I'm telling you now Groves will be our Andre Ward

Post by Croydon1 »

He will go on and be a grinder but a special one. Not easy on the eye but he will go on and be one of the best under appreciated. Round 2 go on son

Not sure about the Andre Ward comparison and I think he's very good fan friendly fighter.

Not sure about the 'not easy on the eye' comment. I enjoy watching groves - has power and is a very good finisher.

He looks like a genuine contender. Great skills and his power makes him a danger to ANYONE

i just feel he looks great against the opposition he has now however when he steps it up he will be a grinder like ward, but a winner.... An under appreciated winner.... I'll take that though a as British boxing fan

He's not a grinder at all, he likes to box, move, trade. He's not a mauler.

This could have been a difficult fight... george did well with the jab and spoiled well on the inside and picked his punches well... 'not sure about ward' but definitely a contender in the SM...

Nothing like Ward at all, he's box office, exciting puncher and likes to mix it. Vunerable too, took risks in round before the beautiful finish, as other guy was winging bombs.
Great win.

:TU: think he was very easy on the eye, always enjoy watching him. Looks to be improving all the time, excited to see where he can go.

Adonis Stevenson, the Canadian - he looks the real hitter at SM, but Groves is right there with him - hell of a fight between those two.

Seriously are you positive about any british fighter? Because all I see off you are either unfunny snide comments or just straight up negativity.

Look for the positives you miserable fornicator.
