Comments Thread For: Froch: If Groves Brawls, Sucker Punch Will KO Him

[jas]

This is the most interesting fight coming up IMO..

I think froch took groves lightly in the first fight and got caught.. I think he will be much sharper and prepared this time around... I think he has enough in the tank to get past groves..

i agree SAA

can you name any world champions who had a questionable chin and stamina issues like groves does?

All of Frochs fights are exciting because he has very low skill at world level, but an iron will and excellent conditioning.

Unfortunately he seems to think that what he does have makes it unnecessary for him to have any humility.

I'm not an expert on groves, only seen 5 or 6 of his fights,,, he is a young fighter, so his nerves and adrenaline will cause him to tire quicker, but that can be changed with more experience...
Not sure about his chin.. I don't think it's bad like Seth Mitchell, David price, etc
I just think he got caught with shots when tired...

World champs that had stamina problems and suspect chins,, a young wlad, and he improved upon it.. Also hasim Rahman, Lucian bute

As MMegatron stated - Froch has superb conditioning and an iron will. He can always find a way to win if he makes it his style of fight. If it goes to the trenches again then I can't see anything but a Froch win. Groves was excellent in the first fight but he tired quickly and Froch came back into it.

I also think Froch underestimated Groves in the first fight so I can't see that happening here.

Don't get me wrong, I like Groves and he showed excellent talent - more so than Froch - but he doesn't have the engine or chin of Froch. He will need to outbox him early on and frustrate Froch into making mistakes.

Either way it's a cracking rematch!

Wladimir Klitschko?

Probably the most dominant champion of all in this era of boxing.

My gut says Groves will win because he was so much better in the first fight. But you never know.

Just hoping for a fair outcome as I like both guys.
