    He threw some good combos, but he's another one who thinks hes a prime RJJ. He keeps his lead left low, and he can get away with it against these guys hes currently fighting cuz hes quicker. I think its a lazy habit, some say it helps their speed, but I think it helps em get knocked out.

    I hope Groves builds himself up for a big domestic showdown with Degale.

    Hard to tell really if he has the potential to become world class. So far I think De Gale looks better but I thought Groves was very good at the MEN in april. I think his being rocked on saturday was down to him being caught cold and underestimating his opponent. Also nerves could have played a part, it was a big thing for him to fight in Vegas for the first time as it would be for any non american fighter.

    It'll be interesting to see where he is in 12 months.

    I think his wobble looked worse than it was, more a balance thing.

    Anyway, he will probably learn more from that one fight than DeGale has in any of his so far. Be nice if they meet at Brit title level let alone world-class.

    I think De Gale will be the real deal, Groves will fade away.

    I also think De Gale has had tougher fights recently

    Tougher fights?

    So far Groves has fought the dangerous Paul Samuels, Adamu for the Commonwealth title and fought in America against a guy that's recently mixed it with Dirrell and Lemieux.

    DeGale ain't been clipped yet. And even his win over Horton took a few knocks when Patrick Mendy took seconds to beat him in prizefighter.

    Ummm, maybe your right.

    I still think De Gale looks more classy and has more skills.
