    That's fair dues, tbh there's not much that can be said anyways it would of been 10mins same stuff asked in press conference or questions asked to rile. Pointless really the fight is simmering nicely and actually in a way all this stuff is helping.

    Two different guys, both looking to do damage. I hope Kenny does it good luck to him!.

    Kenny is a great friend of mine in real life. He is a real fighting man and will be so popular when he wins this. He's the least fake person I've met in boxing he really does not give a ****. Hes just himself, great guy and a good laugh. He does look like grounds keeper willy though.

    Anderson doesn't want to face Groves because he got hammered in the last fight imo.

    I just hope Kenny isnt too pumped up for this and can "keep the heid", if you asked Adam Booth which type of fighter he'd like his guys to face I'm pretty sure he'd say a come-forward fighter all day, every day. It suits Booth, hopefully it wont suit Groves.

    my thoughts exactly, i think he will be too pumped up for it, and Groves will do him in a few rounds, if he can keep his calm he has a good chance of winning it,

    Maybe I'm missing something but I don't get what it is about Groves that winds so many peope up. I didn't understand this in their first fight either. I can see people being well and truly rattled by Degale but Groves doesn't seem any more disrespectful than the next fighter. Maybe Kenny is like this before every fight?

    I don't think it is Groves.

    I just think that Kenny is a no-nonsense kind of bloke.

    aye HH I dont watch the amateurs, but my mate(who is a boxing bible!) did & he was always saying how Kenny has freakish power & is as tough as old boots... says some of Kennys amateur KO's were insane! My mate always tipped Kenny for stardom. Even a modern day star like Carl Froch's eyes light up at the mention of his great sparring sessions with Kenny Anderson, no better reference than that!

    I just hope Mr Maree & Mr Thomas can help Kenny realise that huge potential he has, cos his career has been so stop bloody start:-(

    This Groves fight though? As much as I want to, I just cant see Kenny beating this guy. Sad but true.

    Thought Anderson was a mug before especially when he headbutted Groves the last time, but in this interview thought he came across well and professional so fair enough if he just wants to get on with it rather than hype it up, i say good on him.


    Groves UD12 Anderson.

    Tell Kenny to keep up that persona of his when he got interviewed on boxnation, thought he came across really well and likeable. Dont do a R. Bowe and start on fighters before just dosent come across well.

    I think being humble, and naturally professional rather than trash talk is the way to go in all honesty.

    Il be watching him more even after the second Groves fight as he made me more of fan of his, like his down to earth attitude.

    when I watched the weigh-in originally, I just felt Kenny felt a bit disrespected by Groves as Groves was fannying about for ages taking his gear off etc & making Anderson stand around while Groves was giving it his best David Haye impression sauntering around, then Groves eventually came strutting over & Anderson had a 'begbie' moment:hey
