    Should be good fight as both are genuine tryers. The experience and weight says Groves but I believe that Junior has more. I see a true star emerging and Groves will be the opponent to prove it. I watched Ronnie Davis's face when explaining how good he thinks Junior is. He convinced me.


    There is experience, strength and skill, then there is that rarest of qualities, magic.

    Is that the same Ronnie Davis that is there just to "Apply Vaseline and carry the bucket"? or the Ronnie Davis that is told by his Boxer to "Stop Talking" when he was offering advice in between rounds? I can him being very convincing .

    Good article smashup did not realise Gutknecht can no longer function normally and is a mute and in a wheelchair.

    Groves is very funny. I would not mind him winning, I like the guy.

    Eubank snr is busy pissing people off.....
    Pretty shitty way to hype a fight

    TYSON FURY has branded Chris Eubank a “disgrace” and accused him of trying to use Nick Blackwell’s horror injury to promote his son’s fight with George Groves.

    Well I'm pissed off, I thought this was on this weekend, that's scuppered my plans.

    Also it surprised me when I realised there is only 12 months age gap between groves and Jr, I thought Groves was 32 or 33, he's only 29, seems like he's been around for years whilst Jr seems like a novice still.

    Oh dear, sometimes I wish JR would tell his dad to shut the fuck up

    Got my bet on, couldn't wait, surprisingly Bet365 have Groves at 13/8 and Eubank at 4/9.

    There are a lot of young hipsters out there on the EU bandwagon. If you're backing a groves win you may be better waiting if all this yoof money is going on EU, you might even get 2/1 by fight night for Groves.

    Just found out this fight is on ITV sport! Excuse ignorance, have booked it by registering, you can have it delivered by sky by giving your card number and pin for a one-off payment, but ITV sport tell you they will retain your payment details (in my case paypal). I tried to get it delivered on amazon firestick (keep away from the missus strictly) but if you do that you have to register with another ITV company that signs you up for a fiver a month unless you explicitly cancel after the fight.

    Not easy to navigate but I guess most of you will already know this, except................. Master

    I do live near Windsor, where we are now well known for our allegedly homeless street beggars. If Master wants a day begging in Peascod Street Windsor I will gladly pick him up in the evening and take him to my house to watch the fight, and give him a bed for the night, providing he turns his begging stash into beer.

    Only joking...............
