I think he deserves it really. It was always either him or James DeGale. Kevin Mitchell could have easily been in there in my opinion coming back from his loss against Katsidis in tremendous style beating an undefeated fighter by stoppage.

yes i think groves deserved it, he was a 3-1 unmderdog against DeGale with no one giving him a chance to win

Completely agree. DeGale may have won the last few rounds but it was just short of winning the fight for me. No doubt though that had DeGale started how he ended, I'm sure Groves would have lost the UD. Rematch is up, Groves should learn from what happened in the second part of the fight.
