    Eubank has the physical talent but at least so far he lacks the skill.

    Taylor was bit the same but with clearly more skill. Against suitable opponents he too looked very good

    At least so far?

    Eubank Junior is 28-29 years old. He is what he is and he's not gonna improve. From what I've seen of him, he is skilled as a counterpuncher when a guy comes at him. But he can't handle movement/smart boxing.

    His old man was actually the same way.. Eubank Senior wasn't exactly the most skilled operator of all time.

    His dad was a lot better though, and would have stopped Groves.

    I disagree. Some tactical advice might do wonders for him and after this loss he might actually listen

    Eubank jr, like his father, has very slow feet and his terrible at cutting the ring. Againsty skilled boxer, the only thing he can do his to bully them against the ropers and flail away.

    Taylor will be able to handle him imo
