Smigga beating Dodson for the British belt was brilliant, considering the circmumstances...yes the cards were harsh on Tony, but the right man won
Dilks and Dodson will still have plenty to offer...while Groves wins tonight and becomes a champ!
I wonder who last man standing will be???
Paul Smith...

If you dont get a shot at Magee, and there are no 'lucrative' International fights on the table - Ornelas, Sartison, Miranda, for example... would you fight Groves if you or he became mandatory for a belt the other held?

i do not agree that magee id a bit fragile..on what basis are we making this statement.
in their careers at the moment, in my humble ill informed opinion, then magee beats the lot of them bar froch !!

I've seen them all fight, and Groves looks the most impressive based on tonight's performance.

Groves, the lad needs to front crawl before he goes swimming with the sharks.
This fight with adamu is not formality. End of the day, i think you have to favour adamu in all aspects; title holder, bigger record and experiance, and he WILL hit groves back.
I would love to see groves in with dilks after this, though if successful, as dilks never lost the fight against adamu in a month of sundays and deserves the chance to win it as he did the first time, and would smash the granny out of groves
I feel it is unfortunately, Adamu was AWFUL in his last fight, no skill, no real desire to win just swinging wildly and hanging in tough to take the win, which I didn't think he deserved. Dilks won the fight but again, looked bad and had no real belief in himself - The post fight interview confirmed that.
Adamu will be a punchbag, the wild shots should never catch anyone of a decent ability and I feel Groves will blast as many shots as he can in as short a time he can - copying his idol Haye. Referee may jump in due to too much punishment but it WILL be interesting for one reason only. If Groves can do the 12 and if his chin holds up if somehow Adamu lands a lottery shot.
Adamu is nothing like the one that had a good go at Froch, and the Commonwealth title is there for the taking for any super-middleweight that can box for 12 rounds. I reckon referee jumps in around 5-6 and I feel Adamu is seriously being over-rated - along with Groves
;)

Ummmmm - that result of Groves spices things up a bit!!!
Over to my good scouse pals - I would be very interested in what they have to say.
Whilst Adamu is clearly not the fighter he was when he fought Froch - the manner in which Groves dismantled him is impressive for a fighter who was only in his 9th fight.

As I thought ... my good scouser pals not giving Groves any credit whatsoever and that is foolhardy to say the least.
bigdaddy in his last post states Adamu was P8ss - how about giving Groves credit where it is due.
If we were to look at all fighters records there are holes which can be picked at.
Groves was in his 9th fight -
scousers its time to wake up and smell the coffee!!! - Groves is a viable opponent for any British Super Middelweight !!!

Didn't watch the fight, in a caravan in wales with the family. My phones buzzing away with texts from non boxing mates
Like I said. Groves has got talent but adamu is awful, anyone that watched the Dilks fight could see that. Why you think hayemaker forced for the fight!?
With regards to the call out as someone asked, if I fought everyone that called me out or slagged me off I'd have more fights than buckley and a face like my mate spud.
I've said too many times, I'm going forwards not backwards. A kid with 9 fights that's just beat an over the hill, terrible past it fighter is a backwards step.
I'm off anyway, all the best boxrec ;)

Groves looked damn good, stoppage was to early tho, admau was not damaged or in danger so he should have been given the chance to continue.
Gotta big up Smigga on the prediction! How often is it you get a british champ on these boards offering honest opinions on himself and other boxers calling him out? Full respect to him, keeps things lively, keep it coming Smigga!

I give my honest opinion on Dilks as someone who has boxed with him from a junior and NO disrespect is intended trust me, just an honest opinion.

You are mistaken yes.

Magee is still a notch on my Lonsdale belt if I fight him, also a European title. They are the fights I want.
hahhahaha LOL you are funny Smigga, and you write and express yourself well and make good points. F**k the anorak, nerdy boxrec herd...the bitterness can almost be tasted.....Good luck mate, I wish you all the best!
