    Degale vs Dirrell will be an absolute stinker

    x2

    But whether it has the makings of a classic or a stinker, Degale won't care as long as he brings home a world title.

    Yeah stylistically Groves and Anthony should make for a good fight.

    No chance is it degale - groves, were already touching February now , there's not much time to build it up for the Wembley show

    Plus I doubt the IBF (which is degales route isn't it?,could sanction groves to fight for the vacant title after 2 successive losses for the belt)

    Degale has a press conference tomorrow, at this conference Eddie will also be making an announcement about Carl.

    Reading between the lines i'd guess Froch is retiring and Degale is fighting for the vacant ibf title

    It's all been kicking off on twitter today between Groves & Eddie Hearn.

    Let both Degale & Groves get there world titles then let them battle at wembley!

    I think it is more likely to be Froch vacating not retiring. For me, Froch has had a career big enough to announce something as big as that in his own small press conference

    my guess is froch will vacate and hold out for chavez in vegas. he'll announce his own retirement.
