    He may be popular in London, where you actually see his fans but hes not that well known a boxer. He doesnt get any exposure other than on sky.

    If I were a promoter id have my fighters on talk shows and even cameos on the soaps, like Eastenders or Coronation Street, just so the general public become familiar with their names and may take an interest in watching them fight.

    I see that Warren is desperately trying to recreate a rivalry like Benn v Eubank between Groves and DeGale but unless non sky subscribers get to see them in their build up, its not going to happen. People arent going to go out of their way to watch them if they have no clue who they are.












    David was on Celeb Millionare over Xmas......

    No-one watched it but me but nonetheless he was on it

    Long gone are the days of Benn - Eubank etc.

    Groves v Degale is a cracking matchup but again joe public knows nothing about either.

    For the record in that one...Degale schools him

    He's been on these shows numerous times plus LOADS of others. Can you get anymore mainstream in Britain? I don't think so.

    ....all the better then, because Wlad's going to beat the everliving crap out of him.

    Well, quite obviously I havent seen those programmes because they arent mainstream.

    Real mainstream would be to have him walk on in Coronation street, that has the biggest audience but his promoter is too thick to think of something so simple!

    He should be out here at Booths Gym in North Cyprus soon running up and down the Troodos Mountains.

    As far as i'm concerned he's one of the UK's better known faces as a sportsman.

    Degale won Olympic Gold but i'd bet a shitload Hayes better known than him.

    Could we say the same if Khan had just won the Silver and Haye was where he was now?

    Plus he's all over Fight Night's new Playstation game

    I'd say he's doing alright

    AS for Groves-DeGale. WE should just be thankful that they will fight. For every possible Benn-Eubank there are a dozen rivalries that never happen because of "politics" and waiting for them to become bigger names.

    Benn-Eubank and days of 15 million terrestrial TV are LONG gone.

    Big shame but your bang on mate...Miss those days

    Who you picking out of Groves v Degale then.

    Groves has been holding his own with Dirrell recently in Sparring over in the US


    "Last week I told you all that George Groves would be checking in and sparring Andre Dirrell, and both guys have been getting on like a house on fire – in and out of the ring. Their sparring sessions are bringing everybody to a standstill in the gym and whenever those two step inside the ring it becomes a must-see event. Andre is starting to get his groove back and George is more than holding his own. They are sparring some really ferocious rounds at the moment and it's great to see."

    They are the MOST watched talkshows in the ENTIRE country!!! How the fuck is that not mainstream?

    Also - Haye is his own promoter. So you think he's failed because he hasn't secured a starring role in Corrie?

    Was well impressed with JD last time out and really think he'll tame then school him..

    If he can take a whack off Groves he''ll c8nt him off in Style with ease.

    Slick as f*ck defensively is JD

    DeGale has looked real class in last couple of fights. Groves defense and chin has started to look a bit dodgy. However, he still has the am win over DeGale and clearly won the war of the words.

    I think DeGale will win. But not certain. Might have a couple of bob on Groves if the odds are right

    i hope Haye pulls this off, I was secretly hoping Vitali would fight him as Haye stands a better chance of outboxing him. Wlad has a pile driver of a jab and his defence has improved so do not think Haye will get through and if he does try he is liable to get knocked out.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Totally disagree.

    Haye has a better chance against Wlad than he does against Vitali.

    Haye should be thanking his lucky stars that Wladimir is fit because, if he hasn't, Vitali would be the one shattering Haye's dream of unifying the division.
