    Groves showed more arrogance over Kenny Anderson than DeGale ever has throughout his career.

    His loyalty to McDonnell though perhaps foolish is admirable in terms of his quality as a man.

    1) Explain how? He beat Anderson clearly - what did he say that was arrogant?

    2) your last point is just stupid. Also, aye aye, captain!

    i cant see him doing a 12 round title fight if it goes that long in germany then back out seven weeks later.

    Yep no chance, Frank's trying to play the game making out Groves will do that so he can keep belt in case he loses. Kev Maree mentioned it the other day.

    Yeah, I believe he can but Stieglitz isn't gonna roll over and let him have belt. He's a good solid European level fighter and it be a good fight.

    also people are playing a dangerous game underating his punching power yes he might not be a Tony Bellew Mike Mcallum type puncher but he is no Pauli Malinaggi from what ive seen hes solid and George is not known for a Burns like chin is he.

    Degale can be pretty childish but I pretty much agree with what he said

    I had the first fight 115-113 for Degale, then he went on and won a hard fought fight with Piotr Wilcewski (who Abraham just took the distance) and yet Groves automatically gets given a shot vs Stielglitz?

    Personally I dont care so long as the rematch comes off, Groves is growing as a fighter and Degale does need to change things up a bit, he sees that himself so he isnt completely deluded

    Heres for Groves - Degale 2

    Facts are facts - Groves got the decision. It wouldn't be right for DeGale to get a world title shot because he got the Euro title. And it's not like DeGale had done anything to earn a shot at the Euro, is it? And he barely scraped that fight.

    Groves has improved with every fight i still feel hesbeing treated to harshly for a bad night againts Anderson,he went on to win that fight againts a dangerous dangerous opponent in Anderson lesser fighters lose when they aint at there best like Gavin when he boxed Young Mutley and Woodhouse he was at his worst and still won thats always a sign of a good fighter with a big heart.
