    Or itv, or anybody with a decent platform to make a serious attempt at it. Pretty bad state when a boxer can only be a reasonably big star in this country if he signs with matchroom and pretty much be anonymous in the eyes of the general public if you are signed with anyone else

    Seems groves and degales relationship seems to have thawed a bit recently, both want the other guy to win their belt to get a massive unification fight on at the end of this year or early next

    ITV would only make a hash of it again, plus BT are throwing the cash around right now.

    I'm not so sure the rift has thawed more than they both see the potential poundsigns in them both doing well, if the fight were to happen again between them the bad blood will ensue.

    The monopoly does need to be broken but I dont see why Hearn is getting so much heat for it as he's doing a good job. Who would have thought 5 years ago we'd have a fight the size of Froch/Groves II?!

    Wouldn't say that's true really.
    I'm sure both guys want themselves to win their belt, and know the situation and how it is all going.
    The relationship won't have changed regarding Groves' fame and Degale's stagnation, and it'd erupt again if required and a fight was in the pipeline.

    Bt seem to be dipping their toe in by getting some boxnation content, but it seems football is their #1 priority
