    wonder if he thinks energy does anything well
    grove as talked to much and backed very little of it up
    cobra'd off that guy who aint very good according to George
    froch should have gone sparring badou before groves fought him

    Gutknecht is pretty decent. Might actually go the distance.

    It is what it is, a keep busy fight, I personally don't think it will be much of a test for Groves.

    Bit surprised George is not boxing for the WBA super. Can only inagine he's waiting to face winner of De Carolis fight? Very strange fight to take.

    Why didn't his promoters insist that the Smw title get put on the line with him and whoever?

    Looks a keep busy fight should be no upset here. Guys durable at least.

    According to the latest presser this fella is one of the few men to have beaten GGG in the ring.

    This is on Channel 5 so that's good for Groves.

    Someone explain to me Barry McGuigan's role in all of this, besides being the dad of Groves' trainer.

    Basically Cyclone have the exclusive contract with Channel 5 and he is the promoter of the whole event.

    Doesn't this guy hold an AM win over GGG? Either way, his pro career has been a bit meh. I don't think he's any better than Murray at all
