I thought maybe they would make Groves fight Oosthuizen and then I read this
Thomas Oosthuizen crashes bicycle, dropped by promotor - ESPN
So that probably ain't gonna happen. I do not think that Froch will want to lose the chance of redeeming his bruised reputation and neither him or Groves will want to miss the chance of such a big pay day and an opportunity for what could be the biggest domestic boxing match ever. The stipulations that Groves is unhappy with may well be an attempt by Hearn trying to tie Groves into a promotional deal he does not want and I can understand his point, but Hearn will make him money and probably is the best guy for the Job in the UK. While I applaud Groves trying to be independent and go it alone there is only so much you can do without big money leverage and TV deals behind you.
