Its even earlier in their careers than the Degale/Groves fight. Groves/DeGale had twice the number of fights that these 2 have had. And yes, was a little odd for those 2 to fight so early. I get the feeling that people didnt realize how good Groves was at the time and thought it would just be a nice learning fight for Degale.
This is another young British prospect along with Eubank Jr who you do not rate. Starting to think your own personal feelings are coming into play. Just so you know I'm not a particular fan of both but until for boxing reasons they show me otherwise, I will consider them prospects.
