GEORGE GROVES MASTERCLASS

Our boxing masterclass with former super middleweight world champion George Groves.

A Londoner born and bred, George was always a big hometown favourite with many of his biggest fights right here at the O2 arena. He featured in some of British boxings tastiest rivalries of recent years, notably with former amateur team mate James Degale and who can forget the 80,000 at Wembley with ‘The Cobra’ Carl Froch.

In a career that spanned 10 years and involved  British, Commonwealth and European titles, cuts, knockdowns, dislocated shoulders and 3 world title attempts, George achieved his dream of winning world honours at his 4th attempt, beating Fedor Chudinov in front of a packed crowd at Bramall Lane, Sheffield.
