    Comments Thread For: Froch-Groves: BoxingScene Staff Predictions

    One week after Andre Ward reminded boxing fans, media and critics alike why he is regarded as among the best two fighters on the planet, Carl Froch is given the chance that he still remains number two with a bullet in the super middleweight division.

    The brash Brit looks to pick up his fourth straight post-Super Six victory on Saturday evening. His next defense of his unified belts comes against an unbeaten challenger more than 10 years his junior in George Groves. The bout headlines at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester, England, airing live on Sky Sports in the UK and on Wealth TV in the United States (Saturday, 3:00PM ET).

    Froch (31-2, 22KO) has become a cult hero thanks to his no-nonsense style and willingness to not take on the toughest challenges, but ran after them full steam ahead. His first performance following his loss to Ward in the Super Six finals was a five-round demolition of then-unbeaten Lucian Bute last May, a performance that took Froch’s career to new heights.

    Usually a unanimous crew picking 1 guy results in the other one winning. Groves to win!

        I'm in agreement. I like Froch but this fight now is giving me a Donaire-Rigondeax vibe.

          I agree with those that say Groves took the fight too soon. With a few more bouts of seasoning under his belt (one of them possibly being against Stieglitz) he would have been much more competitive.

          Froch should win by knockout.

            I notice that there are several matchup's lately between champions or top fighters against opponents many years younger...

            And I suppose that froch's "bullet" really means Froch's "billet'...

                  groves has won the first 3 rounds and staggered froch at least 3 times.
