Comments Thread For: Badou Jack, George Groves Reach Terms, Avoid Purse Bid

Ugly Kid has some serious luck.

Dirk! Don't be like that... Pretty Boy George made his own luck here by going the WBC route. Fingers crossed Groves and Degale do the business and set up that unification.

What's the weather like out in Boston, Dirk?

Ugly Kid has some of the best luck I've ever seen. First he gets a lucky gift decision over DeGale (in the amateurs and pros despite running like a girl).

Then he fights a whole host of bums and gets manuvered ahead of more deserving challengers to fight Carl Froch.

Then he gets the biggest break of his entire life by Howard Foster Jr stopping that fight slightly early before he got absolutely flattened.

Gets a rematch based on the false controversy which turns into the biggest British fight ever.

Somehow then gets an eliminator in his very next fight despite being KTFO.

Is supposed to face Anthony Dirrell who is decent and would probably have sparked him out but instead gets to face a guy who was wiped out in a round by a journeyman.

Insane luck - I guess he deserved some having been born looking like that.

Whilst James DeGale has to face arguably the most talented guy in the division for his shot.

Carl Froch's resume takes a nosedive if Jack beats Groves.

Groves has been Cobra'd.

And Lulz - doesn't have in turn mean Ward's resume takes a huge nosedive since Froch is his best win? You're a truly laughable poster

More than likely be on the Mayweather undercard September 12th.

Floyd said he wants to stack it.

Only really seen Groves vs Froch, but from what I can tell he get over zealous, and doesn't have much of a beard. Jack is kind of slow, but fights patient, and I think he's faced ( amongst both their wins) the better comp. Its a pick em in my eyes. The advantage for Jack is that he will spar a lot similar style fighters going into this one.

Jack's chin isn't exactly granite considered he got layed out in 1 round by a journeyman.

Groves will stop Jack.

Lol, yeah ok, we'll have to settle on "arguably" the most talented coz he's definitely that. He has skills tho no doubt.

I would say Groves insane luck started being born looking like that, beauty is in the eye of the beholder tho innit... As Degale's 2-foot long face obviously floats your boat.

Anyway don't skirt around it Dirk... Don't tell me you are gonna be watching the fight from your old dear's sofa in Bishops Stortford, and Chunky's No.1 fan aint made it out to Boston??!!

Good call. That'd be nice.

"the lone two losses".....LOL.

I thought that too but I think it might've been that he got caught cold early.

Against Dirrell he looked fine and took shots fine.

Toss up fight to me.

Groves hasn't looked that great of late even in victory and Jack looked much better his last outing.
