Really looking forward to this fight, which is not getting as much hype as it should as it's on it pay per view.
Looking at the odds one thing springs to mind, the bookies are taking the early money on Eubank,so imo it's the right time to plunge on Groves before his odds contract which I believe they will.
Groves should be favourite he is a class act and so underrated, he has all the best form the best jab and is a far bigger man, his resume reads like the champ he is.

Better amateur
World champ
Only lost to top class supermiddleweights
Bigger man who could easily fight light heavy
One of the best jabs in the division

Eubank on the other hand has fought nobody at the weight..quinlan was a 12 fight pro when Eubanks nicked his paper title he then fought Arthur Abraham a fighter who was best at middleweight and still weighed in 3lb over at super..completely shot and not fought since.He then fought a Turkish walkforward nobody who did a good impression of a heavy bag.Eubank is in for a long hard night, I fancy a stoppage but I see Eubanks getting knocked down a peg or two with a good points loss.

Groves is physically bigger stronger and more experienced and fought at a higher level. So Groves to win for me. Eubank will have his day just not this time.

I never thought the day would come that id cheer for Groves but I was proved wrong. I'm praying he destroys Eubank, if anything just to wipe that smug look off his dads face. He's fought nobodies yet from the way he talks you'd think he'd destroyed every great boxer currently on the active roster.

A Groves win by KO would be delightful!

And I'm the other way, I can't forget how ignorant and obnoxious Groves was in the build up to the two Froch fights, I hope Eubank KOs him!

i have gone right off froch,he talks rubbish,he always used to say what happens in sparing means nothing but now judges eubank on a sparing session.Groves is a decent honest guy,who has matured a lot since then,Froch was arrogant to the point of disbelief after the first fight,of course it was stopped early and he knows it.

Groves was full of it and got sparked out. Brilliant KO for Froch and what a way to end your career.

Yes it was stopped early but if you look at Frochs other fights it would have been the beginning of the end for Groves. Anyway all water under the bridge now, and on to next Saturday. Can I ask if you've had a bet on Groves, he's 11/8 on Skybet for victory by points/ko/disqualification.

Never in doubt, it's all about form and Eubank was a hypejob.

Hands up to you. He was schooled from round one. Thankfully I didn't have a bet, I hope you lumped on at 13/8 and made a few quid?
