It's unbelievable that we managed to get these two in the same room without Degale calling him "ugly kid" or Groves saying his ego is too big. I've never been this nervous watching a podcast. This truly was the best rivalry I'd ever witnessed. Both were outstanding fighters too.

Id always watched boxing casually with my dad like the big big fights when I was younger but when these guys had there rivalry I was about 15-16 before there first fight and I just remember the build up for it on Ringside and it really got me invested to the point I just started watching as much boxing as I could and nearly 15 years later im still a massive fan of the sport.
