    I can't blame him. You don't say what Eubank said. No need for it.

    This reminds me of Warden's cards one hour before main event - the atmosphere is stone dead

    Bit of unrest between the sheets in the crowd as many were expecting Dele Alli to present the trophy.

    I’m kind of edging towards Smith, but Joe G puts me off being absolutely sure. Hopefully a good fight ahead.

    If grove's shoulder is fine he wins imo.

    Got a feeling we might see a froch 1 showing from groves if he is 100% and Smith doesn't have froch level chin.

    Here we go. A bit surprised by the early start, even if it is later out in Saudi. This whole matchup has been so poorly promoted and advertised. Everyone involved seems to not care too, I guess due to the oil money. Lets hope for a great fight

    Agree mate - fully fit Groves wins but I have big doubts about fighters after a shoulder injury.

    I wonder how Smith will start you know, Groves tends to start fast and this isn't anything new to him. For Smith its his firsrt world title fight, fight for winner of the tournament, first huge event for him in that context.

    Wonder how he starts this one will be interesting, can't wait.

    Im confident Smith will fulfill his potential 20 - to fill out to cruiserweight that is! Im not sold on his boxing from what ive seen so far though...take away his size and he is a fairly basic boxer to me...tonight will tell me a lot...:)

    Completely failed to buy this on through Sky even though I’ve registered and bought the previous ITV boxing PPVs. Great f***ing system again. I’m sitting here bereft!
