Re: George Groves says "Big News on the way"??????
Come on team Groves! Don't keep us waiting?
A defence of the British title against a solid contender would do just fine for me (but not against a former opponent), but then again Groves has always strived to stretch himself, so it could be someone tasty.
Groves hasn't managed to secure an EBU title shot has he? That would be big news.

2010 FOTY rematch a backward step??; kenny would take it in a heart beat.wesley05 wrote:That's a big backward step surly, no offence but he can call out some big names after whooping degaleTko1980 wrote:Heard a rumor Rematch with K Anderson is on the cards!!!
Re: George Groves says "Big News on the way"??????
True in away,but he wants to defend his British title and there aren`t to many credible options out there.There are some people out there who thought before the Degale fight anyway that Anderson would have a decent chance against Groves with a proper training camp.I think Groves is a class above but it would be an okay defence.wesley05 wrote:That's a big backward step surly, no offence but he can call out some big names after whooping degaleTko1980 wrote:Heard a rumor Rematch with K Anderson is on the cards!!!
Re: George Groves says "Big News on the way"??????
I am a Groves fan but Sakio eats him alive. Groves was bloodied and rocked at least once against Degale, so a pure hard nut like Bika who left both Calzaghe and Ward with shiners bleeding leaves Groves a bloody mess on the canvas. He wants to stay the hell away from him. He needs his 'man strength' before he considers that kind of fight.DavidPayne wrote:Bika is a mother-fornicator of a fight for Groves, be astonished if he takes that!clopixolacuphase wrote:I can't believe Bika's so far down in the top 25. Just above Allan Green? Although he lost both fights on the scorecards he gave both Joe Calzaghe and Andre Ward- absolute elite fighters in the division- plenty to think about. I've never seen the Bute fight but I'm sure he gave him hell too. He's somebody nobody look like they enjoy being in the ring with. So putting him in with Bika would be the worst move.lefthook82 wrote:Bika would destroy Groves. Come on, anybody who is not elite gets splattered by Bika
On the other hand I thought Jeff Lacy lost his comeback fight didn't he? I hope he made enough money from his short time at the top of the tree to retire, because he's shot and I don't want to see him fighting anymore. He seems an alright bloke. He got beat up by Roy Jones! I hope it isn't him.
A Kenny Anderson rematch is perfectly acceptable at this stage in the game.
I wonder how competitive those sparring sessions with Andre Dirrell were?
I wrote this rambling biut about Bika a year ago.

both had there excuses & valid one's for that matter, so setting the record straight aint no backward step. he should be having a rematch against degale really if truth be told.

No way would DeGale have given Groves a rematch, you can understand why Groves would not do the same.hurlock wrote:Jeff Thomas wrote:2010 FOTY rematch a backward step??; kenny would take it in a heart beat.wesley05 wrote: That's a big backward step surly, no offence but he can call out some big names after whooping degale

degale went to liverpool & dethroned the hometown boy & in his first defence he takes potentially the best out there & grants him a shot :!:

DeGale thought he was gonna wipe Groves off his shoe and shoot of to the stars but he's still there by his side.
Re: George Groves says "Big News on the way"??????
Kenny anderson saved that farce of a show against groves, while haye had a joke with a force it was kenny that saved it at late notice, if hes defending his titles and its not against deagle it should be against kenny, fair is fair, give kenny his full camp and groves can settele any dispute he has over whos better man
