Bad boy fighter he was.

“We can all have a pull about, all pull about a little bit” one of my favourite boxing moments of all time 😂 that Froch vs Grooves moment classic.

Grew up with my dad showing me his VHS tapes of Hagler, Duran etc. but Groves was the first boxer of my generation that got me fully following boxing, my man St George 👊

I’ve always liked and respected George Groves. When he beat James De Gale that’s when I started to take notice of Him. He had a great career and realised his dream of becoming world champion something other fighters are still struggling to accomplish. He got out the game with all his faculties in tact and can move forward now and enjoy raising his kids without hopefully having to struggle to pay the bills. With the Internet and social media as an available tool to making a living, he can move on and add to his already gained riches. Well done George, you done great and will be remembered as a great fighter and a great person.

Watched a lot off groves interviews but i remeber one he did on the radio...before the the first froch fight...liked him and followed him since true warrior

Being a fan of Froch naturally I enjoyed seeing George get sparked at Wembley. However, you can’t help but admire his determination to achieve his dream of being a world champion. He certainly did it the hard way and deserves all the fruits of his Labour. He never gave up on himself and succeeded; and now can enjoy retirement in good health. Good luck to the bloke.

Groves is always a great interview, honest & straight talking, no nonsense

Wonderful. No opponent was ever the same after they fought Mr Groves.

He basically managed himself during the Froch fight, interesting insight into what goes on behind the scenes

George ready for cruiserweight...thanks for all the memories sir!

Listened to this multiple times. Easily one of the best boxing interviews I've ever heard. Tris' line of questioning gets all this great information and stories out. Also Groves = British boxing legend. The Froch and Eubank Jr fights are way up there for domestic dust ups both in terms of the build up and fight nights.

Tris ... research... unreal! “I found another interview we did in 2010”. Legend! George is like “oh shit... what did I say in 2010”

People making out he’s fat ffs 🤦‍♂️ he’s walking around at his natural weight with a bit of added extra. He ain’t dropping 2 stone to make super middleweight now you clowns

Top guy. Saw him on his recent tour with froch and he's really down to earth. Great boxer and good to watch, pity he's retired now

Groves is a legend. A true warrior, wish him all the best in his retirement

I seriously liked watching George’s fights , great fighter and seems an even better fella,

Groves got me into boxing when I was younger, was devastated when he lost to froch but generally had a tear in my eye when he finally got his world title

What a feeling it must have been for George to finally win the title after the Froch and Badou Jack fights.All those setbacks and all the pain and effort finally paid off for him and i was so glad when he etched his name in history.

This bloke is British boxing royalty! His career was full of highs and some lows but that’s what made his story so good! He was a great fighter, extremely exciting, great jab, great style, a true warrior

Was brought up on boxing due to my dad but George was the first boxer of my generation to get me really into the sport can only thank you for that dude!

He lived rent free in Froch's head during their first fight. Same with Degale.
