No Eubank Jr For Smith as Groves is Cleared to Go

Groves vs Smith it is


At last the WBSS Super Middleweight final has some clarity, after much speculation on who will Callum Smith face. George Groves earned a spot in the finals by defeating Chris Eubank Jr although the victory came at a price as Groves suffered a shoulder injury. Groves has now been medically cleared and ready to go.

There was questions whether or not Groves would be able to compete in the match. There was speculation that a replacement would replace Groves but 3KingsBoxing.com has learned that Groves will indeed be taking on Callum Smith.

Smith defeated Nieky Holzken by unanimous decision to secure his spot in the finals. Smith didn’t look his sharpest in the bout as he won in a lackluster performance.

Groves made Eubank Jr look like an amateur in a stellar performance, where he was in complete control from beginning to end.

An announcement on the date when the contest will take place is expected to come tomorrow. The WBSS Super Middleweight tournament will be finally coming to a close. The best part is that both fighters that earned their way to the finals will be in it.

Who will win? The crafty veteran with a chip on his shoulder as he feels like he has to always prove himself or the young lion looking to prove himself? Soon we will know!
