Thread: Who does groves defend his british title against?

who do you reckon?

there isnt that many around really although it could be a good idea to slow him down a bit

couple or three semi easy fights to get a bit more experience before they push him on?

I would give Anderson a rematch on ful notice, to be fair it will probably be alot easier this time, other than that it is pretty bare, Smith has moved down to Middleweight.

Tony Jefferies has said he wants to move to 168, that would be a good fight but I doubt Maloney would put him in with Groves.

I agree, I'd like to see Anderson get a crack with a full camp behind him. I think Groves needs to stay at domestic level for a few more fights, there's no point in rushing him. I don't think Booth will to be fair, he's smart in regards to guiding a fighter along, or at least he has been so far.

I heard about the Jeffries fight, I'd like to see it and think it would be entertaining for as long as it lasted, though I think Groves would batter him. I can't see Maloney doing it for that reason, he knows if he can get Jeffries to a decent standard he'll sell very well up here, the last thing he needs to do is put him in with Groves and have him beaten handily this early in his career. I suppose it depends how far he thinks he can take him, personally I don't see him going beyond British level so you never know

It'll be DeGale or he vacates it and moves onto European title level against Wilczewski maybe. Failing those 2 options I reckon just a good well known opponent without a title like Edison Miranda (totally random example but you get my point)

He should vacate and retire from boxing. He has made the world a happier place by humbling the longest face in boxing and the googlist eyes any promoter has.

Who every it is he might find it hard to get motovated after the DeGale fight was so high profile.

Thats what I was thinking. Could be cause for complacency.Degale was ranked as high as 3 in the world in the Wbo and in the top 15 in two others. Maybe Groves should try to get a known name from across the pond like say Green or a Bika type guy.

Well maybe not Bika but I'm just saying he may want to get a known name after his stellar win and not take a step back.
