Great career he's had, Groves, Those fantastic nights at Wembley against our very own Carl Froch, That controversial first fight followed by the infamous 80'000 second fight, which unfortunately for Groves he came up short in, But.. still a stellar resume with wins over Degale, the dangerous eubank, Jamie Cox, Chudinov, That 12 round war with Badou Jack over in America, what a fight that was. He's been brilliant has groves, the consummate professional, win,lose or draw, he always gave it his all, british boxing will miss him, and us here at sky will certainly miss him.

Joe Cook Carl has always had a bit of a snobbish attitude and never showed anyone respect. When Groves fought Froch he gained massive popularity because he actually talked shit to Froch and made him very uncomfortable and people loved it.

I didn't like it. I thought it was unnecessarily disrespectful. Still, respect the fighter and the man, but I hated the tone of those two fights. Felt like the casuals got too excited

This is a guy I was happy to see get the belt.

Got wiser with age and turned into a real class act, well done GG. Thanks for all the great fights through the years, Top man!

Shocking how he was treated throughout his career. Never given a chance, never given a break. Bad luck after bad luck. Still managed to achieve lots in the game.

The most refreshingly honest self assessment of any boxer I’ve seen a credit to the sport

Always been a fan of Groves. When he talks about Gutknecht you can tell that plays on his mind and that he has a heart. Well done for not listening to the doubters George and getting that world championship.

Said it on BT's tribute to Grove's and ill say it on this. He had the best jab in the buisness!!!

@Shlomo Bergsteinowitz He's had 3 world title shots Achieved a world title. Fought on the biggest stage infront of one of the biggest crowds at Wemebly. Got to the final of the world Boxing super series as a champion and went out on his shield. Has earned a truck full of money and left the sport in good health. An Amazing intriguing career dispite his losses hence the reason you watched the video had a read through the comment's.

@Shlomo BergsteinowitzI wouldn't say 30 year old with a f#%ked shoulder is Quiting in his prime. Putting Eduard Gutknecht in a coma and disabling him for life changed Grove's. There's nothing wrong in admitting defeat to the better man and knowing when to walk away from boxing as long as he's at peace in doing so. I don't think he will be to arsed about his critic's either way.

He retired a while ago BT beat you to it. A very good intelligent fighter. I appreciate him more now he has retired.

Seems like yesterday this fella was turning Pro. How time flies. Much respect to George Groves, a quality operator and a proud champion. Getting out at the right time, and thanks for the memories!

Quality fighter. The build up to the froch bouts was absolutely incredible.

Superb Athlete, Proud, Tough, Great Example

A genuine credit to boxing. An incredibly exciting career to have followed! Enjoy retirement champ!

He doesn't get the credit he deserves. His self belief was brilliant. That first Froch fight was so controversial and it was such a fantastic fight. Groves always stepped up to the occasion and even after he got laid out, he came back and won a world title. How can you fault him for that?

Touching story, The guy gave it a go and that takes more courage than what most people on the planet could do. Will be remembered as a brave fighter that feared no challenger. No matter what their level.

Great boxer and left the sport at the right time clever man the real St George

Fantastic interview, I dont think anyone will ever forget his first fight with Froch, Just an awesome fight to watch and respect to both of them. Loved George's style, totally different from the norm. A true winner in every way. Enjoy your retirement George, You bloody deserve it

Proud to say i was there to see this legend win a world title 😃

Legend. Quality fighter. Thanks for the memories. Wishing the Saint a happy retirement.

Underrated fighter. His performance in the first 6 rounds of the first froch fight was one of the best I have ever seen. He would have stopped 99% of Super Middles that night but froch had the best chin in the business.

Agreed mate! If you watch Froch's legs when he gets up from that right-hand in the first round, he's completely gone when he stands up, but his chin meant he could recuperate quickly. Think if that had have been earlier on the round, it could've been a different story altogether.

Love this guy. Absolute gentleman. An English gent. Underrated talent. He was mercuarial in the first Froch fight. He lost a lot of confidence after not Froch confrontations but slowly rebuilt.

A great career and a great lad. A British great

Thanks for this memory’s lad , good fighter, you achieved your dream ...not many can say that god bless 🥊

Gotta love them. They put everything on the line for our entertainment

Groves reminds me of a young fighter I train with who has the potential to go far. If you didn't know him you would think he is obnoxious, arrogant and slightly aggressive but he is just really pragmatic about everything. It's refreshing to hear Groves talk so honestly about his successes and failures. Groves has provided everybody with some boxing memories we'll never forget and helped build a platform for this golden era of British boxing.

A great open and honest insight.. he deserves to enjoy his retirement

The fighter that got me back into boxing after the departure of Calzaghe and Hatton. Cannot wait for the Autobiography....hopefully that'll be out for Christmas.

That win over degale must have been an amazing feeling.

Fantastic fighter. Massive heart. Well done George, and thank you

Traumatic life being a boxer. Massive respect to Groves.

A complete gent, and warrior. I will miss GG

So so honest. Top bloke.

from France congratulations for your career good luck !

I’m at the age where I’ve seen boxers of today start and finish their careers, George Groves W/C, is right up there as a true warrior. Thankyou. All the best for the future.

What a terrific guy, and intelligent. It's obvious in his dissection of the list of potentials in any direction, win or loss....against an opponent, and knowing life exists outside the ring....and other things are important. I'd love to see more people like this terrific guy.

One of my favourite British boxers of all time! What a journey.

Good interview. He can be proud of his career and how he conducted himself.

Well done George. One of my favourite fighters ever.

I've been watching boxing for a long time but somehow missed Groves. I didn't expect to watch this whole thing but it really drew me in. Glad he got it in the end!

Excellent documentary- top level skills, underrated toughness and a decent bloke to boot.

Always was a huge fan of Groves, loved the career, enjoy the well earned retirement!

Legend. Good luck with your future Groves!

Go on the Saint! A pure gent and a great champion! Froch is such a bell-end!

Some of the best boxing nights! It was so good to support George and be part of Team Saint George Groves! Thank you George for stepping up and doing your best 😀👍 Enjoy your retirement and look back with pride! Well done champ 👊👍

Amazing watch. Goosebumps at the end.

Such a genuine guy - great career

I started to follow at the end of his career, he was underrated fighter. Had one of the most beatiful and efective body punch, when we was covering(counter-attacking!) he was always a gentlema, now i know why. He should make more fight, he´s on his prime!! Great champ!!

George ty ye ll always be one of my fav boxers and an example to boxin.Ty ty ty very much for giving yer all i enjoyed you

George your an inspiration and credit to boxing. A big Heart and gave 100% every fight you had in the lions den. You retain your insight, mobility and sharp as a tack brain. Well done George

Wow, I wasn't expecting to tear up when he spoke about Eddie. It's clear as ice that George is hurting because of what happened to Eddie, and it heavy. God bless them both.

George , you've been great.

Hands down one of my favourite boxers! Seen you win the Commonwealth Belt too seeing you win the world title at Sheffield! Groves is a legend

I’d have loved to see Groves v Saunders , everything about it , mind games , boxing the lot !

A very engaging man. I suspect even Froch has a grudging respect for him! Enjoy the retirement George, and thanks for the memories!

I've watched quite a bit of boxing, and in my lifetime this guy is probably my favourite

Inspirational! 🙏🏻

This was absolutely fantastic. A great lasting homage to the best jab the UK has ever seen.

What an inspiration. Could've gave up when knocked out but kept going and achieved his dreams. Fantastic

will be missed, such a class fighter! enjoy retirement GG

Great piece. Always been a Groves fan. Love his guts and spirit. Made Froch look like an arrogant sod in the first fight and was robbed by Howard Foster IMO but came back and won his title. Retired at the right time. Good luck George.

Enjoyed watching your fights. Very skillful and slick.

Being from Nottingham I was a big Froch fan. However, I have a lot of respect for Groves because of his bravery, tenacity, skill and that bizzare tie he was wearing in the interview with Degale!

Genuinely good guy groves, speaks it as it is well done on a great career 💪🏻🙂

I am a massive boxing fan and I love George, he is an absolute Gentleman. Fantastic boxer and genuine person. I would love to have a beer you with mate!

I’ve watched that Froch first fight many times, it still makes my shit itch!! Wish he could have continued with Booth(unbeaten together) I think he would have been the champ a lot sooner. Respect for the mind games too. Always spoke truths, some people just don’t recognise them. Class act.

Always a gent always held himself with integrity. Great boxer and man.

Top man and great entertainer! Thanks George and up the Chels!

What a likeable chap. I wish him well.

An absolute legend. Love Groves

Absolutely love this guy 👍

Straight up legend

Well done on a great career champ! Legend in the sport! What a story to tell! Team saint GG

George is my favourite Super Middleweight champion of all time and I wish him all the best

Upmost respect to you champ. Happy retirement.

Well done groves you did it you made it to become a real champion 👍🏼

My favourite British boxer had it all well done George really exciting career & deservedly a world champion enjoy your retirement

A fantastic career! Hopefully he invested his money wisely and enjoys the rest of his life. Thanks for the great fights George!

Nothing but respect for him. Great fighter.

Bravo George! U r one of my favorite boxes

Yes George what a nice guy he is

You can see clearly when he's talking about eddie how much its affected him choking back and not being able to find words ect shows how human these fighting machines are

Top man George Groves. Done himself, family, friends and supporters proud.

What a guy great person honesty

A credit to the nation, I wish you well in anything you do George.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Well done Groveys enjoy your retirement and put your feet up you deserve it mate , Thanks for all the memories.

Fairplay George, carry yourself with intelligence and without fear... You warmed to the boxing public... A true Professional and Gent.....

Big heart. Courageous. The Froch fight should NEVER have been stopped ! Well done Georgie boy !!! x 🙂

Beautiful boy I love his swagger. George is a champ love you 💙

An absolute gent. You did everyone proud.

6:35 Adam Booth giving it to team Degale haha! They’ll never admit it, but I think deep down they were both very disappointed to split
