DeGale vs Groves - Predictions / Hopes

I want Groves to win, but I think De Gale will win.

Degale is on another level he'll make this fight look easy :boxing: Groves will bounce back from this and hopefuly make a decent run...Chunky is just too good at the moment for any of the domestic guys apart from Froch. I dunno about making it look easy but yu can't help but favour DeGale for the win but I hope Groves prediction of "You my friend are gonna look like a horse falling at Cheltenham come May 21st" is the case :D

quality mate, going on the lash with Ricky Hatton! I met him at a Tom Jones gig of all things in the MEN, only had a quick snap, should have offered him a goldfish bowl and might have got to hang about with him :D

I assume that's you in the pic with DeGale? Did you have a conversation with him? If so was he as daft then as well? :D Great boxer, just tickled me how child like he was in that encounter! Just noticed you're from Manchester mate... safe, our kid! Yer that was at the Khan - Barrera fight, said the usual crap nothing that i can remember that was weird. The best one was when I was drinking with Ricky Hatton before the Mayweather fight. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=755&pictureid=6482 He was wasted and it was September he'd spilt drink all down his front and was dancing on the tables drinking fishbowl sized cocktails. Aye Manchester born and bred son!!!!

That one was a classic :) I assume that's you in the pic with DeGale? Did you have a conversation with him? If so was he as daft then as well? :D Great boxer, just tickled me how child like he was in that encounter! Just noticed you're from Manchester mate... safe, our kid!

It was quality viewing DeGale "he beat me fair and square" Groves "so I beat you fair and square?" DeGale "no" Groves "but you just said I beat you fair and square" DeGale "I got mixed up on my words bro" That one was a classic :)

Degale by tko, shame really as George is much more intelligent & a nicer person. Did anyone see the Sky Sports ringside where Degale basically couldn't even string a sentence together or remember what he was on about the whole time, made himself look a right gimp to be fair.

this is what I am hoping for, I hope this is just the start of an exciting saga Yeah same i hope they fight two or three times. But i think De gale will win all of them that would be the problem....

De gale will win and then they will fight later on in their careers i believe maybe Groves challenging him when De gale wins a world title :) this is what I am hoping for, I hope this is just the start of an exciting saga

I want Chunky to win and think Chunky will win. Groves is a cvnt who's tried to make a career off DeGolds name after his Olympic exploits.

Degale has shown very good skills thus far in his short pro career, it will continue when he KOs groves there is no escaping this, he demolished Smith ... while Groves showed some serious naivety in the Anderson outing, but came back to finish it off & I was particularly impressed with Groves when he fought Adamu DeGale has to be the clear favourite but I think Groves will run it a lot closer than some are giving him credit for

want the ginger to put manners in him and knock him out, think De Gale will get a late stoppage win. Hopefully Im wrong

Degale has shown very good skills thus far in his short pro career, it will continue when he KOs groves

DeGale has shown more improvements than Groves, I think he wins the fight. I personally think this fight could've been built up into a bigger one when more is at stake even though two prospects fighting each other is always a good thing.

bumped up for the UK day shift

I think Degale will win. I just want the better man to win, if Groves shows up and demonstrates a new level and wins, thats cool, if both guys are what we think they are and degale wins, cool. diplomatic ... I like it! I want Groves to win but obviously in style, as I have said before I hope to see both fighters progress after this bout and fingers crossed they meet again iat world level

i'm rooting for Groves but think DeGale will win.
