I've not seen him do it since, but he does have it in him for sure.

Hope not, unless it's in rounds 7-12

Groves shoulder will fail him. Callum wins inside the distance, sadly.

Very worried about Groves’s injury not being fully healed.

Big worry is the shoulder... but let’s hope they’re not turning up knowing that it’s going to go...

A fit Groves should win this, and safe to say Smith is going to get hit harder than he’s ever been hit before

Smith got his jab working and the straight shots, making George work but Groves is getting closer with his own shots

Rd 2 early Smith starting to land the right hand. But later on he gets sucked into closer exchanges and Groves lands some rights of his own and body shots. 20-19 Smith

Very tasty round.

Thought George was about to be in big trouble but responded well. Smith remaining composed but its pretty even so far if not in rounds won but as a fist fight between two men. Neither taken control
