Two of my favourite moments in boxing are when Groves dropped Froch in that classic first fight and then when he finally won that WBA world title at Bramall Lane. He’s in my personal top 5 favourite boxers ever.

Great comment. Also go and search up when he knocked out a boxer called Sierra in LA. One of the best KOs you’ll ever see.

I never really warmed to George Grove's personality when he was a fighter. He had that sort of chip on his shoulder. It's nice to understand why and you actually couldn't find a more humble switched on Human Being. I'm glad he's content and happy. He deserves it

George Groves is my favourite British fighter. His journey to the world title was worthy of a film. Just to add his ram rod jab was fucking unreal!!
Was always a Froch fan, but George showed unbelievable heart, got to the top of the mountain, is a class act
What a decent guy. Well done George on your fantastic and successful career. be proud and stay content!
Love this guy. One of the best jabs in boxing. Always backed him.

James English & George Groves. I really enjoyed this interview. I’ve never understood the difficulty of a fighter that is not a marque signed fighter on a big platform. I’ve got a massive respect for George for achieving his dreams following the set backs. Good to hear him speak now he’s a retired boxer. Came across really well - Top Bloke.
Followed George's career all the way and was buzzing when he finally won his world title. Great interview James. Great rivalry with both degale and froch. And great fight CV that lots of currently active fighters can only dream of 👍
I enjoyed following George’s career from start to finish, and was so happy when he got his title…definitely one of my favourite British boxers - hell of a right hand💥
George Groves is a true warrior and legend.
Love groves, he is so open. Must have been an enjoyable interview. Thanks this was appreciated.
I was really happy when he won the title finally. People don't remember he was probably past his best when he did that, he was falling apart in his later career. He had some great moments
I met George on the tour he did with Carl Froch just under a month ago what a friendly and polite gentleman. He engaged with the fans and even took selfies and I got his and Carls autograph as well. I also went on the Tyson Fury after party tour and he was surrounded by People preventing autographs , selfies and engaging with him
Love Groves and his wicked style, very humble guy
Used to hate groves but grew on me over the years, love him now
Class interview, massive fan...a real pleasure to watch!!
As someone who went to all the early groves fights as a friend of a friend I cam honestly say it was one of the most exciting times for me In boxing ever, got to go to hos engagement party and so forth and to this day if goegre sees me round hell always go out of his way to say hello and he doesn't have to, legend in an out of the ring and can only say how proud of him for getting the world title finally

What a brilliant interview James 👌🏼 Absolutely fascinating insight to George’s career, what a journey! Loved watching his fights, especially when he put Froch on his ass 👏🏼 Great to see George enjoying retirement, looking and sounding healthy!
Never been too much of a fan of groves, definitely am now! What a great podcast and a great guy!

Another great interview Mr English onwards and upwards brother 👍🏿. Groves is a grounded bloke and a very good boxer, Good to see an Ex boxer with his faculties and Speaking well, keep up the great Podcasts James 🤜🏻🤛🏿
Very good and relaxed interview.
Always liked Groves. Didn’t act like the others and was considered odd. Which is something I can relate to. An articulate man with a great legacy. Didn’t look like a lethal elite fighter, but I liked that about him! Imagine some knob picking on him! Great bloke great interview. Thanks James and George👍
Great interview. I was lucky enough to be at Wembley for the Froch fight and it was incredible. I’ll never forget that Rubik’s cube!
This will be great!!

I agree something i noticed earlier in the podcast he said his dad would fully support him in whatever he wanted to do. Shows the treatment you recieve in the early years of your life can have a huge impact
I enjoyed this, i’ve always liked George because of his fighting style. I couldn’t help thinking how good it would be if James could get two rivals on at the same time, like Degale and Groves or two rivals that have put their past behind them.
George always give good value....in the ring and now out the ring..
One off your best interviews ever James credit too you both I know Georges strength coach for when he was training with Adam Booth and he had nothing but positive things to say about him great content and interview. 👍👍
