    it looked like they were losing interest in anyone but Tyson Fury, gladly that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Or he's signed a long term deal. Five is undergoing a lot of changes at the moment but this is a good sign.

    Bozic is ranked 30 so that should not get him above Groves.
     
  10. Brilliant

    Not only are they all potentially good fighters but channel 5s coverage is really good

    Terrestrial boxing is great for our sport

    It'll be a good card if DeGale can get a decent opponent with KG, Eubank & Hughie
