    Hate to agree but I'm not buying the Groves hype yet either. He has only beaten DeGale (arguably) and a well past prime Glen Johnson.

    Froch dropping him in sparring in the second round probably tells the real story (I know it was sparring but still...).

      Watch at the end when he was facing the ropes you see his trainer come up the steps waving the towel.

          Hearn hit it on the head with that talk of the moment when the ref is in the middle waiting for the bell to ring, and both fighters waiting to come out for round 1.

          Not a crazier feeling.

            And that's all you heard from that sparring session?

              He probably isn't there yet. Doing all the right things though. Travelling for good sparring etc. Should drop the cap but credit to him.

                Accommodating US television (fair enough, 11:30pm UK time isn't too bad).

                      After the fact, nothing was thrown in the ring, don't know how that ref still has a job.
