We´re not getting it, but would you like an immediate Groves/Degale rematch?

    I really would.

    A big PPV night of grudge fights with Degale vs Groves and Clev vs Bellew as the double main event.

    As a DeGale fan i obviously want him to get revenge but i'm not bothered if both men push that's not a bad thing is it. Hopefully down the line it can be re-made but who knows what future holds for both men.

    Clev vs Bellew (Providing he beats Ovil) sells it for me anyways :lol:. Add a few decent fights and i won't begrudge paying £15 for it.

    Meh, why not, Bellews fights tend to be entertaining with some knockdowns here and there.

    I would like them to fight some other people first, see how it goes. Could mature into something even better.

    Nah man he should rematch Anderson: gives Anderson a shot at his belt, a chance to set his poor showing straight, a fight guaranteed to sell since GG is quite a fans favourite now and of course the story of the first fight.
    I do want to see the JDG return but I think Fwank wants none of it for the time being: JDG has to rebuild his confidence again

    No Degale needs bringing back down to earth. It will make him a better man and fighter... if he trully wants to be as great as he says

    Of course, nothing was decided with that fight, far too close and many thought Degale won.

    Cant see an immediate rematch anyway, Groves will continue to believe the razor thin decision makes him better but in the long run that will be proven inaccurate

    I dont think There should be right away either. After all the Crap he talked and Everyone Hyping him up and he goes out and loses... People wanted to See him in there With Pavlik, Bute, Froch etc... I told them people they are crazy! he gotta beat Groves first before you start talkin these super fights when he had only 10 pro fights!

    I remember him sayin he would beat PAVLIK easy... Haha

    Yes, I would. In fairness it was an incredibly close fight and domestically they are still each others best opponent. I think DeGale won but it is sad to see so many go against him because of his talk. I can understand it though. You get emotionally involved, just like the boxer does.

    Nevertheless, it is also great for Groves to go after the Lonsdale (Smith then Anderson) and DeGale can go after the European. Meet up again in 12-18 months. If they go 1-1 meet up again on the world level.

    Fighters should get used to fighting the best and not taking losses so badly.

    No. Don't want them burning each other out. Let them move on and potentially meet up down the line.

    I have always wanted Groves and DeGale to fight soon into their careers so I am glad we got the fight out of the way but now I want them to wait until something significannt is on the line for the rematch.
