    Man can it backfire on you any worse? Whoever handles his contracts should be fired immediately. If you actually THOUGHT a few moves ahead you would realize this could be a very possible outcome for Groves.

        No I think it's the usual 75-25 but 85-15 when the non champ is not the top rated challenger

          Yeah that could be true. Either way, its the IBF rules. People on here are talking like Groves has been victimised - it's the rules dummies.

            So by the way people are talking Groves will get less than the £1m he was offered already.....but why is 15% of the purse necessarily going to be less than £1m? Anyone know what the purse was for the first fight?

              Matchroom offered him 25%.

                Cheers - I thought the £1m was just a flat offer. Saw Frotch's brother ****ing on about the 25% on twitter but presumed he was just on the wind up.

                  Standard what? Standard scam/rip off? After paying all taxes, fees, and expenses he'll end up with what 4%. No thanks says a smart man. Who is the IBF to make this rule anyway? Who needs a belt anyway? Let these two fight an unsanctioned fight and split the purse. That's the way to do it.

                    It's in the IBF Rules. Should they change their rules AGAIN just for George Groves? Why are you acting like Groves is being victimised?
