Comments Thread For: Groves Focused on Dirrell Title Shot, Eyes Froch Trilogy

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

George Groves is determined to begin his recovery from back-to-back defeats to Carl Froch by beating Christopher Rebrasse at Wembley Arena on September 20.

The 26-year-old Londoner challenges the Frenchman for his European super-middleweight belt and is aiming to put the memories of the two stoppage defeats to Froch firmly to the back of his mind as he continues his quest for a world title.

Speaking exclusively to Sky Sports News HQ, Groves said: "It's a step in the right direction. It's a big fight for me - I'm challenging for the European title but just as important for me is that it's a WBC final eliminator so win this fight and I'm back in the mix to challenge for a world title.

Anthony Dirrell has the WBC title, George. Not Andre.

How do you lose 2 fights in a row and come right into a title elimination bout?

[Dean_Razorback]

a trilogy? he KO'd you twice (even though the first one was a bad call) move on

Welcome to boxing, where the belts mean nothing and the losses don't matter

How the **** does he get this title shot before DeGale?

DeGale will likely get his shot in February so it will be before Groves.

But seriously this is a joke, he can't just walk in to get a title. He hasn't proven to be world class against top super middleweights. I think Either of the Dirrells could beat him handily.
