http://twitter.com/StGeorgeGroves Twittered on Sunday saying he's on the Sykes V Johannson undercard Anyone heard any rumors who his opponent is? Also, when is the deadline to announce DeGale v Groves?
don't know who is opponent is but at short notice it won't be anybody good, the last time he fought at a few days notice against kenny anderson look what happened, probly just some tough journeyman
I think it was Kenny Anderson that fought at short notice, Groves was already in training and probably fortunate Anderson hadnt benefited from a full training camp.
Looks like no one has heard any rumors. Must be a Johnny F they are bringing in... So can anyone tell me the deadline for the DeGale fight to be announced?
I don't think that the deadlines matters much - don't see the fight happening. DeGale eying bigger things, Hayemaker probably not sure that Groves would win... neither side wants it enough, I fear. Hope I'm wrong, though! Particularly if Groves is out this weekend, the way DeGale is talking he will have moved on by the time Groves fights again. Hayemaker don't like their fighers to fight too often, after all...
theres no deadline to announce the fight. the date and venue has been given to DeGale, Warren and the board they just need them to sign the contract.
No he wasn't Kenny was sparring with carl froch and not in intense training himself! Had he been he would have won the fight, Kenny will shock a lot of people when he shows what we see every day in the gym. He's something else and the defeat has taken him to another level.
Well i know he was scheduled to fight him in late november but obviously he had been training, groves would beat kenny at 8 weeks notice imo, kenny looked weak to the body, don't rate groves too highly neither.
