    as most of us figured out.

    Its a good move for Groves. Gets him some profile.

    Fight anybody half decent March 9th, then Anderson May 25th, then go for the Abraham vs Steiglitz winner.

    TBH as support bouts I think Lee-Barker OR Groves-Anderson II is more likely than both.

    Joshua is a novice but I've not seen much so far to get that excited about. Long way to go yet for him though.

    FW get out will be he won purse bids to stage the fight so Groves initial contract did not matter

    Booth is quoted on the scene as saying they left amicably.

    Maybe the key to being able to leave Allegedly amicably is to have Booth beside you when you tell Allegedly the way it is.

    There'll be no shenanigans going on, unless Allegedly fancies having holes burnt in those expensive suits.

    If your Booth & Groves, sign a 2 fight deal for March 9th and May 25th.

    The your mandatory for Arthur Abraham, good profile from being back on sky. your one of the best free agents in boxing and can name your price to Matchroom, GBP or Sauerlands.

    So Groves has gone from Hayemaker, to VVarren, to Matchroom? How long before he jumps ship again & signs full time to GBP?

    Ive followed Groves ever since he turned pro, however I can't help but feel he has turned into a bit of a *****.

    Hayemaker ceased to be a stable, VVarren didnt pay him as per his contact.

    What would you do?

    yep, you can understand the reason behind both moves. If he's not active or leaves Hearn then maybe it will give pause for thought.
