He's got every right to be cheeky after all the shit hurled his way from fans and more imprtantly Groves himself.

If Arum wants an easy road to a title then he should have his kid fight Bika or Abraham. He's already had Jr magically placed as mandatory in both Orgs.
Firstly , Groves didn't hurl any shit at him , he just spoke as he saw it , and in the 1st fight he more or less proved everything he said. in the 2nd punch he got caught with a great shot in a close fight.
Secondly, yeah he can gloat, but it only takes away from his achievement . For example, all he's done is beat a decent british fighter , hardly grounds for putting him in the HOF! I have no problem in him fighting Chavez , I think he should. He's coming to the end of his career and he should quite rightly look after his own interests, but Degale has (finally) got into a mandatory position on merit , so don't start with the "he's not worthy of getting in the ring with someone as brilliant as me" crap. that's how it all started with Groves.
all he has to say is "I've fought Groves twice because the IBF wanted me to, beat him twice and now I feel I deserve a voluntary." simples!
