Did I hear correctly that Groves is Swindon-based?

Paddy is his trainer since Groves split with Adam Booth. One loss under Paddy but that is not his fault. Foster's decision making was terrible that night and ended a great bout. Groves trains between Swindon and London.

Would like to get tickets for this, but can see an unprecedented demand - 60k allocation, with tickets starting @ £30 for anyone interested!

Hell of a payday for Groves. Lucky boy - far better UK fighters than him have never got this kind of opportunity. Shows the value of an injustice/feud stoking up the public's interest.

I'd imagine there would be a few available in Swindon, local promoter Keith Mayo might be a good man to try! |

I expect the fact that he also put Froch on his arse early doors helped - hope he does him again |

Are you taking the piss? In mid-2013 the IBF installed Groves as the mandatory challenger to Froch. |

There won't be any problems getting tickets for this whatsoever. 60,000 go on sale Monday so everybody who wants one will get one.
It isn't like the last one which was limited to the ~20k capacity of the M.E.N. which meant touts knew they'd shift whatever they got their hands on.
Also if the initial 60k sell out (huge if) they can put on another 20k+
Would be amazed if this sells out though, I'll be watching on sky personally, fuck watching boxing in a 90k stadium, unless you're ringside which is uber bucks theres little point in my opinion, other than to say 'check me out, I was there'.
P.S. I was at the first fight. Check me out.
