    But yeah, I'd love to see that rematch aswell whilst the Cobra goes and lives his dream in Vegas.

    I'm not too sure, I do lean on Groves in all honesty although I thought Degale won the first one. Groves has improved since then though, Degale I don't see too much improvement.
    No improvement tonight?

    You know I'm not one for over-exaggerating but he looked like a prime James Toney fighting off the ropes for that knockdown

    Seriously though....I think if Groves doesn't run like he did the first time, he gets sparked out.

        I think he looked like he was punching harder but technically I don't.

        His technique is so poor IMO.

        I don't see Degale stopping Groves and I do expect Groves to get on his bike again.

          You know, I quite liked Degale before. I rooted for him heavily for the Groves fight.

          I just don't think he has much potential so it's turned me off abit. I don't mind the guy as a person, just not too big on him in the ring.

            Dan told me in a PM that DeGale looked like Toney vs Iran Barkley.

            True story

              As if.

              Ay, I don't know how and why but I do think Froch is mandated to fight Degale next.

              Atleast that's the vibe I'm getting.

              Just watched a video that IFLTV just uploaded and Hearn is saying that Froch would likely have to vacate his IBF to fight Chavez in Vegas.

              Not too sure but that's what it seems to me.

                I know I kid around

                But DeGale does get cut a lot for a guy who's supposed to be a defensive fighter.....was that cut from a punch?

                He is a bit half Calslappy with his shots, isnt he?

                  Not sure, but yeah he does mark up a lot.

                  Definitely slaps with his punches, seems to be hitting harder though now. Was punching hard today.
