    Groves is going to win this fight. Froch is ripe for the taking.

    I think it's a 70/30 fight with Booth in his corner it's a 99/1 shot without Booth. For me it would be a huge shock if Groves got the win.

    Because its Booth and Groves you half expect this to be mind games, it's pretty unbelievable if true. Big dent to Groves chances too, he has to be at 100% to stand a chance and a huge change like this so close to the biggest fight of his career is not good

    Over at the scene there saying they put the question to Booth and responded with "true".

    Not sure on this one. Froch certainly believes it but you never know with Booth and Groves, as it's been mentioned they like there mind games.

    If it is true, where does Groves go? Tony Sims would have to be the favourite.

    Haye and his camp have just released this sparring montage in the lead up to the Fury fight.... it's the video that's on the thread, cleverly named "Haye training and sparring".

    http://vimeo.com/74734319

    Go to 1 minute 18 secs of the video, look who is standing watching the sparring..... none other than George Groves.

    Not sure the split is legit.

    Its all about money and he did split. The sparring sessions were before the split.Adam Booth(Hayemaker Promotions) Get 35% from the money, George Groves wanted to pay Booth only 10% and wants to manage himself.

    Look at both pics from 15 september from booth twitter it explains all

    Most likely Booth is focused 100% on Haye either that or there is a small chance there is an issue in the Haye camp that needs his immediate attention (such as an injury - sparring looks WILD!) There is no way they are negotiating money now with these 2 massive fights only weeks away. Both are too professional to split from each other now over money or anything else.
