Nice! Hall vs Webb will be a good-un. Groves Anderson could be as good as last fight. Buckland vs Truscott i take Buckland to win that.
Anderson is mandatory for the British title, don't know if the Commonwealth belt is on the line or not...
with the fight going out to tender. is it possible sky could actually show the Groves vs Anderson rematch?
Groves will beat Anderson much easier this time, what learning has Anderson done since the last fight? None he has had 3 easy fight. Groves on the other hand has had 3 good quality opponents and has been getting better every time i have watched him. I think Anderson would be better to have a couple of bouts against decent opposition before fighting Groves again.
The BBBofC keep the domestic scene alive. They are one of the few commissions/boards/orgs in the world to order the best fights out there. Groves vs Anderson II is a great one. Hall vs Webb is good but I fear Webb may be a tough fight for Hall at this stage. I think Hall needs to rematch the guy who beat him. The guy is poo, Hall can avenge that loss but also get his jab, head movement etc going. Webb lost to Prince but Webbs still a good fighter. Who knows, Webbs might have lost alot of confidence following the loss. Good to see Buckland back, he comes to fight.
Hope Sam Webb can get the win, should be no problem. I'd like to see him face Brian Rose and get his belt back.
