    Full story http://www.worldfightnews.com/groves-headlines-wembley-arena/

    British and Commonwealth Super-Middleweight Champion George Groves will headline the Wembley Arena on Friday 14th September.

    "Then on my return, if it's going to be Anderson, then I don't need motivating to destroy him,"

    "He's been mouthing off ever since the fight was cancelled in March, I'll have great pleasure in giving him another beating."

    The Wembley card will feature two further big title fights: Billy Joe Saunders' first defence of his Commonwealth Middleweight Championship that he won in quick time at the Royal Albert Hall, and unbeaten prospect Bradley Skeete goes for the first title in his career when he takes on Chas Symonds for the Southern Area Welterweight title.

    Alot of people rate Anderson, but i can't see him being anything better than British level. Groves will stop him again inside 6 rounds

    Does Anderson even deserve this fight? Fair enough Groves pulling out was a shitter, especially if he wasn't really injured but has he fought an eliminator or even anyone close to British title level?

    Where are the Paul Smith's, Tony Dodson's, Fielding's or even a Paul David.

    In short, he's already been knocked out by Groves and has fought no one at British level:

    It's got the makings of mismatch. Again.

    Groves was put in his arse and was awful at the beginning. He will want to show how much he has improved etc. Groves should fight Degale again :)

    Will Anderson give Wayne Reed a rematch?

    I read the other day he wants to 'punch him in the throat'. That will stoke the fires some more :yep.

    Smith vs Anderson in September, got a feeling Groves will pull out and take on winner of WBO title fight.

    I don't see anything else than a Groves win, Kenny will try early on but imo will be stopped again but maybe after taking a bit of a beating first

    I though Groves was fighting some Mexican out in the US on a Golden Boy show? Or am I late on this one?
