Groves is decent and IMO can win a world title but he's like Khan a step below that elite level and will be found out again when he steps back up to that class

very good assessment of Groves.

I'm inclined to agree.

Arthur Abraham vs Paul Smith is on just now.

Cmon Smith

[shanks69]

pretty even 1st round i thought.

[Gibbo]

Think that could well be 1-1, home judges got to favour Abraham for the first.

[spud_gun]

Abraham will stop Smith whenever he wants.

He's spent the first couple of rounds sizing him up.

Yeah unfortunately I think you're right.

[Gibbo]

Great round

[spud_gun]

Smith doing better than i expected.

Still got Abraham ahead on points.

Halling and Watt should be muted. As per usual they're ruining the fight.

[Gibbo]

I think Smith is still two or three behind.

[calvoboy]

Great effort here by Smith. Factor in the home judging and he's not done enough yet to get the decision though. Needs a big last 3 rounds.

Are the judges all German?

Are the judges all German?

don't know but always seems to be a nak in germany of giving it to the home fighter.
