DeGale vrs Groves

[millidonk]

I actually thought the main event was really good, not the tear up they promised but a fascinating chess match of a bout. Very well executed game plan from the Groves camp (and that for me was clearly a team effort) and I had him a couple of rounds ahead, DeGale took too long to get going. I'd watch a rematch.

Would you pay for a rematch?

Anyway, other boxing news - Bernard Hopkins gets the Light-Heavyweight belt, and becomes the oldest World Champ ever at 46 years. 

Just watched it now. Doing press ups in the ring, while Pascal was late coming out of the corner was immense. WP Mr Hopkins, great boxer.

In reference to my original comment of 'its deffo not a PPV' I still think it is deffo not a PPV. PPVs should only be reserved for world level title fights, and very good world title fights at that. This was just a good match up between two up and coming domestic fighters. (I disagree with any boxing on Sky being a PPV btw, robbing swines)

Only if it was part of a proper PPV card.  They should both go their separate ways for a year or two and let the rematch build, ideally they will meet for a World title in a couple of years time.  DeGale should go and find himself a proper trainer in the meantime.
