    Two different fighters on the same night, at the Echo Arena, Liverpool on December 7.

    DeGale will defend his WBO title against Spain's Jose Guerrero and Groves will face a challenger yet to be named.

    Bet I had ya thinking they'll face each other? Just for a second, no? :dunno:

    DeGale doesn't have the WBO Title?? He's European champ

    DeGale should retire, I agree.

    Groves is terrified of a rematch, he has said as much without actually saying it

    Odd, considering he won 10 rounds in the first bout.

    Possibly nine, with one even. I'm willing to see it both ways here.

    DeGale won by 3 rounds. Could see 7-5 if I was being kind.

    TKO is so biased :lol:. Chunky proved his whiskers last time out. Groves would have been splattered by some of those right hands.

    Gotta say I agree.

    There's no guarantee he'll beat this Spanish scrub let alone a Groves rematch.

    I gave Groves 9 rounds in the first fight, I'd expect him to be far more dominant in the rematch, possibly getting a mid rounds stoppage.

    9 rounds if running away is part of your judging criteria, sure

    Apart from the KO vs Smith, what has made you guys think that Groves is better than he was vs DeGale? He hasn't looked impressive

    If I was DeGale, I would go all Tall-Paul in my fights, become a thresher, he's going to lose rounds just by not punching enough and he still seems to get tagged too easily in those fights.

    The fight between DeGale and Groves was very close and DeGale finished stronger if I recall.

    Their "common opponent" is Paul Smith, who is poo, and both men took him apart, Groves somewhat more clinically but both men dished it out and didn't take much in return.

    Its criminal how badly treated were Groves chances in the buildup, the entire Sky panel were sat in the studio basically saying, in so many words, that it was a matter of when, not if, DeGale would beat Groves.

    That is completely irrelevant. Nobody counts that shit and I don't even think Groves won that.

    Groves injured - out of the Liverpool card. DeGale headlines.

    I guess Groves hurt his hands on DeGale's face.
