Comments Thread For: George Groves Officially Signs Deal With Sauerland Event

Hope he doesn't get stuck just fighting european opposition

Outside of Ward, most of the top fighters in the division are European.

Does anyone know why happens with the IBF mandatory should Groves beat Froch,I seem to be under the belief Groves does not have to face Gonzales DeGale winner as his next defence,but Froch does should he be victorious.

Can anyone shed any light on the situation for the victor ?

Afaik DeGale said the winner had 190(?) days to fight him.

But thinking about it, a new IBF champ has one optional defence which is why we didn't get Porter-Brook.

If Froch wins, is he realistically going to fight DeGale? I'd rather see Froch-Chavez JR or Froch-GGG.

Say six months then,kool.

Maybe Groves will attempt to unify during that time against Abe or Ward,assuming he wins of course.

Abraham was linked with Paul Smith last week,a truly awful defence.he should be embarrassed,i can't believe anyone would pay to watch that fight.

Hearn was saying he had heard GGG wanted no part of Froch before the first Groves fight,after the fight their was no mention of him at all and all talk about Chavez Jr.I don't expect Froch to go anywhere near Golovkin,win or lose against Groves.

Froch is nearly finished which is a massive shame for the sport. One more fight after Groves maybe?

Personally I won't miss him.

I expect he will be around a while longer should he win,he's finally presented himself as a ppv attraction in his homeland,I expect he will ride he crest of that wave as long as he possibly can.it is personal opinion that the reason he detests Groves so much is because he always knew Groves would make him look ******,especially at a time when he had just established himself as a ppv headliner,and could potentially undo all the previous hard work in establishing himself.I see no other reason why he should dislike George,the way he disregarded Groves in the build up to the first fight he had to expect George to respond,especially after fabricating lies saying George disrespected him first.

I've always felt Froch lacks a certain humility and class,it has been evident all the way through his career from his pursuit of Joe Calzaghe to his losses to Ward and Mikkel.

I won't lie,I don't like him.

[kafkod]

is there any significance in groves announcing this before the fight?

"Everything for a reason." How many times has Groves said that during the build up to this fight?

Groves trying to run from the DeGale rematch yet again

If Froch beats Groves, he will fight on imo. It will be Chavez, DeGale or Kessler (if he can activate rematch clause).

If Froch wins I reckon it's safe to say he'll do a decider against Kessler.
