    No, he's far too easy to hit.

    I like groves, dude is better than people thought and he has beltholder potential, I believe he can become a top 5 guy if he goes on like this. I dont believe he will turn into a atg but who knows?

    He's got more potential than Robin Reid IMO, and he's widely considered top 5 ATG for UK.
    Is Groves better than Calszaghe.......never will be IMO, but like you said......who knows. The kid can bang for sure, and will take a punch to throw a punch. Sometimes that kind of heart trumps slickness or brawn.:think

    His chin and defence are the big issues. If they pass the test he will be a world champion imo
