Dont look like anyone is interested in your silly little thread cauliflower arse

Groves and Smith this weekend

I'm expecting another great fight

In reply to Post #4
Should be a good one. First proper test of smiths career. I'm backing groves for a stoppage in the later rounds. Smith is too upright, and too easy to hit.

Agree, could be interesting

TBH I wasn't too convinced against the fight with skoglund, thought he struggled myself.

Why isn't it in the UK, one of the biggest fights for a while ffs

Smith wins

In reply to Post #7
Didn't see that one coming at all, definitely the performance of his career so far. Groves looked like an old man in there tonight

In reply to Post #7
We will find out tonight

I guess it all depends on Smith, we know what Groves can do pending his shoulder and stamina over the 12

Looking at Smith, long and gangly you would think he would be working on the end of a long jab, typical with the rest of the family he likes a tear up which could cost him if he does, gangly fighter with an in close style. Unless he changes it for tonight, but can't see it myself

Fight was last night

Oddly the fight was Friday night

In reply to Post #4
Shame for groves last night, doubt he'll be back after that.

More the fool me lol

Watched the press conference and never thought anything else about it, expected it to be Saturday

Will have to watch the replay, respect to Smith then

In reply to Post #12
He says he definitely not retiring. Off th back of that performance I can't see him getting back to world level again, a step up to light heavy may be in order

In reply to Post #14
Just watched the highlights. Great boxing display and very well disciplined from Smith, used the jab very well and picked the punches

Groves, not so sure myself, the question I would ask his where does he go next or who can he fight next?

Maybe a rematch with Smith. Smith dominated with the Jab but Groves caught him early in the 7th, could have gone either way at that point for me, although Smith did box well. One up for the Smith family

Good news is we have a new British champion, fights like that and he may hold the belts a long time which would be nice to see
