Groves is the better boxer for me.

Never used to be, started off very unorthodox and wild, but has reigned it in over the years. More of a plodder now.
Can’t be a draw in this there’s got to be a winner to progress.
Eubank will be KO'd here.
Eubank being exposed again. This is pretty funny.
Eubank hasn’t improved since the BJS fight, just been fighting bums
Eubank gets a good punch in, then does not follow it up
Never had the right mentality. Groves wants it more. And Groves' mentality was always a source of concern, but he's come back stronger.
Defensive boxing is so shit to watch.
Agreed. He’s needs to get rid of his dad and got a proper team together. The basics are there and he can improve but the arrogance of his dad won’t allow it.
Has anyone actually paid for this?
Eubank needs a KO or it is a clear Groves victory. Thing is, Groves looks more likely to actually KO Eubank, rather than the other way around.
The way Eubank has missed tonight, he wouldn't be out of place in WWE.
Eubank's shite but showing a lot of heart tbf
The f*cking state of Eubank. 
Groves 116-112
Eubank made it fairly easy for Groves tbh

I enjoyed it to be fair. Very scrappy but thought it was entertaining.
Best final round I have seen in a very long time.
decent fight.
Eubank a class below but kid has got heart
not me.
Fecking shocking from Eubank, wtf was that, looked like me trying to box, cant stand Groves but he deserves that by miles.
Groves used his height advantage and jab to well for Eubank to cope, and when Eubank got close Groves hugged him
Great effort from Eubank there.
Groves won, but I have a sneaky suspicion the judges won't see it that way.
Nope
How did the commentators miss Groves’ injured left arm/shoulder?! He barely threw a punch with it in the last round. That’s why it was close.
I like CEJ but it’s a clear Groves win. Anything else is an injustice.

It would be shocking for it to be anything other than a Groves win.
Last few rounds weren't bad but I wouldn't want to pay £17 for it.
Massive coaching miss from Eubank. He needs a proper coach and to be receptive towards feedback and constructive criticism. There's no game plan whatsoever. Really disappointing. As it is, I can't see either of these two making a huge impact at the very top. I fancy Smith to beat Groves if he makes the final.
Groves and McGuigan taking piss of Eubanks with the belt
Where does Eubank Jr go from here?
Groves made Eubank look rank average. Nothing fighter.
Hopefully away from his dad and into the arms of Eddie Hearn
Agreed and glad he got it. It was just such a messy fight I could see it going against him.
I know what you mean , Boxing has produced some shockers from judges in the past.
FFS sounds just like his old man.
Eubank needs a coach badly. Needs to bin his dad off from the corner and from his career really. Get on speaking terms with Hearn and get a proper coach and go from there. He isn’t the best fighter but he’s exciting and he does have potential to be much better than he is. Seniors arrogance holds him back cos they think they don’t do anything wrong. The post fight stuff sums it up, implies he thought he won, then asked for a title shot against someone else and then wanted to get to the final cos of groves being injured. They (Senior in particular) just want the attention and the fame. The real problem is junior will never bin him off and it’ll be a problem for his career going forward.
If he wants to have any chance of making it anywhere in boxing then something needs to change. Honestly looks like he just needs to go back to basics.
