how does it increase the liklihood of the fight happening
Fwank had the date and venue booked, if he can't make that date it'll have to go to purse bids again, which someone else could win, or Groves could vacate. Right now they can't get the fight done.

I really don't see a point in the rematch anyway. Groves won convincingly enough first time around, having had one bad round. Kenny has also done fuck all since to warrant a mandatory position

I do understand what you're saying and I agree with Groves that Anderson has become mandatory because Groves has knocked off everyone else but having said that Degale otr Anderson should be the mandatory so either vacate or defend it

its an unlucky situation that Groves still has the belt when injured etc but what is he supposed to do. He probably is above domestic level now but at least Kenny will definitely be the next to fight for the title. Just need to sit tight these things happen in boxing.

I'd rather him just vacate. At this stage, Anderson is a massive step backwards.

Said before and will say again. Groves shouldn't be fighting Anderson, Degale should! Paul Smith fought Degale and then Groves. Would like to see Anderson fighting Degale.

Groves fights smarter v Anderson should they ever get it on. See no other hand raised but Groves. Stoppage again with relentless body shots. Of course its fashionable to say Anderson wins and that Groves is avoiding him. Yeah I suppose going for a world title when offered a chance and not fighting a guy you've ko'd makes no sense.

How is it 'fashionable' to saythat Anderson wins? You can't surely think you're going against the grain by picking Groves to win? I don't understand your point about Smith either and what thats got to do with Degale fighting Anderson.

If the fight happens, fair enough IMO. He gave Groves plenty of problems but likewise Im not too disappointed if it doesnt take place. Ill be interested to see Groves' next career paths when he gets back

When this debate last wad aired it was on ESB and many wanted Kenny to win and claimed he would if he had a better run into fight I.e not late notice.

Groves fighting Anderson proves nothing imo whereas Degale fighting him does. Many enjoyed comparing how Groves fought v Smith following Degales win over him. I'd like to see Degale I'm with Anderson and the winner facing Groves possibly. Degale v Anderson would be a good matchup and would be a good fight to gauge Degale imo.

Many think Groves is ducking Anderson. If ducking Anderson and pursuing a world title fight is ducking then I'm at a loss.

Of course Groves is favourite and for good reason as he's ko'd Kenny. If Degale wants to force a fight with Groves or prove that he's better than him then face Kenny and make easy work of him. Just like Groves did Smith. That's my angle.
