    Neither are Frauds in the true sense of the word, but Groves is to a degree, in the sense that i think he believes he is better than he is or ever will be!! He acts like he is a World champ making his 20th defence or something when in reality he is a guy who got 2 shots and lost em both, the last in devastating style!! KTFO!!

    Degale should have a loss to Wiczelski , lost to Groves, And didn't look that impressive in a razor thin win over Dirrell.. If he fought the elite of the division like Froch and Ward he would get destroyed or beat easily. I think he's gonna have a very short reign... him vs Martin Murray is a 50/50 fight.

    Groves has a bad chin and looks shot since the Froch fights I think he's gonna be a Henry Wharton nearly man

    I like Froch and wanted him to beat Groves, but i never expected the kind of @ss whopping that Groves inflicted on him in the first fight. I've never seen Froch take so much punishment and it was Groves that showed all the class throughout that fight. It was through pure guts and determination that saw Froch take Groves in the end. Had Groves paced himself more and not try to knock Froch into next week, he could have survived to a UD. It was more down to inexperience that got him into trouble.

    The second fight Froch made it much closer and ended it with a devastating KO.

    But what it shows is the class of Groves, to take a very tough world champ to hell and back.

    Erm... Where too start, well yeah he lost to Groves, no shame there - at all.. Was a very good fight & BOTH were novice pro's at the time , question is did he learn from the loss.. Answer is YES, so kinda renders the loss as un important on the bigger scale.

    Got the win over Direll as I feel he kinda rested on his laurels a little, but key point is he came through with the win & the belt... He has shown he learns from his mistakes,I'd say he'll not do similar again.

    Tell me where exactly Groves has a weak chin, I'm intrigued .. Because he was done by Froch? Ok, very weak is the man who doesn't stand up to the shots there. No, his chin is fine for super middle.

    Murray - degale is 50/50.. Agreed. However, what is wrong with that, Are you forgetting who Murray has been in with? He's hardly a run of the mill blown up middleweight, he's proven he's the number 2 middle on the planet , him vs ANY super middle is a good fight.

    And finally, you tell me why they can't eclipse Eubank, benn & co .. They have time on they're hands and have shown the willingness, groves has mixed with the idol that is Froch way ahead of his time!

    Froch was not on Calzaghe's level and he certainly wasn't a level above Eubank and Benn.

    But the poll already rank's Calzaghe #1 and Froch #2.

    Calzaghe's name's first..

    He was a level above Benn and co etc.. I misread it.

    Eubank was better than Benn Kman.
