    Boxing needs Tyson Fury.

    British elite hate him.
    He got lucky against a flat fighter and then ducked the rematch

    Come on Gamo,

    Nothing lucky about that fight.

    It was hard to watch but Tyson outboxed Wlad in a close fight.

    It was not that close and it was far easier time than AJ had with Wlad.

    I don't think AJ and Fury fought the same fighter. Klitschko looked so flat against Fury and he boxed with no urgency or fear in that fight. Against AJ he looked far more alive. Wlad would've beaten Fury in the rematch in my opinion and I think Tyson knew it so he got himself out of the fight.

    Fury would have beaten AJ on that same night..

    Wlad found it difficult with Tysons reach, height and movement.

    AJ is a far better fighter now but there is still flaws in his game.

    Tyson made the heavyweight divison exciting again and the belts are now spread all over the world.

    No one had the balls to fight Wlad including AJ and Wilder..Fury looks clumsy at times, but he made it happen.

    Groves is going to need to be perfect to beat Jr (and perfect is asking too much). He has a terrific jab with the right hand dissuader waiting behind it, however, Jr has now well and truly proven to me he is lethal/fearless/granite. To unleash combos like he does whilst going toe-to-toe with a big hard bastard takes massive balls and confidence in your strength/beard. The older and more experience he's gained the more these guys are coming off second best when trying to have it.

    Jr by KO. He has a tidy jab too when playing on the outside but overrall will prove too fit, strong, fast and accurate with his combos.

    That goes for Callum Smith too. If you're having a toe-2-toe war with Rebrasse/Skoglund good luck against Jr.

    Jr seems to also have his old mans chin..I am warming to Jr since the Abraham fight..he is improving all the time and lives the life of a fighter.

    Well all I can say is that I'm pleased everyone is joining the knee jerk bandwagon and I hope that gets reflected in the odds in the build up to the fight.
    Talk of Groves having to be perfect. What about Eubank? Doesn't he have to be perfect? And even then he still won't know because he has never fought anybody as good , slick, classy and powerful as Groves.
    I'm not saying Eubank hasn't improved or doesn't stand some sort of chance, but if he ends up being seen as the favourite, I think that might be ridiculous enough for me to have a little punt on Groves.
