Froch correct me I am wrong wanted to better than Joe calzaghe. No.point
Fighting.bhop . for me it has to be either a rematch with ward or catch weight fight with kolavev.

I could see him beating adonis Stephenson but ward or kolavev would be career defining fights.

Not fighting Kovalev doesn't tarnish Frochs record one bit IMO. If Kovalev wanted the fight that badly (don't think its on his radar tbh) he could move down to SMW.

My birthday - nice present.
Boom that's the weekend I'm out there for my brother in laws stag do, 3 days before my birthday and 4 days before my wedding anniversary.

I wonder what I may ask for from the wife. Just need to convince 10 non boxing fans(although 5 came to Wembly)

That's going to be painful, aint it?

I can see DeGale's 'witty' interviews in the build up to the fight.

"I don't like Ugly Groves. I don't like him cos, he's ugly and has a big nose. Did I tell you he's ugly? You see, it's a funny gag because he's ugly. Why is nobody laughing?"

:zzz:

If DeGale and Groves 2 gets made, I just hope Sky don't hype fight 1 as anything but a snooze fest.

I'll be cancelling my sky sports subscription up until the day before the fight.

I recall thinking that it was a decent fight. Not action-packed but skillful and competitive with some drama as Degale came on in the end but didn't quite get there officially.

It will be massively over hyped like usual, the build up is better than the fights it seems lately!

I tend to find the build up pretty dull. Why pretend that two boxers hate each other, when they clearly don't?
