Chris Eubank Jr. is predicting a vicious knockout win over WBA Super World super middleweight champion George Groves on Saturday for their semifinals match in the WBSS tournament.
For Eubank Jr. to follow through with his bold prediction, he’s going to need to put his chin and midsection on the line by standing in the pocket long enough for him to land a massive amount of punches for him to get the knockout.
Eubank Jr. appeared to be the favourite going into the fight, but the odds-makers are basing their views on his wins over marginal opposition. Eubank Jr. has had a lot soft opposition like Avni Yildirim, Renold Quinlan, Arthur Abraham and Tom Doran.
“I think this is George’s last little hurrah before he settles down and has his family, and relaxes for the rest of his life. I’m going to help him on that path. George Groves is getting knocked out cold,” Eubank Jr. said to skysports.com.
“I told him he’s not ready. George ain’t ready, I can see it in his eyes,” Eubank Jr. said “He walked in here with his shades on. He doesn’t want to be here. He wants to get put into retirement, so that’s what we’re going to do on Saturday night. I’m taking that belt home.”
