British super-middleweight George Groves has been pencilled in to compete before the end of the year by promoter Kalle Sauerland.
Groves became mandatory challenger for Anthony Dirrell's WBC title by beating Christopher Rebrasse for the European belt last month, but Sauerland has revealed that the Londoner will fight another opponent before facing the American in 2015.
@StGeorgeGroves will definitely be out again this year before the Dirrell fight in the spring. News in the next 7-10days. #ReturnOfTheSaint

The 26-year-old has lost his previous two shots at a world title, both to IBF and WBA title holder Carl Froch.
