George Groves has been inspired by training alongside Carl Frampton and insists he has got his killer instinct back.The Briton faces Eduard Gutknecht at Wembley Arena Friday, and is aiming for a fourth successive win since losing a split points decision to WBC world super-middleweight champion Badou Jack last September.That setback followed stoppage losses to Carl Froch for world titles in 2013 and 2014, but Groves is rebuilding his career after switching trainers.He swapped Adam Booth for Shane McGuigan, the son of former world featherweight champion Barry, after the Jack defeat.Ive found a trainer who understands what I do well, Groves said of McGuigan, who also works with WBA world featherweight champion Frampton and David Haye at a south London gym.The stuff hes doing with Frampton makes sense to do with me as well. Im back with that killer instinct.Shane gets me to punch hard and my timing is back to its best. Instead of waiting for opportunities, Im able to set them and land them a lot better. I dont have to be too specific with a game plan now.Theres a good chemistry in the gym. Carl has been back a few weeks now and I will watch him train before I do. Its fascinating because you feel privileged training alongside exceptional fighters like that.You want to push on because the guy next to you is doing well and I want to do the same.Groves impressively out-pointed Martin Murray last June and is predicting big things again. This fight will show that I mean business again, he said.Hopefully people will take notice and see what Im capable of. He [Gutknecht] is not someone I will take lightly. This might not be a world title fight, but I cant look past him and I need to win well. It will be a step up from the Murray fight.Gutknecht 34, was out-pointed by German Juergen Braehmer in a world light-heavyweight title fight last March and is an experienced campaigner.I would like to get rid of him, but hes a fit lad and can take a shot well. Hes only been stopped on a cut. I need to look good in this one, Groves said. Clearance LeBron James Shoes .

NEW YORK -- The Colorado Rockies are beginning to believe they are moving toward the cusp of playoff contention. The New York Mets are starting to run out of time to prove they are a legitimate threat to defend their National League pennant.Two teams at the opposite ends of the emotional spectrum will meet Thursday afternoon when the Mets host the Rockies in the opener of a four-game series at Citi Field.The Rockies posted their sixth win in seven games on Wednesday, when Nick Hundley and David Dahl hit a two-run homer and a solo shot, respectively, in the sixth inning of a 3-1 victory over the American League East-leading Baltimore Orioles.The Rockies outscored the Orioles 11-6 during the three-game series. Colorados starting pitchers recorded a 1.86 ERA against Baltimore, which ranks fifth in the American League with 478 runs scored.You look at the series overall, its one of our best series of the year, Rockies manager Walt Weiss aid. Its got to be up there. We got real good starting pitching this series and we had some really clutch hits. Thats what it takes.With nine wins in 13 games since the All-Star break, the Rockies have improved to 49-52 and moved within six games of the Miami Marlins for the second wild card spot in the National League.Thats the type of winning consistency the Mets would like to establish. But theyve been unable to establish any sort of consistency: New York has alternated wins with losses in each of its 12 games after the All-Star break.The Mets appeared ready to finally win a second straight game Wednesday, but closer Jeurys Familia bblew a regular-season save opportunity for the first time in almost a year by allowing two runs in the ninth inning of a 5-4 loss to the St.dddddddddddd Louis Cardinals at Citi Field.Familia had converted 52 straight saves dating to Aug. 1, 2015, though he did blow three saves in the World Series.Its baseball and until the 27th out, you dont know any results, said Mets left fielder Yoenis Cespedes, who gave New York a 4-3 lead with a long two-run homer in the seventh inning. We have a lot of faith in Familia. But things unfortunately didnt work out.The loss dropped the Mets (53-47) 1 1/2 games behind the Marlins and 5 1/2 games behind the NL East-leading Washington Nationals.This is something we havent had happen in quite some time, Jeurys Familia not saving the game, Mets manager Terry Collins said. But youve got to come back early. Youve got an early day (Thursday) and weve got to get ready to play.The Rockies will also be working on short rest after traveling overnight from Baltimore.Its basically like we have a split doubleheader, Weiss said. Thats how Im looking at it.Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom is scheduled to oppose Rockies left-hander Tyler Anderson. DeGrom took the loss in his most recent start last Saturday when he gave up five runs in 3 2/3 innings as the Mets fell to the Marlins 7-2. Anderson posted his third straight win on Saturday when he gave up three runs in six innings as the Rockies beat the Atlanta Braves 8-4. ' ' '
