    I think Groves is underrated, he's a really intelligent fighter with good footwork, he'll have to make sure his stamina is improved for this fight though.

      Everyone always says this but Froch almost always wins. I think his own skills are underrated to some degree too.

        Groves is only 3/1, what the fuck.

            In what sense is it stereotypical? What stereotype does my comment portray?

              His skills in all fairness I do underrate a tad, but still mid rounds against Kessler 2 he was getting outboxed by little work. It's only that Kessler stopped that made Froch excel. Groves is underrated he is a solid fighter with power, youth and speed. He has the tools to make it a bad day for Carl.

                What about the first 3-4 rounds? I'm not sure Groves is elusive enough to beat Froch. I pick Froch by KO in 5-7 rounds.

                  Groves seemed a little unsure in the Sky studio. Not his usual chatty self; like he wasn't sure how to play it.

                  I love Froch but think I like Groves will do well. Groves is exceptional at getting onto front foot from the back foot. I think Carl could walk onto something big if he's not careful. Then again, I can also see Carl absorbing Groves' shots and walking him down.

                  Great fight!

                      This is not by any stretch of the imagination, a walk over for Froch.

                      However, I expect his experience and class to see him through.
