George Groves v Chris Eubank Jr on talkSPORT: Tony Bellew reveals who he is backing to win fight

George Groves and Chris Eubank Jr will meet in the ring on Saturday night in a huge domestic fight, which you can listen to live on talkSPORT.

The Sports Breakfast show spoke to Tony Bellew ahead of the super-middleweight showdown and he revealed who he is backing to win.

The former cruiserweight world champion, who will be part of talkSPORT's ringside team, said: “Both guys look fantastic. Physically they both look very good.

"I just side with George Groves. I think it is his fight to lose.

"He is the guy with the size, the power advantage, the guy who has had the better experience; he has been in with the better fighters.

"Chris Eubank Jr is a brilliant inside fighter, he works very well, has a good work rate. Not very much power, but has got an insane work rate so if George lets this fight get up-close, it could get messy and he could lose it. But, for me, it is George's to lose.

"If he keeps this long, uses his reach and that size advantage, I think he is going to walk away with it.

"Chris Eubank is a very, very good fighter but George Groves is the better boxer of the two. He is the better technician,he has the size and reach advantage.

"He just has to keep it long. It is all about his mentality."
