    Johnny Nelson gave Bernard Hopkins too much respect aswell, maybe he has to because he was the interviewer.

    Johnny Nelson would of ****ed, Bernard Hopkins up back in the day..! If Hopkins ever decided to fight him at CW.

    Ringside need to do a show on Johnny Nelson.

    I like Bernard Hopkins, but he was acting strange towards Johnny Nelson.

    As if he was trying to intimidate him.

    I know guys like Hopkins, i'm one of them.

    Something bothered him about Johnny Nelson, and he felt the need to intimidate Johnny Nelson.

    Groves going to spar with Dirrell, you think? They said he's off to train in Miami and Haye's over there already hob nobbing with Dirrell so you never know.

    Man, DeGale embarassed Groves. Look at that tie. Why is he wearing the same suit? DeGale is going to **** him up.

    Bernard Hopkins was acting strange towards, Johnny Nelson.

    I know guys like Bernard Hopkins from a share mentality perspective.

    Something in Johnny Nelson bothered Bernard Hopkins. And he felt the need to intimidate him slightly..........

    And Johnny Nelson gave him too much respect, too much.

    I know street intimidators like Bernard Hopkins, he felt threatened by Johnny Nelson.

    Threatened by his intellect and past history in boxing. So he felt the need to intimidate Johnny Nelson, and deflect him from the situation.

    That was just banter IMHO, Hops knew Nelson was an ex-boxer and was trying to yank his chain a bit,

    Hopkins was still mad that Nelson staked a claim for his Most Boring Fighter crown back in the day

    hmm. Degale is making a big mistake IMO thinking that cos Groves was hurt by Anderson hes 'chinny' anyone who watched Kenny Anderson in the amateurs will know hes a HUGE puncher, if he lands clean on ANYONE they are going to be hurt.
    So IMO Degale is making a mistake assuming hes going to hurt Groves just as easily!

    Funny build up, & it was like Nelson & Smith were those characters from school if you were arguing with someone there was always a few dodgy characters trying to put the mix in, to get you to start fighting! Im sure Smith and Nelson were gagging to get a punch up on their show to boost the ratings!
    Funny how Degale was allowed to call Groves a "ginger" this & that, if Groves had said anything about Degales colour he would have been deemed an evil racist! Good old PC Britain, where reverse racism is deemed as acceptable! Groves did well to keep his cool under such provocation, when he had every right IMO to give it back to Degale both barrells. I know I wouldnt have been able to keep my cool if Degale was talking like that to me!

    I didnt see any owning....

    Degale is such a joker though. resorting to Primary School jokes ''ohh watch that breath''. :lol::lol:

    Groves looks SO subconscious. Hes clearly received a lot of stick for the Anderson fight. And you can tell its getting to him. he also seems a bit jealous of the publicity Degale is getting.

    Based on their careers so far, theres no way Groves wins this fight
