    I've heard the same, that european title fight is off and he is fighting some Argentinian on Hearn's bill.

    Groves would be an incredible signing. Props to Adam Booth if he made a contract where George can just walk away pretty much, would be very unlike a W*rren fighter to be able to do that.

    He would certainly be a great signing for matchroom Adam Booth would be too smart to sign away options or lock Groves into a long term deal with Mr.W.

    Look back to Haye Booth got the best terms for his fighter on a fight by fight basis .Either here or negotitations with regards the Klitschko fight hyped it up & may of lost the fight but not £.

    Didn't matter if it was Setanta,Sky or the summer against Chisora on Boxnation smart manager imo.

    On way back from gym, rumour there is booth and groves wanted money upfront as before - frank did not oblige hence groves has jumped ship

    Obviously these are gym rumors but no smoke without fire

    Hope it's not a big blow for Boxnation.

    You don't see them ripping off fans with a subscription fee and a PPV fee... They put Floyd and Cotto on normal tv but Eddie Hearn wants PPV for a Froch fight.

    Apparently he has in his contract that he has to be paid a month before a fight and he hasn't received any money yet, so I've heard.

    The rumour goes that this was the reason Groves was a no-show a couple of times - excluding Anderson, of course.

    That means it could still be Groves, Mitchell or Joshua. I haven't heard all this **** about Groves European title fight being off, where's it come from? BoxRec still has it listed. Now that I think about it more I realise that's unlikely they'd annouce Joshua's debut only a week before it happens, it would be built up too and hyped like crazy for weeks. I'm now starting to believe it's Mitchell and there's just getting him out for a keep busy fight with the hope of building up up to a title fight in the year. Maybe even a fight with Rees?

    Eddie in that article to Frank "Frank, you've done some big shows but you've also done your absolute bollocks. Anyone can do that."
