Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn: Groves Discusses Training Mindset

George Groves has a unique insight into what it’s like fighting Eubank Jr (34-3, 25 KOs), having beaten him in 2018 by a unanimous decision (117-112, 116-112 and 115-113). When speaking to Casino Apps, Groves was clear about who wants this fight more: “This will be the biggest fight of Conor Benn’s career and it’s the biggest fight of Eubank’s career in terms of the build-up and what is at stake. But when it comes to their mindset for training, it might be very different.”

“Conor Benn will leave no stone unturned. He’s working harder than he’s ever worked before and Eubank isn’t. He’s training hard and he’s taking it seriously, but he’s not obsessing about it, he’s not thinking about this fight day in, day out, every moment.”
