    Would CEJ want the smith fight?
    I'd be going back to MW if I was him rather than facing another big SMW but suppose it's a lot of money to turn down and the Hype train would roll on if he won somehow

    Think if Groves Doesn't make final he'll fight Degale as a unification then move up to LHW and fight Jack.

    Can only see Groves having 3/4 fights more tbh. Dislocated shoulders tend to pop back out again. Hope not as I think Groves is in a purple patch in his career and could become a real P4P top 10.

    Kalles 10 day deadline for groves to say yes or no must be up or nearly up??? Any word from him? Is he participating or pulled out or what?

    Shane McGuigan uploaded a video on the pads of him and Groves earlier on this afternoon. Perhaps sending a message out?

    George Groves deserves to fight in final. He has paid his dues.

    I fear his shoulder is long-term fubar'ed though.

    He really needs to be careful with it, mate. I’d rather he sit out of the final and come back at the back end of the year. Let Callum Smith box Juniors head off instead.

    Groves isn't anywhere near a P4P player in Ly opinion. He has done ok since the brutal KO, and has a great jab and i admire the way he has rebuilt his career. But I think he is an accident waiting to happen if he steps up to the big stage again against a quality durable fighter.

    Tough to say. But do you really think he is anywhere near to being p4p. He hasn't exactly faced a murderers row post Froch.

    I agree. George ain't skint. Why risk your career on this one fight unless you are 100% fit...
