I'm looking forward to this fight, they keep saying that it's Groves talk that has built the fight up but I fancied it because I watched Groves beat Alcoba and thought he was a star in the making.

Fair play mate, I hope you're right. I think it's a mismatch.

chubby thumbs, he ought to suck his fat fingers instead of mugging to the cameras; go on Groves.

The Naz of the Kelley fight showed some fortitude.

Sorry, double post

I don't know about fortitude but Naz never fancied a "battle" from Kevin Kelley onwards.

Woodhall talking shite about Froch's chin like he can't be hurt, ignoring that Taylor, Kessler and Robin Reid hurt him.

Watching from Heathrow Airport lol. This is gonna be an awesome trip if Froch stops him. Gonna win a LOTTTTTT

Sky are taking the piss here. How long can they drag this shite out.

Groves is on his way out, silly having Woodhall and Nelson in the ring - no need; go on George.

I agree 100% mate. Undercard is sh1te, but I paid for the main event. I'd rather I didn't have to, but I think it's worth it.

Keith I remember the early days of PPV and they were special nights. Stacked cards from UK then over to the States for another stacked card. Those days were like 8 Froch v Kessler fights on one night! Not this crap. My God, even Don King would put this card on for free its that shite.

Which PPV cards are you talking about? Don't think I knew about these cards that had 8 World title unifications on them between 2 of the top 3 fighters in the division.

Or are you just exaggerating...[/quote]

Ok Slight exaggeration. On 29/11/96 we were treated to 7 world title fights that night including 3 heavyweight title fights! We were treated with Tyson v Holyfield, Moorer v Botha, Akinwande v Zolkin, Ricardo Lopez v Ndumo, Benn v Collins, Hamed v Molina, Winky Wright v Bingham plus Herbie Hide, Scott Welch, Carl Thompson, Michael Brodie and Danny Williams on the undercards. Now tell me tonights shite matches that!

Its because of all the mismatches finishing early they had so much time to fill

Good luck. Hope it comes in for ya.


On a separate point does anyone know if Khalid Yafai is fighting later or if he fought earlier? Or if his fight and Scott Cardles fight got canned very late on?

Adam Booth just said on 5live that Groves "stood Froch on his head" in Froch's final spar before the 1st Kessler fight

Stanley Ketchel would be a Froch fan.

This show.

We've seen the best of Froch, hoping for a Groves win to freshen things up.

The intro music is very heavy on the Oasis front!

They don't at all. I was just making a point you were exaggerating. And I'd suggest that is better than every PPV we have ever had including the ones before the Eddie Hearn era.

What time is Booth going to be in the corner?
