Didn't mean to be offensive. I apologize if I was. I meant from the British Isles etc.
Is it because there is a big risk that the defeated boxer would lose a lot of appeal? That doesn't make sense though because DeGale and Groves fought and DeGale maintains a strong fan base.
By the way, why has Groves only fought once in 2012?
[QUOTE=Rantcatrat;1099486]Not at all pal; though there are those would take offence at any affiliation with the UK
I think that from an Irish perspective we'll always hang our hopes on one guy. if one beats the other the less fortunate fighter will become far less appealing.
But funnily enough, I think they soon need to fight each other for one to gain relevance and regain the faith of the public.

I think Degale lost a lot of fans with his behaviour in the build up to the Groves fight then he lost. He hasn't been too active lately either.
Groves has only fought once this year against Francisco Sierra, he looked very good but suffered a bad cut. Hopefully he can get out before the end of the year. He has been stripped of his british title as he has not defended against Kenny Anderson in the required time.
**Degale has now signed with Hennessy, not sure how he will benefit from that but couldn't see warren doing him any favours in the near future.
