James Degale: "Let me tell you something...forgot what i was gonna say now" Groves: "sounds about right" had me in stitches

A credit to the sport, a role model to the youth. You did England proud George. Absolute legend

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.

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

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.

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!

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

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!!!

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!

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

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

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?

Was a class act Groves..Respect from 🇮🇪

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

That win over degale must have been an amazing feeling.

Superb Athlete, Proud, Tough, Great Example

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.

Best jab I've ever seen imagine this guy's mental health after this froch honestly I went two the badu Jack fight he won such a great fighter

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.

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

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

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

A complete gent, and warrior. I will miss GG

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.

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

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.

Legend. Good luck with your future Groves!

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 👊👍

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

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!!

Well done George. One of my favourite fighters ever.

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

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

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.

Traumatic life being a boxer. Massive respect to Groves.

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

from France congratulations for your career good luck !

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 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

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

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.

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

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

Amazing watch. Goosebumps at the end.

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

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

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

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

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!

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.

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!

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

Such a genuine guy - great career

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

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

Just upload Joshua vs Miller The gloves are off you nobs.

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

Inspirational! 🙏🏻

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

Enjoyed watching your fights. Very skillful and slick.

Bravo George! U r one of my favorite boxes

So so honest. Top bloke.

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

George , you've been great.

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

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

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

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

Cheers George. Just fucking, cheers man.👊🏻

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

one of my favourites. best fights watching groves. gutted hes gone, boxing aint as hype without him.

Wow, that first question in the beginning of the video, and George going silent... that was powerful.

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

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

What a legend groves is,great career

I met George Groves once when he came to the States to fight Badu Jack at a open workout the man is one of the nicest good folk in boxing 🥊🇲🇽

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

A great career and a great lad. A British great

An absolute legend. Love Groves

No1 in his division, headlined Wembley stadium, that first Froch fight was one of the most inspiring performances I've seen. Should hold his head very high

Absolute saint in the sport,.. It shows how hard it is to become a elite fighter,.. George had a difficult ride....I thought if froch groves 1 hadn't of been stopped, he had a great chance of winning that fight, when 2 happened froch knew much more about boxing groves and it was to be the difference, regardless of results any fighter would of loved to be involved in such a huge set of fights. Amazing fughter

You have to give it to George Groves in that first fight with Carl Froch. For the first six to seven rounds Groves out jabbed and outboxed Froch. Only sheer will from Froch and Howard Foster being over protective in stopping the fight prematurely meant that George Groves was robbed of the opportunity to beat Carl Froch. That being said Groves did look tired and Froch was coming back strong.

Credit to the sport, here was a man who had set back after set back but kept on coming. I was over the moon for him when he eventually became a world Champion

Degale the onion boy

Absolute credit to British boxing! We were lucky to have him

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

Absolutely love this guy 👍

Don’t really approve of boxing, but sometimes you have stop and admire the heart that goes in it. What a remarkably brave and thoughtful man.

Watched start to end. Got to like George Comes across as a smart guy. Happy for him at the end

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