    and its easy to bet on degale in this fight, people are singing degales praises a little bit too soon if you ask me, i think we might find out a thing or two
    I enjoyed the first press conference but the repetitive stories and childish insults are getting a bit tedious now.
    i havent really watched that many so maybe i would get bored of it too

    its been a while since we have had an all british fight with so much riding on it tho, and one that is so close to call, ok degale is the favourite but you wouldnt put your house on it

    Agreed. DeGale's chin hasn't been tested yet so will be interesting as it's a certainty that Groves will land early.

    It's not like Booth/Hayemaker to take risks like this unless they're confident they'll pay off. I can't see them being so willing to make this fight now if they're aren't confident Groves can win. I think this should be a good fight and a lot closer than some think, though I do favour DeGale because I think he's technically very good and Groves has some serious flaws defensively.

    I do think that DeGale's becoming repetitive with his childish insults. I really don't think he's comfortable playing this arrogant trash talker because he never seems convincing when he's coming out with it all.

    You sure about that?

    I dont think hardly anyone gives Groves a shot, Boxing monthly did a little poll with boxing trainers I think it was 27/3 in De Gales favour, I think De Gale is far to polished for Groves at this stage he is also 1/4 - 1/5 on it is harldy a 50/50 on paper mate.

    Agreed Skel. I think De Gale is going to win comfortably and the bookies do too. This is not a 50/50 fight at all. If Groves wins it would be quite an upset!

    Hahaha!

    That was fucking brilliant! James De Gale "Err....."chew, chew, swallow, chew, swallow, blink, chew, blink, look around, look at the floor, fidget.

    Even Warren felt the need to but in when George was hammering on him by saying "I trained with the seniors after I beat James but he came back and trained with 12 year olds"

    George is very confident in himself and to me De Gale is shitting a brick that hes gonna lose his unbeaten record to Groves of all people

    That brings me to another point, Groves has actually faced and wan in good fashion against an unbeaten opponent. James hasnt been tested yet

    I presume you are on about Kenny Anderson? Did you watch the fight by any chance, won in good fashion? He was close to being stopped he was stumbling around like a drunk at one stage, I think Anderson is decent and would beat Smith, but come on mate to call that winning in good fashion behave yourself!!!

    I gotta agree, it was not in good fashion. However, i dont think Degale would have come through that fight in George's position. Also, them body shots that Groves stopped Anderson with will also stop Degail if landed. All 'if's and but's' though.

    Behave myself?

    Go on then. How is Groves stopping Andreson midway through a fightnot winning in good fashion?

    What has De Gale done that is any where near as impressive?

    De Gale is shitting his ugly long horse face knickers and uncle Warren is having to talk for him! I bet Warren is already worrying about the effort hes put in to promoting Red Rum.
