    Groves will blow Stieglitz away. as long as he uses the jab to set everything up.

    great performance from Robert tonight, but he will not last anymore than 4 with Groves. Stieglitz is easy to hit, so that doesn't bode well for him in that one. he knew that he could come out fast for Abraham with not much coming back. he will not do anything like that against Groves as it's way too risky against some who hits as hard as he does. he'll be cautious because he knows Groves will fight fire with fire and could be taken out with one shot.

    George is ready now for that fight. he should try and get it as soon as he can. trust me, George is far too good for him.

    Abraham would of been a more difficult fight with his high guard. Stieglitz? no problem.

    nah, Groves has a good engine. he went full out against Johnson for twelve. but don't worry, it won't go anywhere near twelve rounds. Groves would have him out of there early. put money on it.

    I can't pick one. Gonna lean toward Steiglitz based on experience, but Groves is legit.

    If Steiglitz uses the bumrush technique I go with Steiglitz. If he tries to box, I go with Groves. If it's in Germany, Steiglitz all the way.

    Good fight.

    Groves stops him late IMO and fulfills the prophecy of my screen name (whilst simultaneously rendering it out of date & redundant).

    Groves has good footwork and has a decent punch.
    I think Groves boxes for long periods and gets to Steiglitz late on, in a fight where he has to concentrate all the time its in action.

    With Steiglitz combinations and DeGales fast hands and combinations, I think that would be interesting also.

    Groves

    People overrate Abraham, but it will be close, no way either man beats the other man clear. But Steglitz is not a big puncher & groves will not stand there and be a practice target like Abraham, but i do suspect his chin a bit. But i still fancy Groves maybe by stoppage.

    Groves has the Dark Lord in his corner. Don' underestimate the dark side of the force.

    Groves power is very overrated! Who did he stop till now? His best win is against old johnson or not? and degeale. Groves is open as **** when he punches! Also he is open as **** after he punched is combination! Stands there and admires his work... no wonder he got dropped already!
    Stieglitz did hurt AA very bad! Never seen this guy hurt like that! Also Stieglitz is the first guy who stopped AA! So who has more power Stieglitz or Groves?
    I dont think Groves can handle Stieglitz work rate. Also Groves never has been in the ring with an strong opponent like Stieglitz!
    I really dont now why some people here are so sure that Groves would win this fight! Also that they think he could stop Stieglitz....:patsch
