Hall of Famer Joe Calzaghe is predicting that Carl Froch will have a very tough night in the rematch with George Groves. The rematch takes place on May 31 and 80,000 fans are expected at Wembley. Last November, Froch retained his IBF and WBA 'regular super middleweight titles with a controversial ninth round stoppage. Froch was down hard in the first round and Groves was ahead on the cards at the time of the TKO.
"Groves was in control and dropped Froch heavily in the first round. I thought the referee stopped it a bit premature," Calzaghe told Sky Sports.
"It's going to be a tough one. [Groves] has to fight the same way. I think it's going to be difficult for Carl. I think he struggles with movers and boxers. I think its important that he stays in and out on his feet and counters Froch with that right hand over the top. I'm sure Froch will be more prepared for this fight, he could have underestimated Groves. He will be 37-years-old, Froch, and Groves will be full of confidence."
