If you're right then Smith should fight him now. Groves would be a very good person to have a win against. I think Smith & Warren both want an easier route, and I also would if I was in the same situation.
Well who knows if i am?Just an opinion.I bet its one shared by Smith and Warren as well.Unfortunately,the bs associated with boxing means it probably wont happen.And as a professional,who could blame Smith if he can make more fighting somebody else?

If it was an opinion shared by Smith and Warren they'd be very interested in making the fight, imo. I've already said I don't blame them, so forget about your last sentence.

From what i've seen of Groves, he looks quality, and as soon as I see him show he can take a punch (he gets hit alot), then i'll happily say he could win a world title.
I still think Chunky is a bigger prospect though.
