Fascinating middleweight clash tonight in the NW London divs, two of the best in the country out of the same club (Dale Youth) are set to box tonight...

Degale wins IMO.
Groves is still a pup.His time will come though.

Good. Dont know anything about the lad but I have never taken to Degale - always seems a case of style over substance to me.

hitmanhatton/armchairfan will be crying into his cereal this morning upon hearing this news..

Well done to Groves.

It's hard to fight guys from the same club.
Going by some of the reports(couple who were present and Warrior boxing website)the fight was very close,could of gone either way.

Just seen the footage of the fight.
Looked a poor decision.Degale should have got the nod.

Agree with TerribleTerry's views on Degale. His amateur career at the top level reminds me of Adrian Dodson's pro career. Looks the part, but somehow loses the big ones and "under performs" - like, Dodson he will invariably start as favourite no matter how many loses.
