I was hoping Groves would shut this prick up, but he looked absolutely TERRIBLE in his last fight, fought like an absolute pure amateur. DeGale beats him if they fight, I just hope DeGale is ahead on all scorecards in the final round then gets KTFO with a lucky punch, and the same thing happens in the rematch.
Grooves's last 3 opponents are better than DeGale's next 3 opponents bcuz we know how Frank Bottler Warren works, he has been serving DeGale up with club fighters

Paul Smith is a very good opponent for a prospect with only 8 fights. De Gale isn't being protected.
Smith is a tough opponent in that I expect him to make life difficult for DeGale for 12 rounds. I can't see him coming close to winning, but all of that holding/mauling and rough style will good for DeGale to learn how to deal with that kind of style. He's shown himself to be good on the outside, be interesting to see how good his infighting is as I think he'll need to use it against Smith.
Groves has looked very flawed recently. I think Kenny Anderson was a bit underrated before they fought, but Groves showed that he lacks either the skill to outbox an aggressive puncher or the mentality to use those skills to avoid a brawl. Or both...
