I don't necessarily believe that Froch is on the decline. If you think about it he has been on fire the last 3 fights and to say he is declining because he looked bad takes away from Groves. I think he greatly underestimated Groves and paid for it big time. I think the rematch could serve as more of a chess match than anything. Now that Froch knows Groves is for real he should not give him the same opportunities and he "should" be able to cope with the speed difference much better. Either way I would watch it again in a heart beat.

I think Groves should be favored in the rematch knowing what we know now.
That said, Froch has a lot of balls, heart and a sturdy chin and should not be dismissed altogether.
My prediction is that he will fight Ward in a rematch before he gives Groves another shot. (we know Ward takes him to school again)Comment

I believe him, Froch will get knocked out this time, last time he was saved by the bell, don't think he will be lucky next time aroundComment

Froch will come out in a rematch more cautious imo
Groves will take advantage of this and land them big rights early, if Froch gets caught early in the round it's overComment

I see Froch stopping him again in a rematch. Probably a similar type of fight with Froch doing a little better. But somewhere, Froch usually begins to connect (if your name isn't Andre Ward) and Groves has shown he can be hurt by Froch down the stretch.Comment

This is kinda silly, but Groves gave it his all-his A+ game the first time. He looked great, BUT...anytime he got hit, he was hurt and retreating to the ropes. I don't see a rematch in Groves favor.
If anything, I think Froch may have underestimated Groves and didn't respect his power enough.
After the 6th round Groves punches weren't doing the same damage and he looked like he was fading.Just because he had a great performance, doesn't make him the winner or better.Comment
