KuganCassius: I wasn't there but apparently DeGale and Groves had a bust up backstage . Not sure of all the details . Rematch at Wembley stadium next year?
Mentioned this on another thread... I wonder if this 'bust up' is anything to do with one being billed as chief support and not the other?
Hope the rematch happens sometime in 2015. First fight was extremely close and I honestly couldn't split the two, I reckon a rematch would be the same.
Be another very close fight, i think it should happen once Froch calls it a day and when both have a world title to unify the division. Which i think they both will when froch vacates and Groves beats dirrell
Wont let me post links as i'm new but the story is now on the Daily Mail website. George Groves and James DeGale had to be pulled apart after a heated exchange of words following the weigh-in for their respective fights on Saturday night. Both Groves' wife and DeGale's mum were involved in the melee which saw the warring pair go head to head backstage. Both camps waded in before the respective security personnel intervened.
The chip on Georgie boys shoulder is getting bigger by the sound of things. All joking aside, i think he has some issues.
I thought DeGale won the first fight but they both want to concentrate on the job at hand because they are both in hard fights.
Groves already has beat him 3 times 2x as amateur once as a pro although I thought the pro fight was a robbery.
