    These days getting frozen out of the Brit title is no big deal for a boxer with Groves asperations, there are plenty of other routes to take.

    Groves came across very well in the interview. At least being ready for December 11th isnt a problem.

    Maybe Booth is sitting on it?

    I wouldn't say sitting. More like editing.

    Got Groves on fb and according to him he aint recieved no contract yet.

    Warren is going down the smash and grab road. I bet the contract will a joke - rematch clause, **** money etc so if Groves does turn it down Degale can blag that Groves ducked him blah blah and get away from fighting him. I hope this isn't the case and Groves knocks the arrogant dick out... which he will do if the fight happens.

    Why the 48 hour deadline?

    Cos Frank probably isn't serious. I bet there'll be many things Booth/Groves will want changed in the contract and 48 hours won't be enough time.

    It says a lot when Warren if conducting negotiations through press releases, he never does that.

    That seems about right. If Warren really wanted to make the fight you don't put out a 48hour deadline. Maybe if you were like 6 weeks from the fight yeah but not now where we are like 3 months away from the date.

    I have always thought Groves comes across well, much better that Degale anyway.

    I'd love to see this fight and thing Groves can take him out but I think Frank will want options.

    Dont know Ish, there was something in those Fish Eyes that led me to believe he is completely serious. He wants his december show to be big...it doesn't get bigger than this domestically.
