I don't think that is really true.
In Britain there are lots of avenues back. He can always rebuild with the British title.

Groves looks about 10 years older than he is with that beard.
Did what he had to do, but he'll have to wait for an opening that I'm not sure is coming any time soon. Although I may be wrong, given who promotes him.

Super-bantamweights do have this strange habit of being very short compared to Cruiserweights.

I went in on free tickets like hundreds if not half the crowd last night.
Stinking card.
Only the hibbert v Martin fight worth the effort.
Great venue thought.

Decent nights work from Groves nothing really learned about his adjustments seeing as Di Luisa offered little resistence,its good to see George get the KO and back to winning ways all the same
Hibbert-Martin was a cracking little scrap,it was a shame about the confusion surrounding the ending,i had Hibbert in front but it would have been nice to see Tommy hear the final bell,i wouldnt mind a rematch,its hard to believe Martin is only 21,plenty time on his side and he'll no doubt come again

I thought sky were being overly critical of Martin for a good while in the fight. For a young lad he looked really good against a seasoned vet, made mistakes for sure but i never felt like he was completely out the fight. Shame about the ending, its a silly mistake to make but at least for his sake he has time to come again. How can you prep for that situation? happened twice in the night if im correct?

Dave Ryan will beat him if Hibbert gives him the rematch that he should.

I thought Martin got up on the 9 of the count and deserved to see the end of a cracking scrap and his team should get him to throw a jab , hardly threw one all fight and loaded up with every shot . good prospect tho'

Funny seeing Frampton stood next to Johnny and Glenn,i remember Carl saying once that Danny DeVito should play him in a movie of his life
