Callum Smith and George Groves could be in line for a big domestic super-middleweight showdown next year at Anfield.
Smith and Groves were victorious on Saturday on the undercard of Cleverly-Bellew II a the Echo Arena in Liverpool.
Groves set up a world title shot against WBC champion Anthony Dirrell with an unimpressive stoppage of Denis Douglin after Smith stepped up in class to defeat Nikola Sjekcola on points, something only Arthur Abraham and Sakio Bika had managed before.
And Smith's trainer Joe Gallagher believes a clash between the two at the home of Liverpool FC could be a goer as early as autumn 2015.
"George Groves is in our weight division and in our governing body. He fought the other night and that is a fight we are itching for," Gallagher said at the opening of a new residential school for students with autism in Northwich.
"I know he's got the world title shot first, and hopefully he goes and wins that against Dirrell, and Callum Smith will be knocking on the door and banging at his heels for a shot at that title.
"I think that's a good fight, possibly in autumn time next year. Callum Smith and George Groves at Anfield."
