Promoter Kalle Sauerland has revealed that British super-middleweight George Groves will be involved in a significant fight on his return to the ring in September.
Groves is coming off the back of successive defeats to IBF and WBA champion Carl Froch, but Sauerland has indicated that the Londoner will face a world-ranked opponent as he attempts to put himself in line for a third world title opportunity.
