    I could of sworn you was hating on Groves a few months back now your can't get enough of him. Anything positive towards DeGale is treated with childish responses.

    You clearly feel Groves is better and will beat DeGale for whatever reasons....which i don't know.

    :deal:deal thought same myself..

    They don't wanna say anything out of line. Both lads are liked there and both i think put £££ into club. They won't wanna say anything out of line on camera.

    not the case. i was one of the only people to stick up for him from the Olympics until the Smith fight. now everyone is on his jockstrap. DeGale has gone from one of the most under rated to over rated fighters in world boxing.

    the reason for me trying to cool it is because i think paul smith is shocking.

    laughing at you calling him chunky. also have heard about him getting beat up in sparring and walking away when it gets heated.

    :rofl:rofl so your telling me they would tell all about them yeah?...on camera.

    So they went out as mates with each other then Robert?...went round each others houses and shared there last rolo's with each other?.

    ****ing hell.......the source i got the info from is very respected and is around the amateur game...so i think i will believe him over a video where two men are clearly doing what's best for everyone...not saying a thing...and i don't blame em!

    never been down on Groves ability. Always been high on both in terms of ability. Just think people are going overboard on "chunky"

    This fight just needs to get made! There is no need for either trainer to favour one or the other why burn bridges?

    Tbh i got the sense they were subtly favouring Degale from heir responses but that might be me reading too much into it.

    fair enough. the reason I like Groves is because i have always been told it was GG that got the better of DeGale when both were taking things seriously.

    :admin...sad guy. Smith ain't great but the performance was good enough to warrant positive responses. Even though the trolling has been laughable with regards to threads on matter.

    Sources? on the sparring or these more of your made up stories/figures and rumours?...

    My source spoke to his amatuer trainer and spoke about him sparring in there club and he said he likes a war...maybe there lieing...who knows...but they wouldn't lie would they Rob?...because everything on the camera was true :patsch.... anyways i'm pretty sure he deal with your boy Groves in due course Rob :good

    Anthony Small.

    they spared last year. Small was going through the motions, DeGale started trying to take the ****,, Small came out for the next round and put a proper beating on him. DeGale complained and McDonnell stopped it.

    You can't read to much into stuff like that though. Madanda might have a reliable source for his comment on DeGale liking a gym war but ive only heard the opposite from a few people. Heard he likes to be king of the gym putting beatings on lesser fighters, and McDonnell likes it that way to keep the confidence at a high.

    btw I think DeGale wins when the fight this year.

    Rob Palmer I think Degale will win because he is faster, hits harder, has a better chin and better defence. Groves won;t be able to handle Degale's power. Tony Jefferies told me that Degale used to beat up Groves in sparring. Obviously Groves has the 2 victories over him but I feel Degale won one of them.

    Ok fair enough Rob. I heard it kicked off so i can take on board your view. Tbh the way Small boxes i cannot see him beating anyone at level of DeGale's ability


    They only fought once mate :good and i agree with you.

    Btw i think DeGale won the amateur fight IMO.
