    I have high hopes for groves and can see him getting a title one day but having watched some of Roberts fights I can't help feeling it's too soon for George , he is undoubtedly the weakest of the belt holders but he is no walk over and I just can't see George pulling this off.

    I think Groves could beat Steiglitz but that would put him in the sights of the likes of Ward, Froch, Bute who I think would definitely have too much for him at this point.
    I could see someone like Bika giving Groves serious problems also.

    If he manages to avoid these guys then he will have to take the Cleverly route (not fighting Nathan, fighting people like Karpency) which I don't think anyone wants to see.

    Out of all the champs he could face its the easiest chance.

    I think he can do it, showed he's got bottle so I dont see why not.

    Steiglitz is just a basic upright European style fighter , who's good at everything but great at nothing

    I have De Gale and Groves both beating him to be perfectly honest

    I dont think it would mate , Bute and Ward are not going to entertain a fight with George over the next 18 months , Froch and Kessler are on the bones of there ass , there 3 fights (max) out from the end of there career's , in Froch's case , maybe one :D

    He's sparred Dirrell , and held his own , by beating Steiglitz (isnt Kessler actually fighting him though :think) it puts him in a good position

    But i wouldnt be putting any hope into dragging Steiglitz to the UK any time in the next 10 years
