maaarsh Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Steve Peters will have sorted all that. Â Â Steve Peters is a self publicist hype job - how did he work out for that cunt Ronny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maaarsh Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 whilst i'd like Froch to win, couldn't help be excited by the prospect of Groves going on to challenge Ward if he wins. Â like somebody else said, he keeps surprising us. Â Froch Ward is available on catch-up on sky for those who want to see how hopeless Carl is against a skilled boxer. Groves isn't in that class yet, but he showed first fight he's good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Steve Peters is a self publicist hype job - how did he work out for that cunt Ronny?Stopped him wanting to top himself every time he lost and bought him back from the brink of a nervous breakdown. How did he work for Raheem Stirling,Luis Suarez,Daniel Sturridge and the Brittish cycling team?  The only people giving him publicity are the people he's helped out.

Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted May 28, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted May 28, 2014 saying Froch is hopeless against a skilled boxer is unfair. Â Ward is one of the best i've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted May 29, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted May 29, 2014 Going off at a tangent, how good of a fight that would be - Ward v Calzaghe in his prime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Calzaghe would have avoided that one at all costs! Â Or maybe waited till Ward was 48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylswhite Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Froch Ward is available on catch-up on sky for those who want to see how hopeless Carl is against a skilled boxer. Groves isn't in that class yet, but he showed first fight he's good enough. Even loosely mentioning Ward and Groves in the same breath is mental. Utterly mental.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted May 29, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted May 29, 2014 I listened to Grove on TS last night whilst stuck on the bastard M40, he came across ok but I don't know of his history. So if I watch the fight who should I be cheering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrp Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 those saying Groves is levels and levels below Ward were saying the same about Froch. Â he's the real deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledwhite2 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 those saying Groves is levels and levels below Ward were saying the same about Froch.  he's the real deal  He is some way back from Ward's talent though, in fairness. That's not an insult, I like Groves and he should be able to grab a world title at some point. I think he's the real deal in that sense.  But you don't get stopped by Froch, win a razor thin decision against Degale and get dropped hard by Kenny Anderson if you are at Ward's level - an Olympic Gold medalist with an almost impregnable defence.  All that said Ward is a waste of time anyway. Won't fight away from home, almost so inactive he would become unranked, and despite his talent his style is boring, so nobody gives a shit if he isn't fighting anyway.

Maggie Tate Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 As I speak that nonsense is on Sky again when they all sit round a table gobbing off and Steve Collins looks Roy Jones in the eye and without a hint of irony tells him he'd have beaten him. Stupid bastard.  I'd like to see Groves get a kicking as he's achieved fuck all but thinks he's an all time great but either way I think it will be a fight of swings and roundabouts. Coukld go twelve, could go about three. And neither Ward nor Chavez Jr will be in the slightest bit concerned by what they see. They're the only fights left for Froch unless he gets a decider with Groves, should he win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
