Groves next fight!!!

[UpperCrust]

Just reading through how some people have got 9/1 on an Anderson KO/TKO. Absolutely unbelievable. I've got no idea who/how bookies construct these odds but they are an absolute mile off with that. Just rechecked the odds and they're nowhere near that now. If Anderson does won the bout by KO (he's got a pretty good chance imo) then some bookies are going to be in some big trouble!

[Smigga]

think there was a thread about andersons troubles - didnt he get charged with attempted murder but then charges were dropped.
something to do with a local drug dealer who tried to do kenny with a hammer but the guy ended up getting smashed himself!

Kennys the hardest hittter in the super middleweight divison, ask billy nelson :-)

I hit a lot harder than Anderson, ask my bird
and I'm not likely to be the hardest hitter in the entire super middleweight division

[JCB123]

oh and can i be the first to say its good for Anderson to get a decent fight, having i think been messed around re a couple of fights with Paul David.

He would have been messed around in his next scheduled fight too, in my opinion.

What are you alluding to there??????

Well going by your KO% on boxrec Anderson hits harder than you, you have two mutual opponents Dean Walker who you both stopped in 3 rounds and Simeon Cover who you fought in your 14th fight and beat by 4 points and who Anderson fought in his 5th fight and knocked out in the 6th round

I think Billy meant he hits the hardest in the Britsh super middleweight division not the entire super middleweight division ;;-)

I see that boylesports are offering 8/1 on the ko/tko/dsq for anderson. Thought i'd let anyone know that missed the 9/1 that was on offer (inc myself). Well worth a small stake

[RHOOK]

100% Groves. Respect them both but IMO Groves has the edge here.

Cheers for the heads up.

I fancy Groves to win by UD but that 8/1 is too good to pass up.

Kenny is right up for this one cant wait

yea this is great addition to the show means
if Kenny is problem free and up for this it should be a cracker

[THEBUTCH]

I agree with Adam Booth when he said Anderson would be a tougher opponent than Degale and the danger here is that Groves is looking past Kenny.

[orbtastic]

yea this is great addition to the show means

That sounds like two ready made excuses if he loses?

[Gazmac81]

No im just meaning if hes fully fit which im sure he is
looked a bit stale past couple of performances

sounds up for this anyway on the interviews so far

Apologies to all the Anderson supporters, but having checked out all the footage of Anderson I can find on youtube, I don't give him much of a chance in this fight. Sure he looks strong and appears to hit quite hard but at the same time seems noticeably slow of hand and foot compared to Groves.

Also, I'd say Groves has shown a greater punch variety. Anderson does look sturdy though, so it wouldn't surprise me if it went the distance. However, I'll be very surprised if Groves doesn't win this quite comfortably. I'll go out on a limb and say Groves by stoppage around round 8. But good luck to all those who bet on the scot. I'll be more than happy to be proved wrong by Anderson.

[Counter-puncher]

BP, i can't watch Groves and more specifically the way he'll leave his chin out to dry without thinking a full 168lber with a punch *could* clean him out. I'm not sure, until Groves irons out his glaring mistakes, that I could ever confidently call a fight totally in his favour, notwithstanding the fact that to quote the great McInvanney Anderson's footwork 'looks like it was learned in a school for deepsea divers'

Totally agree. This is Groves fight to lose

[MightyWarrior]

Looking at that fight, Anderson looks a decent operator, nice jab and looks like he hits very hard when he steps in, but from what we've seen of Groves he looks another level to the Scotsman. The only way Kenny wins is if the Groves chin is as poor as some are making out. Otherwise, Groves should win this easily.

Though George seems to be getting as cocky as Haye and Booth lately. Calling Anderson his next "victim". I know he's only half joking, but it seems too overconfident, a bit like tempting fate.

.

it's not that he's chinny, per se, but that he leaves his chin out to dry and punches with it sticking out at all kind of angles.

[THEBUTCH]

It's a big stage, but in some ways I'd prefer it if Groves v Anderson was on a different card, but top of the bill.

We don't get treated to fights of this nature often enough and these two should be getting shed loads of exposure for fighting each other at his stage of their careers.

To me it's one of the best British matchups of 2010.

Defo butch fair play to both of them especially anderson for stepping up at such late notice aswell,
