11/23 Carl Froch vs. George Groves: Who do you got?

[D-MiZe]

Yeah, I hope the beatdown isn't so bad as to take something significant out of Groves for the future.



Froch will gain a lot of hype from another KO win setting up a Summer '14 clash with Ward or Kessler. It's another top 10 win on his resume too.

As it stands, it's not a top 10 win.

I fail to see how this benefits Froch, 'hype' isn't a valid reason. He could fight any other Englishman and receive as much attention.

I think it's going to be a fight than some are predicting. On the one hand, Froch has always had the most bother with boxers, and Groves looked pretty polished in his last fight - he's really improved since fighting De Gale. On the other hand, there is still a slight question mark over his chin (after the scare vs Anderson), and at some point he'll be liable to be tagged hard by Froch - I can't see him outboxing him for the whole 12 rounds at this stage in his career, so when (and I believe it is when, not if) Froch drags him into deep water, then we'll see how good he's really become. So, having said all this, I would agree with most others, and predict a Froch win by stoppage in the last few rounds, but Groves coming out of it with a lot of credit for his performance.
