    Groves all the way, whether he'll get the stoppage or not depends on the style he chooses to adopt in the fight, but I give Smith very little chance. I really really dont rate Smith whatsoever. He got a gift of a decision against an overweight Tony Quigley a couple years back. As I recall on this forum pretty much everyone thought he lost.

    I dont think Smith is a SM he would be better off at middle weight,I will go for Groves 10 rounds ko.

    Groves points decision or late stoppage.don't think smith should b boxing at super middle he looks very small for the weight

    Groves as long as he does not stand and trade. If he does Smith pulls off the upset and sparks him out.

    I'm heading up there in a couple of hours. I'd like to see Groves do a number on him but as someone's already said it depends on how he fights. If he boxes and gradually starts to up the tempo i can see a stoppage 8-10. If he gets drawn in to a fight and they stand toe to toe I still make Groves 60/40 favourite but it becomes a lot more dangerous.

    A lot of people keep saying Smith is small for the weight but he was British champ so he can obviously mix it there. For what it's worth Boxing News have predicted Groves to a win close hard fought decision.

    Have seen Smith fight live a couple times but don't know much about him. I haven't seen his last two easy fights but i saw him taken to school by Degale.

    Groves for me, Smith to much of a plodder at the weight.

    Yeah, Smith should have waited for a chance at 160. Ill be disappointed if Groves doesnt stop him.

    The one im looking forward to is Burns vs Katsidis. That will be a war from trhe start.

    Seems to be a unanimous point of view on here that I happen to agree with, Groves to win & Smigga should be fighting at MW not SM.

    Having to go out for a few hours so hoping to not miss any of tonight's action, Burns v Katsidis should be a little cracker!

    Just watching the undercard fights, at the moment its Steve Robinsons nipper. Have to say that Enzo is a good commentator, much easier on the ear than Bunce!
