    Bellew due to all the reasons already mentioned.

    Kell Brook comes across as very whiney.

    Come on lad, Groves dislocated his shoulder in that last round!

    Frank Warren. A man who will happily watch a man risk his life, and then pull a financial fast one to avoid paying him. Utterly reprehensible behaviour. I don't know how anyone gives him the time of day after what he's done.

    Eubank had a badly cut eye too, his vision was completely obscured for the majority of the fight. These things happen fact is Eubank took him to the brink. The fact that Groves has shown so much respect to Eubank afterwards and throughout the Degale-Eubank fight week shows that Eubank did something in that fight with him to earn his respect.

    Can somebody who has never won at world level be considered world level? Not in my view. The only reason he got into the Saunders fight at all is because Saunders gassed and Groves absolutely schooled Eubank. Jnr looked ridiculous in there that night.

    British level boxing ability, world level chin/stamina.

    Groves took Eubank to school in that fight. He didn't really show him any respect straight after the fight when he was posing and taking the ****.

    I think what you have seen last week was probably more of a wind up towards Degale than anything.

    I'd say Eubank has potential to be world level once he finishes honing in on the fundamentals.

    The way he fought in the Degale fight was a good start.

    He also needs to learn to keep his composure and not allow his rage to consume him.

    His rage is a weapon but he needs to learn when to pick his shots when he has his opponent in trouble.

    Once he is better coached and continues with his progress he can become a truly elite fighter capable of dispensing the likes of Callum Smith and Billy Joe Saunders.

    Froch after his comments on DeGale this week.

    Hearn for effectively taking a double helping of rights fees for cards now (totalling more than £300k per card on average) and putting on one sided showcases on the majority of the Saturday Night Fight Nights. Basically taking the money giving the absolute minimum he has to for Sky to keep involved.

    I don't have fighters I can't stand, but I do have fighters where I just seem to miss out on the excitement that seems to infect everyone else. Actually for me Joshua is in that category. When I see his mush pop up on the usual youtube channels in an interview I'm 'meh' and don't bother to watch. I just can't muster up even a bit of interest.

    The Eubanks and the Furys interviews are unbearable, just so cringey.
