Would have loved to see a fight between the two - has he moved up to LHW permanently?

I didn't know he was until Datsue mentioned it, I was hoping he stayed at SM, as it's getting to be the hottest division in boxing right now - maybe that's why he's moving up - having a big punch is not much use against Carl Froch, and you can't even hit Andre Ward.

Fast becoming my favourite fighter to watch.

I am a fan of the GG!

:yay:

As he matures he will be a very solid fighter.

Looks like he is developing power. Looks very big at the weight too.

He is a big SM.

Imo, he is ready for Froch now.

True, right now he can compete, but if he carries on the way he is then he will be a good longstanding champion.

If his chin holds up, we have a potential P4P fighter.

Groves might win a paper title but that defence and chin aren't enough for world level.

In the fight last night he did look very fast and skilled. I could see him giving froch/kessler trouble.

Not sure about that. He has a good jab and movement, plus power and good speed.

Froch is coming towards the end and GG is coming into his own, imo.


12 months and it's a 55/45 fight in CF favour.

GG vs GGG, in a few years' time, would be good to watch.

Always really liked George Groves, thought he would go on to be good from when I first saw him in a very early fight on a Haye undercard. But he has improved a lot more and certainly more quickly than I expected.

Who do you reckon they get him in with next? Sounds like they will probably try and get him out once in the summer and then I'm guessing they would go for Steiglitz in the Autumn?
