Froch Vs Groves II

[LacedUp]

Yep, I think if he fights on the back-foot he wins, provided he has the discipline to stick at it for 12 rounds.

Problem with that is, once Groves gets hit - he loses his temper.

And Froch doesn't fight well on the back foot - as has been proven before, incl. the last Groves fight.

So I'm kind of undecided.

Could go either way for me.

If Groves fights 10% smarter than he did in the last fight he should win.

In a strange way Froch has it all to prove, he didn't convince in the last fight although he had a few flashes which won him the fight.

I think it could be one of those fights where the torch is passed to the younger more hungry fighter but it will need a hell of a performance from Groves to take Froch's title.

Looking forward to this already.

If we go by the last fight, then Groves is probably going to need a stoppage win.

To think that he was only ahead 76-75 on two judges scorecards.. I mean, what were they watching? Absolutely appalling judging.

I'll be travelling down again to watch it live. Fastcar announced that prices start at £30 for nosebleeds, which would suggest to me £100 minimum per ticket is necessary to get any sort of view.

Choosing Groves again. Whilst I think the surprise factor is gone in this fight, you can't just gobble right hand bombs like that and not digress somewhat. I don't think George took anywhere near that amount of punishment, I think he'll become a better fighter from the first experience.

Needs a solid undercard fight this time.

Ticket prices look very reasonable. Gonna buy for 80/100 quid in the stands I think. Should get a decent view.

I am ready to answer this one!!

Froch to win inside the distance

Still not sure if to go to this one, As I'm guessing you won't see much! And if it's in 3d woohooo

Had the strangest dream about this match-up.

Fight starts with Groves taking the centre of the ring, throwing and landing the straight-right continuously, flooring Froch 4 times on route to a 2nd round KO.

Man, I hope that doesn't happen; yet, the closer we edge towards this fight and the more I see of Froch and rewatch his fights, I get the impression he's in decline. He looked like an old man in the latter rounds of Kessler II and was, quite frankly, awful in the first 5 against Groves.

It'd be horrible way to end his career, with a stoppage loss - it'd **** all over his legacy and warrior image.

Still, WAR FROCH!

Spotted The Saint at Twickenham today watching the rugby....in a nice VIP seat and looking relaxed and cool.

I do like the kid and it is good to see a fighter being seen out and about at these sort of big events....he's got the star quality.

Maybe he's taking in the big outdoor stadium atmosphere before his own date at Wembley; bit of weekend research?

im thinking about heading over to this, dont have much time to get mates talked into it though.

Looking at the layout i think a £100 ticket will be needed in the stand. Which would be better, pitch side, or further up in the 1st tier/front of the 2nd tier?

Also on the matchroom website tickets are going on sale on seeticket.com. Never heard of them. Are they not going on ticektmaster? Anyone booked of this crowd before? Can u select your seat like buying rugby tickets or do u just pick a price section and they just allocate your seat for u?
