No time soon... can't see DeGale working with Fwank and Groves is propelling himself in to a world title fight. Rematch is at least two years away

Will there ever be a rematch, there both pretty inactive but Groves is on the better road to a title shot than DeGale. Also with Warren and Degale having a bust up. That may influence the rematch, if attempts were made to try to get it.

The Groves v DeGale outcome had repercussions for me.
Groves has fought like he's on the up ever since whilst DeGale although he's remained victorious they've been tough arduous affairs. Is it a psychological thing or training regime, maybe Booth reads an opponent better. DeGale seems to have to grind a win out

Degale has clearly lost momentum which is vital in the sport.i concur that groves has been looking on the rise since.

Before the Groves fight I didn't think De Gale had the right trainer, the fight confirmed it for me, and the fights since have consolidated the confirmation. I strongly think James should be considering his options, but it is comfortable there for him. Perhaps too comfortable.

:TU:

Groves showed in their fight that he/his team have a much better in-ring IQ than Degale/his team. that dynamic has just carried on being played out, IMO.

I believe Groves and Degale will fight, if they both keep winning, in the next 18 months.
Groves by KO this time.

I think there's something in that, Degale hasn't looked anything like he did prior to Groves. A rematch might be really good for him mentally, a new trainer wouldn't hurt either.
I agree on both counts

Yeah that's true, Groves tactics caught DeGale/Team off guard they thought he'd come in trying to knock DeGales block off.

I think DeGale has become inactive due to his dispute with Warren. Mick Hennessy mentioned he wanted him fighting again in December.

Though his activity might be the problem. Hennessy tends to be more interested in milking the Channel Five cash cow at the moment. DeGale is more likely to defend his Euro title against people in shopping centres and town halls for the next couple of years, rather than moving up and getting legitimate world title shots.

Dream on.
I don't think they will meet each other in the ring, unless they both hold SIGNIFICANT titles, and in the case of De Gale I can't see it.
