ALL ROADS LEAD TO ANFIELD FOR KOP KID CALLUM

-

CALLUM SMITH flew home to Liverpool with his eyes on a bout at his Anfield shrine. After dispatchin­g George Groves in Saudi Arabia on Friday to claim the WBA super middleweig­ht crown, Smith wants a unificatio­n fight in his own backyard and would relish the chance to face either WBO champion Gilberto Ramirez or IBF title-holder Jose Uzcategui. Meanwhile, Groves, who suffered his fourth profession­al loss in Jeddah, says he has no plans to quit the sport. An allBritish bout with James DeGale is a possibilit­y for Groves, 30.
