He's got dreads like the Predator, mush!

[Neil Gee]

Lol, yeah, the world needs characters like him.

[Final round]

Carl frogarty you gotta love Frank Bruno

I thought I was hearing things!

He's a character that's for sure. They did their best to talk up Junior, but with that kind of exposure on offer, you can't blame them. Liked how he brought Sebastian in at the end as well.

[King Tubby]

Junior comes across quite well in interviews, more than he does in the ring.

[ILikeBeer]

Chunky will show his true class here

DeGale has class?

[adamwillan]

Eubank was basically suggesting there that the fight is Groves and Froch is shot.

DeGale has class?

As a fighter - yes.
As an individual - Debatable.

Although I understand he is after the publicity surely it would make more sense for Eubank Snr to be talking about his son fighting people in the same division he's in

Whatever you think of him he's pure entertainment!

At this point Chris Bubank Jr needs to be looking at the British title as his first goal. Everything else comes later...

[Final round]

That ring is the size of a postage stamp in that stadium

[ILikeBeer]

I am just going for a slash.

David Haye quote:

"I can only see this fight going two ways, with two possible outcomes. Either Carl grinds George down and stops him in the later rounds or George wins on points. If had to bet £100 pound, I would split the money - put £50 on George to win on points and Carl to win by stoppage"

- David's speaking a lot of sense.

Is Wembley completely full? I see lots of reds empty seats.

Yeah, it looks full. People go to the toilet, go for some food etc...

(apart from the top couple of rows of seats, they are empty). That's maybe way it's not 90,000...

[Crease]

CCCCCOOOOMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Crease]

The atmosphere is intense!!!!

[McCannW14]

You sure it's just a slash?

[Neil Gee]

A lad at work said he's changed his mind and he wants Froch to win because George has been mouthing off too much. I haven't heard any of that so I'm still on George's side.

Logically Froch is a little older than last time but Grove's should be that much closer to his prime, so this fight should only go one way, but Froch has never been stopped so we have to start with the assumption that Groves is going to have to dominate for 12 rounds. Can he do it? Has he learned to hold when he's hurt? I don't know, but I hope so.

[Datsue]

Oh my dog I've fallen asleep & woken up in a Carry On themed Klitschko ring-walk...

[Crease]

What's Groves' entrance music - it's Kasabian isn't it?

[Crease]

C'mon The Cobra!!!!
