    Funny how after a bit of press yesterday so many people have changed their minds. Either that or they were very impressed by Groves against that Afrobum the other week.

    DeGale down from 86% of the vote there.

    I hope Groves wins as DeGale comes across as a complete prat and is as sharp as a cueball. I do like watching James box though although both lack one punch power. This will be an entertaining fight!

    Because too many people judge a fighter only off their most recent fight. Too many people are completely overrating the Smith win. It was a good win for Degale's experience, but hardy a stern test. He was smaller, slower, less agile, and had abandoned all technique many years before then.

    boxrec only have it listed for the British title.

    I would have thought given the hype they would have gotten that right!

    Interview with DeGale on the scene. he is clearly getting to invovled.

    "I want to smash Groves up right now byt fight night I will be ready to explode"

    "I want to knock him out real quick"

    "If he fights me like he did Kenny Anderson"

    I hate DeGale with a passion. He isn't clever with his comebacks or insults yet believes he could stand alongside Frankie Boyle. He is way too cocky and full of his own ****. He needs a major reality check. Sadly, I don't think he'll get it here. I used to hate Groves before this fight. He too was cocky and full of himself, but he toned down here, maybe out of fear or lack of confidence, who knows. But really Groves doesent have the stylistic fighting to beat DeGale. DeGale wil pick him off on the oustide all the way to a decision in my opinion. DeGale won't KO him and he doesent hit hard and slaps, and while Groves chin is something to be desired, I dont think DeGale has the KO in him.
