    George groves has appealed again to the IBF in regards to their ruling of a 15/85 purse split he has put his case forward for a bigger cut. Now surely he should be happy with the fact the froch has got to fight him now and surely 15% of the cake is better than what he was first offered. I think now with Feb 4th being the deadline for the fight to be signed its pretty obvious that these two will not be fighting in the summer as his appeal won't be settled by the 4th. Obviously we don't know the figures that are being offered but if groves is not careful the fight will not happen and surely 15% of the biggest british fight in history is better than 15% of f**K all!

    If froch vacates groves will get a title shot most probably against the No 2 ranked in the IBF which I think is gonzalez, this is a fight which will earn him no money and he will never get to put the record straight

    Froch will say it was groves fault the fight never happened and vacate, froch vs chavez looks more of a done deal than ever. I like groves but is he being to0 greedy?

    Oh FFS! Groves is a whinging baby and really getting on my nerves, If he thinks he wins and can earn over a million quid then do it, take the belt/s and start earning huge money in future fights.

    Groves has gone too far now, potentially blew it.
    He may sense injustice with the ruling but ffs stop crying, beat Froch then go get paydays as champ. Even if he lost the rematch he has lots of time to have a great career

    Have you's never heard the saying "the crying baby gets more milk?"

    Groves is only hoping the IBF will give him his 25% you can't blame him for that.

    Groves will be happy with 15% as long as it goes to purse bids, But you know Froch will vacate the title before it comes to that.

    If Hearn was as big a boxing fan as he says he is he would meet Groves down the middle?

    Boxing fans stand to lose out again because of Hearn and Froch's greed.

    surely though him not accepting 15% means the fight could possibly not happen it would probably be his biggest payday for years maybe ever. if he is so confident of beating froch why not except the deal become champion and move on then he could stick two fingers up to hearn and froch

    would this not make the open to being sued from past fighters in so called dubious fights

    Yeh i havent reached that point yet like haha

    I just want to see them both in fights tbh without either moaning on anymore. Groves got the rematch which he fully deserved but if this appeal leads to the fight cut off being missed and the IBF say 'Too late, sorry' then Groves has himself only to blame....and conversely will give Froch the opportunity to slag him off for a year before he retires without fighting Groves again
