I believe George Groves beats Andre Ward

[greenwitch]

Groves isn't gonna be there to get countered..

So i'm unsure what solution Ward has. other than coming forward and still getting picked off by Groves on the backfoot

Groves movement is a real problem

[greenwitch]

Dan i was about to message you. giving it the Mark Skollins quote lol

[Mike D]

I'd probably give Groves a punchers chance but I think Ward wins 99/100 times.

Lol that's not much of a puncher's chance

[greenwitch]

What i like about Groves is.

The self belief he has. He doesn't care about walking in there as the badguy, or being drawn into mindgames. He truly believes in himself and what he's capable of doing.
Confidence and charisma takes you far.

Granted he got over confident in there with Froch, tried working far too hard. Needed a few rounds in a different gear. You can't start the fight in one gear and keep it the same for 12 rounds. or even try going up another gear, because you think you're hurting the guy..

its not amateur, and he gassed badly.

But still, he's a terrific fighter.

[greenwitch]

And i think. If he brings that erratic & aggressive movement and handspeed against Ward. And really starts fast, i think the same is going to happen to Ward as it did with Froch

It's a horrible style to be in there with

[greenwitch]

I doubt Ward has fought anyone with Groves's style since Amateur/Olympic level.

I may be wrong on this.

I'd make sure he was getting plenty of sparring with elite amateurs/golden gloves or whatever it is in the states, those boys. No good trying to box typical plodding professionals.

And then being stuck in there with groves

[Earl-Hickey]

i've not seen either guy fight anyone like the other so it's hard to make a prediction

[F!x]

Groves could give Ward problems it's true, he proved he's at a high level in the Froch fight and elevated himself to possibly the top 5 in the division. It means he's a legit contender and a live threat to anyone including Ward.

[Jloro]

Ward beats him down with ease. Groves vs Rodriguez would be interesting. Rodriguez probably takes it since he has the much better chin

[Jloro]

Lol so getting stopped by Froch= Beating Ward
