Not just you master but all of a sudden Groves is thought of as world class and I dont know why.

He tried to blitz Johnson in the first round and didnt really put a dent in him, he also got hurt himself in that same round!

I dont thnk Groves is anywhere near world class and until he stops trying to fight like Haye, its not going to happen. What are you all basing him doing any better against Bika than Periban did?
Groves and De Gale are not world class but given a couple of fights will have the confidence to beat him.
Confidence or not, Groves chin isnt great and if he gets the title shot at Bika he will get stopped. Bika was tired in that fight at the end because he throws every shot to rip your head off. We saw how many he landed and how good Peribans chin is. Groves gets caught, has a low defence and will not take Bikas pressure or power.

Chavez hasnt done anything in his career to say that he will stand a chance with fighters stronger than the ones hes already been struggling with.
The problem is that Bika didn't look great in his last fight either. It seems to me that Bika has lost some of the snap in his punches. Hats off to him though for finally securing a title. I can see the South African kid facing him if he wins this weekend on the undercard of Golovkin-Macklin. Groves and DeGale would be good fights with Bika too.
