Comments Thread For: Groves To DeGale: Don't Call Retirement Presser - No One Cares!

:lol1: i dont mind this at least it shows it wasnt manufactured rivalry. The back story to these two aswell made it a great rivalry, i would have liked to see a rematch a couple years ago though. I was a groves man but i think at one point degale might have beat him at his peak Yep, came to really like Groves post DeGale and in the build up to the Froch fight BUT I think the DeGale that fought Dirrell, Bute and Jack probably would have beat Groves, although Groves on his best night almost beat Froch.

No am speaking about boxers from my country. Didn’t speak about class or race. So not sure where you go that from. I didnt mention race, and by class i meant behaviour, not working class ect. Im from the UK too, just saying the *****iness here is no worse than elsewhere. I think Groves has revised hes comments on Degale.However Froch is Froch, he can't say anything without making it about himself.

Groves is just another Euro level fighter. Who exactly did he beat of note to be considered some top fighter? Eubanks and Degeale? Both Eubanks and Degeale are in the same boat, they are considered great by Euro standards but they also never done much but beat low level opposition. The standards that UK fans have for their fighters is very low and they consider their fighters ATG. Euro still consider Brook some ATG for beating one top fighter his whole career. You've really got it bad haven't you? Did some Brit or Euro make you cry in the past or something? No one considers any of these fighters to be anything other than good world class fighters. Nothing less, nothing more. But here you are bi5ching like you always do. No one has considered them great or ATG's. Put your panties on and shut up. Sick and tired of seeing 2 out of 3 posts from you saying something like this. Let the insecurity go.

I'd be interested in a retirement presser if Eloise shows up? https://media.giphy.com/media/X1aI800CRXLzi/giphy.gif Lol yet people have spence high up on the p4p list just for beating brook.... The eye test matters too

Some genuine dislike here from Groves, don't really see the point tbh, it's a changing of the guard in British super middleweight boxing.

Because you singled out UK fighters as if lack of class and poor sportsmanship is somehow a feature of the nation they belong to. Saying silly classless things is an international phenomena.

Who said anything about American fighters here? Who cares about America? What do that has to do with our boxers staying classy?

That was cold. But to Degale's credit, at least he didn't go out like this in his prime. http://cdn2.vox-cdn.com/imported_assets/2222439/Carl_Froch_VS__George_Groves_2_medium.gif Falling on his own leg like Tyan Booth would say.

Yeah US boxers arent like that are they.. Gervonta Davis gloats when Farmer gets shot, *****es at Charlo and Crawford, Oscar *****es everytime Floyd farts, yeah, much more classy..🤔 Who said anything about American fighters here? Who cares about America? What do that has to do with our boxers staying classy?

Groves taking a page out of the "Karl Froch book of being a salty hater" Yeah. Froch and groves really show how to handle competitors with class..... :nonono:

george groves is the prototypical pasty faced northern european Hey, thats an impressive case of racism you got there..

Groves now sounding like Froch, do we have any british fighter that is man enough not to be salty? You already have a W over Degale, move on..Gosh! British boxers are irritating me at the moment. Yeah US boxers arent like that are they.. Gervonta Davis gloats when Farmer gets shot, *****es at Charlo and Crawford, Oscar *****es everytime Floyd farts, yeah, much more classy..🤔

The standards that UK fans have for their fighters is very low and they consider their fighters ATG. Euro still consider Brook some ATG for beating one top fighter his whole career. This euro thing you got going on? Wtf?? Let’s straighten this out for you. Boxing comes from here, that is British through and through like it or not, we invented it, formed latter day rules WHICH are adhered to EVERYWHERE in the world including (probably) your beloved “America”. Furthermore, the first legitimate heavyweight champion was a Cornishman called bob fitzsimmons who knocked out the American top boy for the crown etc etc etc. The Eubanks are completely different, it’s just that like many other people you look at the father through the son. You dummy. NO AMERICAN of what they called elite wanted ANY part of Chris Eubank Snr either in the states or here in the greatest country in the world. In fact, the closest anybody even came to publicly saying they would fight him was James Toney and that never came to fruit because he was soundly beaten by Roy Jones junior. He defended his title 15 times and was unbeaten in 10 years also travelling to Germany..yes Germany and beating their top boy at the weight who was als at the time unbeaten but oddly, I didn’t see many Americans if any on his card..🤔 Nigel benn however, did jump across the pond and wipe the floor with EVERYONE they put in front of him and yes! That would be the same Nigel benn who mr eubank kod a little earlier. Kell brook? One top fighter?? Ahhhhh you mean Shaun porter...an “American” so predictable and clearly no going through is there. Listen, “yall voted for trump” that ALONE tells not just us English but EVERYONE you people cannot be taken seriously in anything you say or do as yall really pretty stupid.:crackhead

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! And the saint nailed it !!! bye bye you punk azz mo fo

Not a good look. Groves came out of the Froch argument looking better, he's now done what Froch did to him. Comes across as very classless and bitter It's a slightly different situation I think, as DeGale and Groves have known each other since they were like 10 years old... Dale Youth ABC, travelled to shows together, sparring together for years and years, and from there it grew into a proper rivalry between them when they had to meet in the ABA seniors. In contrast, Froch just comes across as petty, as he's got no real reason to hate on Groves.

😳 Carl Froch on James DeGale's retirement: “He was a great fighter. You’ve gotta have massive respect for him, but was he the best of the best? He wasn’t… If we’d met, I’d have been too strong for him. I’d have backed him up and absolutely smashed him to bits.” — Michael Benson (@MichaelBensonn) February 28, 2019 😬 Froch on DeGale: “He said a few things about how I retired rather than fight him. He lost to Groves, I knocked Groves out… He sucked his teeth at me after the weigh-in, but I straightened him out. He don’t wanna roll around on the cobbles with me.” — Michael Benson (@MichaelBensonn) February 28, 2019
