Re: George groves vs Calum smith 28.9 in Saudi arabi
Looks like even Groves isn’t particularly happy about the location:
Re: George groves vs Calum smith 28.9 in Saudi arabi
i want the london boy, but the injury has pushed me back to my original pick smith which i still dont think we have seen the best of. iam just worried that wont ever see the best of callum
Re: George groves vs Calum smith 28.9 in Saudi arabi
Its getting closer!
I can't help thinking about the height and reach difference.
Each time I see the two of them together, I think Groves is a little up against it here

Smith goes to the top of the tree if he wins. Not writing Groves off, he's got all the nous to win but the injury ....
Cannot wait, gonna be a proper fight.

I know they do that in Vegas as they make the money back through gamblers, but not sure that would be the case in Saudi.bigjack wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 13:13Got them free more likely.keirw wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 10:47I imagine the 'crowd' will be made up of a few hundered wealthy elite types (oil tycoons, members of the royal family etc...).punchers chance wrote: ↑27 Jul 2018, 08:06 Is it true that alcohol is completely banned in Saudi?
I can't see this destination appealing much for anyone except hard core followers of each fighter.
All of whom would have paid an extortionate price for their tickets.
Is gambling even legal there?

On the other hand, it’s easy to imagine Groves smashing overhand right after overhand right onto that high & static chin of Smith

Yes and its not like smith uses his height and reach effectively. He should be a sitting duck for groves jab and right handBoxerbeetle wrote: ↑24 Aug 2018, 19:01On the other hand, it’s easy to imagine Groves smashing overhand right after overhand right onto that high & static chin of Smith

Funny they both attended the presser with black eyes. I wonder who they been sparring.

I'd end up with my head on a chopping block if I went there! I'd give it about 3 hours til I was running about with my balls out chasing camelsLondonirish wrote: ↑25 Aug 2018, 05:19![]()

Boxing is a business simple as that.
I am sure both fighters will be happy with their wages.
Got to add this will be a GREAT fight.

Groves would need a LHW to replicate the height and reach of Smith.
Anyone know who they have been sparing with?

Groves stablemate Chris Billam-Smith is pretty close to Callum Smith's dimensions...KiwiRider wrote: ↑29 Aug 2018, 16:40That crossed my mind too.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑25 Aug 2018, 06:29 Funny they both attended the presser with black eyes. I wonder who they been sparring.

The fcukers birch people in the street if they get caught having a cheeky larger, can't see them letting people have a punt, half the population can't even vote or walk the street in their own, it's a fcuking horrid country, stupid place for a boxing match.
Re: George groves vs Calum smith 29.8 in Saudi arabi
Where's Stuarty ?
He'd know just what to say, something like...
"I'd use her niqab to parachute spunk in to her eye slits like a horny postman with no arms"
but with cruder innuendos and making sense
