    go down to middleweight, one warm up fight then fight for the vacant title

    british I mean, unless a fight is planned for that title already, I don't know

    was not embarrassing, just got caught with a good shot that is all,

    could still make some decent money boxing lesser boxers, get his confidence back

    Well it was quite embarrassing after all that stuff Paul Smith was saying before hand and then getting KTFO. I have no doubt that Paul Smith was mortified

    i know what you mean, but it can happen to anyone if they get hit in the right place, and if they fought again next week, it would not have the same outcome, i still think groves would win, but might last the distance, or a lot more rounds

    just getting caught with the right shot is not a total disgrace,

    it was a blinder of a shot, like a guided missle. me and my cousin kept playing it back on Sky plus!!!

    i guess what he has going for him is now that his promoter has a tv channel he can get him fighting 4 times in the first half of 2012 and then make a title push.

    Try his luck at middleweight. The UK has a good domestic scene with Barker, Murray and Macklin .......... and we have John Ryder and Chris Eubank Junior coming through aswell.
