    I'm obviously sticking my head out a fair way by making that prediction.

    9 fights in and he's already got a first round KO of Paul Samuels, a shut out against a hard as **** German journeyman who'd whip some of our top 10 and an easy stoppage over Adamu who'd taken Froch 12.

    To my mind there aren't many British fighters in recent years who have been matched as well as he has..... and look how he's improved. Compare that to, say, Tony Jeffries.... he's fought a set of flat out bums with the odd exception, has not improved at all hardly and would probably have lost to Nathan King over 8 rounds instead of 6.

    Can't wait for him vs DeGale.... make the ****ing fight happen :hey

    I think Groves stops him.

    Too quick for Smith, Groves will pick him with 3/4 punch power combos finishing it off with heavy body punches.

    Think he could break Smith down.

    I quite like Smith, but I'm also firmly on the Groves bandwagon. Like most seem to think, I think Groves is too classy for Smith. Coupled with the fact that Smith is really quite easy to find and Groves will be much faster, I think Groves stops him. Groves TKO.

    I may be very wrong but I think Groves is easily the best prospect in the country. Can see him beating Smith easily and looking at world title shot within 2 years, hopefully battering Degale on the way.

    The next big thing in boxing.

    So do you think Groves would go 12 rounds with either of them?
