    The braemer event was days before when loads of tickets had been sold, everyone had finish their camps etc.

    Smith and the WBSS knew before we even knew what the final would be that there would be a delay! And it’s only a few weeks. I think if it was September or something they (wrongly) would have fu cked groves off.

    Nice. I don't think the result of this fight is a forgone conclusion. Got a feeling there might be an upset and not just because of the injury.

    I’m waiting on Usyk and Smith for 8k from a massive boxing roll up! I’m not confident at all after Smith’s last two fights but I know he’s better than shown so far.

    I think Smith's biggest problem going into this, is the jump up, he hasn't fought anyone near Groves

    I think I read somewhere the semi finalists shared £3m with the winner moving on to the final where its about £4.2m for the winner and £2.1m for the runner up.↓

    Would've been harsh for Groves to miss out on a guaranteed extra £2.1m for the sake of a few weeks extra recovery time imo.

    Bet he got nowhere near that if so Parker Chidinov and Ryder would not have turned fight down. Ffs I would fight Wilder AJ and Fury all in the same night for that money lol.
