    Both are fantastic in fighters but Joe was so special he adapts to his opponents in the ring and works them out, you can't train from this you are born with this. When Joe fought Roy Jones JR he was glued to his chest and never gave Roy a chance to breathe, Jones had never experienced this before and his hand speed was phenomonal , many of Joe's opponents say they never really knew how fast he was until they stood in front of him, Ward as good as he is would'nt be able live with Joe's speed and workrate,this kind of fighter comes along once in a generation. My favourite Calzaghe fight was against Eubank he never was going to lose that fight.

      There's been plenty of upsets lately, this would be the one that makes me happiest!
      I thihk so - Groves is very talented and will win a decision, the question is how will Carl's ego cope seeing that he has self appointed himself as Britians greatest fighter ever.

        Groves by close decision!

          Yawn to all the 'experts' jabbering about Groves having the style to trouble Froch.
          Froch spanks Groves like his mummy used to.

            Froch is fighting Groves? The hell. Easy win for The Cobra.

              Froch would normally win this fight easily. But I don't know if he's not looking down to Groves -- the kid is hungry...

                Roy jones was also way past his prime. I don't think any fighter in history could deal with Roy in his prime. Calzaghe was an excellent fighter, going off resumes though I gotta go with ward even at this stage of his career

                  Froch didn't want to but the IBF ordered the fight. Groves as mandatory.

                    Expect Froch to hurt him and probaly finish him...

                    If he gets hurt before the 5th round then he will probaly get TKO/KO'd

                    If he gets hurt later on then he might survive the storm...

                    Or he could pull off a very well fought fight and win a decision closer.

                      ... Plus the fact that Froch had no lucrative alternative at this point.
