    I think he'll resurface in his daft hat again in a couple of years and probably talk his way into a couple of diddy 'comeback fights' and a crack at a belt.

    He is a smooth operator if nothing else.

    Ariza is a despicable piece of * really. Kicking an old man with Parkinson's if low.

    The only person who came out of that whole debacle not looking like a complete * was Garcia.

    Wasnt actually being an * but I cringed a bit

    No doubt about it. I don't think anyone came out positively, but compared to Roach and especially Ariza he came out okay.

    Not sure it's in the video I posted but there's one going around where Roach calls Ellie Seckbach, a boxing fan/reporter, a '* jew' which is the reason I think he looks bad in this. In his defence I'm sure after getting belted in the stomach and having a group of people mock your Parkinsons disease, I'm sure he wasn't thinking clearly.

    The disgusting thing about both Seckbach and Ariza is that the "stutterring *" as they labelled him made both their careers.

    Would love to see Pac unleashed on Ariza :smiley-laughing002:

    Its a heated argument and both camps are being offensive just hope the language police/media dont take one side
    Seen the video of Roach calling Elie a '* Jew *', stupid from Roach but the way that wee * Elies reaction is whats annoying me. He's loving it, posting videos titled 'Roach goes off on jews', 'Is Roach racist?', posting the videos to TMZ on twitter etc. He's just a wannabe reporter wanting this to turn into the Freddie Roach racism scandal

    I'm positive Froch will be too powerful for Groves on the night. Eager to see this one.

    I am raging i am going to miss the fight.
    I just badly want to see Groves get flattened, i cant see it lasting more than 5 rounds, Froch is going to go all out.

    Love froch,the way he boxes and his whole attitude..

    He has earned the right to be cocky as sure of himself whereas for me groves hasn't and has actually annoyed me how he's for about his interview and stuff pre fight..

    Quite a few pals going up there for it Saturday and all supporting groves,I hope it's a good fight and that froch knocks him out eventually in devastating fashion much like bute..

    It's not out of the question either,once froch a catches him if it's not once or twice it'll be the third and goodnight..

    Going to go against the grain here, I think Groves could spring a surprise and beat Froch on Saturday. Not saying he should be favourite, but pretty tempted by the odds on offer.

    I hope Froch smashes him.

    I also hope Pacman does the same to Rios.

    I would certainly prefer Froch that Grooves.
    Froch has earned the right to be arrogant.
