    I dont know anything about the guy other than hes ranked #10 in the world at 168, so just out of interest is this a good fight to be made and who wins?

    Man. Tough fight. Oosthuizen is a quality fighter. He had a draw with Chilemba in a back and forth action fight. Chilemba later went on to decision the hard punching Vlasov.

    I'd probably favor Oosthuizen in this fight. Groves is a VERY live player here though.

    Wasnt an opponent of oosthuizen robbed recently?, I remember people complaining about a win of him.
    I hope groves can pull it off

    Well its very confusing as i cant find any fights on this guy so i cant judge him. Alls i know is that hes undefeated 14-0-1, is the IBO champ and is fighting Pryor jr next. Depending on how fast Groves wants to climb the ranks i think a fight with either of these two is compulsory for him to make an argument for one of the major titles

    Didnt know this fight was being made.
    Tough fight either way.
    If this fights happens, Groves really deserves credit, he is taking big steps almost every time he fights

    Dont think it is (yet). Just think OP was seeing it as a possible future fight for both of them.

    I'd favour my hometown boy to pull it off...Tommy is tall, deceptively kwik and punches preety hard...Definately a rising star to look out for the future
