    They'll be allot of people with egg on their faces when Groves knocks DeGale out.

    1/4?? Do me a favour.

    Groves by KO is tasty.

    Agreed. I think he'll do a much better job this time around. It'll probably go to the score cards but those odds are definitely worthy of a punt.

    Smith won't stop Simpson.

    I mean, in addition to Smith, Simpson's fought Lindsay, Appleby, Matthews, Foster etc and never been stopped. And in the fights I've seen.... never looked like being stopped either.

    This is going the full 12. Simpson's got a half decent dig on him but not enough to stop Smith.... the ''will the fight go the distance'' is best priced at 2/7. I'd make it 1/7 to be honest.

    Groves might be a good bet.

    Totally agree def can see this going the distance. If i was to go for a stoppage simpson at 9-1 is much better value.

    I don't see him stopping degale. I don't see him outboxing him either.

    The fight has become emotional and thats thrown it up in the air completely. I thought Groves had the potential early but he is more interested in building a home in Hayes arse. Despite being a complete ****, DeGale has improved so I thought he would win. But now that it has become a bit heated, I think it could be 50-50.

    I see your point, i just have a good feeling degale has a chin and that will take him far. I don't think he will be another David Reid.

    I'd be concerned over a headclash on a price that short
