Groves vs Stevenson

Interesting fight Davey, a match up with two big punchers who like to trade - I don't see this one going the distance at all.

I haven't seen too much of Stevenson, I've seen his knockouts of Gonzalez and his loss to Boone. He is a dangerous puncher, but from what I've seen, he looks one dimensional and predictable. He's a southpaw, with a huge left hand, but Groves dealt with a skillful southpaw in James Degale. I'm not sure what top fighters Stevenson has beaten, maybe someone who knows him better can fill me in?

Groves is a prospect I really rate, he's cleaned out the British domestic scene, beaten the current European Champion and beat a tough veteran in Johnson, who's fought at the highest level for years. I think Groves is world class, whereas I'm not sure you can say the same about Stevenson?

In picking, I admit I haven't seen a great deal of Stevenson, so I will opt for the more proven Groves by mid round stoppage

 

Groves is another chinless Br!t who hasn't fought anyone isn't he? Groves getting dropped V a journeyman!

Groves just beat Johnson more convincingly than Dawson (twice), Cloud, Bute and Froch.

 

Havent seen enough of Stevenson to comment, Groves is looking better and better with each fight tho

I wanna see Groves-Cleverly at some point

 

Bute schooled him just as well. He was never the same after the Dawson rematch! Not to mention he had retired

 

Groves by savage KO.

 

This is a brilliant fight for both. and they are both about the same level right now...

so it can be made... and both would be confident they can win.

 

Groves - cleverly is a good fight too.

 

I can't see it going the distance either. Both have power but I feel Groves has a better chin and the ability to hurt Stevenson. I also think Groves has more solid fundamentals.

 

Groves actually took Johnson to war.

Bute schooled him, Groves tried knocking him out. The only other fighter in recent years that tried knocking out Johnson was probably Cloud and he gave up trying mid fight and went back to boxing.

And there is no point posting videos of Groves being knocked down for him to get back up and win the fight by KO himself when there are videos like this around:-

Its only 8 seconds long man, might aswell press play

Groves is to easily hit. Superman is a monster puncher and not that bad of a boxer either. Groves struggled with Degale , who is pretty **** imo. Stevenson takes it now, based on the fact Groves is untested.
