I think this whole 'rivalry' is bullshit and is being acted out to make this fight seem like they are both going to war.
Amateurs means fuck all when it comes to the pro ranks. I won't even waste my time giving examples of fighters who lost to other fighters in the amateurs only to smash them in the pros.
DeGale's insults/bad boy persona is so transparent. By all accounts, he is a decent lad outside of the ring and is just trying to build up this character to raise his profile even more. He is trying to be like Floyd Mayweather in front of the cameras but it just doesn't work for him.
Groves seems to be winning each of the 'rounds' in front of the cameras but, at the end of the day, DeGale is the superior boxer and will outbox him. Will probably stop him late on, too. Groves has too many flaws in his defence and they will be exposed unfortunately.
This fight is pure 50/50 and these press confrences mean nothing. James ain't fazed and George ain't fazed but i do feel for George to win he may need to get James out early.
It's unfair to compare them after the Smith and Anderson fight as for me George would have got the 'sitting duck' out of there quicker than James did as i believe George is the bigger puncher. Would Anderson have put James down? Probably not but that happened becasue George made a stupid mistake in trying to slug him, Something James would not have done. However them body shots George used to stop Anderson will also break down James if he lands them.
Personally, i'll be there on the night and just hope for a decent tear up.
i dont think its fixed (or an act) but even if it was i am enjoying it, arent you?
it's made it bigger than the world title fight that is topping the bill
and its easy to bet on degale in this fight, people are singing degales praises a little bit too soon if you ask me, i think we might find out a thing or two

It's not like Booth/Hayemaker to take risks like this unless they're confident they'll pay off. I can't see them being so willing to make this fight now if they're aren't confident Groves can win. I think this should be a good fight and a lot closer than some think, though I do favour DeGale because I think he's technically very good and Groves has some serious flaws defensively.
I do think that DeGale's becoming repetitive with his childish insults. I really don't think he's comfortable playing this arrogant trash talker because he never seems convincing when he's coming out with it all.
You sure about that?
I dont think hardly anyone gives Groves a shot, Boxing monthly did a little poll with boxing trainers I think it was 27/3 in De Gales favour, I think De Gale is far to polished for Groves at this stage he is also 1/4 - 1/5 on it is harldy a 50/50 on paper mate.
I give Groves 2 chances..........Slim and None, and slim just left town

Hahaha!
That was fucking brilliant! James De Gale "Err....."chew, chew, swallow, chew, swallow, blink, chew, blink, look around, look at the floor, fidget.
Even Warren felt the need to but in when George was hammering on him by saying "I trained with the seniors after I beat James but he came back and trained with 12 year olds"
George is very confident in himself and to me De Gale is shitting a brick that hes gonna lose his unbeaten record to Groves of all people
That brings me to another point, Groves has actually faced and wan in good fashion against an unbeaten opponent. James hasnt been tested yet
I presume you are on about Kenny Anderson? Did you watch the fight by any chance, won in good fashion? He was close to being stopped he was stumbling around like a drunk at one stage, I think Anderson is decent and would beat Smith, but come on mate to call that winning in good fashion behave yourself!!!
