    I think have always though DeGale was the more talented fighter although not taking anything away from Groves who is a good fighter hisself.

    Groves fought the fight of his life against Froch who I think took Groves a bit lightly, I can see the rematch being over inside 4 another TKO as Froch just pins Groves to the rope and unleashes.

    DeGale IMO also won his match with Groves it was tight but I think a close but clear DeGale win.

    Chunky has plateaued in development.

    He is pretty far off from a world title crack tbh.

    Maybe a couple more years of milking the WBC Silver with only sporadic television coverage and he'll earn one in due time...

    Froch wont stop Groves in 4 lol, there was a reason he couldnt get Groves near the ropes that early in the first fight because Groves was beating him to the punch and landing hard shots repeatedly

    If Froch is gonna win has to be when Groves gasses again which he probably will in the late rounds, but for as long as Groves isnt tired Froch will look lost

    He will be mandatory for Bika if he beats Jack I believe. How you see those two fights going? I know nothing of Badou Jack :-(

    Would like to see Degale v Jack on Froch/Groves undercard

    What about getting Bika to have a voluntary on the card as well vs Smith?

    goes to purse bids in mid-March. Might be on the Mayweather undercard in May.

    GBP were pretty dismissive about the fight happening in the UK

    Fine but does his run of recent opposition (through pretty much all of 2012 and 2013 and seemingly extending into this year with some padded-record Armenian-Dutchman slated for next weekend) warrant him deserving to set foot in the ring with a Bika right now?

    If he should beat someone like a Jack, then of course that changes things...

    Pretty much this. Frochs only chance is to try and wear groves down. Groves will either fight a measured fight and win on points or he throws everything at froch from the first bell and one of them gets legitametly stopped.

    Wit regards to degale, he's shown slight improvements in his last couple of fights but nothing to make me think he will be winning a world title anytime soon, talented as he may be.

    115-113 where the rounds are clear cut

    Did I really need to say this?
