    Degale and Degale.
    Everybody seems to be creaming their pants about how much Groves has improved but the way I see it he's been matched more softly than Degale since the two fought and this notion of him suddenly becoming Ginge Foreman is a direct result of this.

    no way who has degale fought except the pole, id do think chunkys got a bright future and could be ready to fight froch in 12-18 months but groves has beaten geln johnson and sierra better then anyone chunkys faced.
    They are both on the same level imo

    Groves has far more talent than Degale.Faster hands,harder puncher and more accurate to boot.I would fancy him to knock Degale out next time.

    Groves won the first. Groves won the second. Groves will win the third.

    Groves may get the 3rd sooner than you think Froch ordered to fight Groves for the IBF. If he vacates Degale next in line..

    Everyone thinks George will stand and trade this time rather than fight on the back foot again.

    Degale won both fights, but I would favour groves to win no.3

    DeGale won it by a close decision first time for me. Second time I think Groves would win a wide UD

    I don't want to see these two lads near each other until they both hold world champ titles,which I think both are well capable of.Now that unification is a ppv which I might shell out for without whining like a *****!

    Thought first one was very narrowly won by Groves. Do think an on form Degale beats him though, over confident first time round while Groves stuck to a very good game plan. Can see Degale picking him apart if he opened up more.
