    Callum Smith is nowhere near on the same level as George Groves!

    Groves within 3, tops.

    Callum hasn't got any head movement and is lost when backed up.

    Callum has bags of potential.. I really rate him, but ready for Groves?

    No.

    Eddie has a vendetta against groves. It's weird. Putting out rumours Paul smith talks with dirrell calumn beats him now I'm getting rebraase for calumn etc.

    Deffo. :good

    Joe. G has called for groves to face him, too.

    The thing is with Groves, and you have to watch it, is that he WILL fight you if you keep asking him for it.

    I'd love to see GG do it to wipe that f*cking smug look off of Eddie's face AND to shut Joe up.

    There's no denying the lad is extremely talented, but so far in his professional career id argue he hasnt fought anybody as tough as perhaps his last 20 amateur opponents.

    He really hasnt fought anybody that can punch back yet. All these teak tough south americans and eastern europeans will only serve to boost Callums ego but do sweet F.A for his development as a fighter.

    Definitely. Groves knows it too. Hope Callum has a chin because he is so slow... Groves will be able to plant his feet and land as big as he likes on it.

    Groves within 3 tops :lol::lol::lol: we know your not basing that on there styles instead your basing it on your estimation of Calum smith, by that logic Rebrasse who took Groves 12 rounds is a lot better than Smith ? Don't be an idiot all your life.

    Callum himself said after the fight tonight he is not quite ready for a world title shot but will be soon and Groves is trying to land a title shot right now. I think they are on a different level right now but who knows where they will be in a year?

    I think Eddie is/was just doing his job and talking up Smith. Smith still has not been in a real fight, a real test and until he is we have no idea how good he is.

    Calum Smith would bite the head of the ginger bread man as easy as he does with his bread dipped in scouser stew not even crust bread just bread

    Stick him in with Rebrasse in a couple of fights in a super duper Elimnator I say.

    I think Callum Smith is capable of winning world titles but he should be kept away from Groves. Groves will take him out within 4.

    Think this is more of a case of gallagher and hearn hyping the fight up now so when it happens next summer it's a big fight. Groves has proved he belongs at world level whereas callum is yet to fight there, but knowing how hard smith hits it would be daft to just say he has no chance when you take into account groves' chin.
