor quality fight, both were dissappointing. Groves won by a few rounds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,193 ✭✭✭carltonleon


    I just go back and laugh when i remember the Eubanks saying that JR would beat Golovkin now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,430 ✭✭✭sonic85


    Just out of interest I'm just a very casual fan but what's next for Eubank Jr in your opinion lads? That fight was a disaster really - where can he go from here?

    that will teach me for cashing out and changing my mind


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,071 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Eubank needs a proper trainer. At world level, being a big puncher isn't good enough. It's not rock em sock em


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭anthonyjmaher

    Groves to win the World Boxing Series, and Froch to come out of retirement to take away all of his belts.

    Eubank very naive, allowed Groves to fight his fight.

    Didn't have the skills to change anything.
