Looks like Groves has vacated.

Paul Smith has lost his last two title fights by KO, one real early.

Why does he get first picks?

 

I think some people overstate how well Anderson was doing. He was pressuring Groves, but not having much success until he got his man on the ropes. Other than the 30 seconds around the knockdown, Groves was winning that fight. And once he got hurt, he put his gameplan back together and put a hurt on Anderson while the older man was wasting his punches.

I'm tired of Kenny's excuses around this fight. He blew his load trying to take George out and he got battered in return. He could have been in the best shape of his career and he couldn't have sustained the pace he'd set early on.

As others have said, move on.

 

Nice for Kenny Anderson, at least this way he has a chance of winning and retaining the title instead of being brutally knocked out.

 

Yep, and Adam Booth is adamant that the Anderson camp had notice

 

if it is anderson v smith id be rooting for a double KO
