    Round 5:
    DeGale is still really struggling with Groves' movement. Groves is growing in confidence. DeGale just can't get close enough to Groves to get his shots off. Slower paced round than the last and much closer.
    Groves 49-47

    Same. James is so uncomfortable on the front foot and I doubt McDonnell is giving him good tactical advice.

    Groves is getting in some quality whacks, but DeGale can seem to take them while Groves reacts less well. Close fights like this can turn on that.

    Groves slowed down a bit in that round.

    Close round. Degale lands best punch so far right at the end. A couple of sloppy exchanges. Degale 10-9. Now 4-2 Groves.

    Round 6:
    Cagey stuff at the start of the 6th with nothing of note landing. DeGale is shooting his jab out but it's not landing. Groves output has dropped this round, perhaps they are concerned about whether they can keep this up for 12. Good left hook from DeGale! But George shakes it off surprisingly easily. DeGale switches from orthodox and back. DeGale's best round yet.
    48-47 Groves
