Official Froch vs Groves II Master Discussion Thread

[Dr.Eisenfaust]

George Groves has won the mental battle long ago folks! Stylistically, Groves is a nightmare for Froch. Froch can only win if he relies on his stamina, chin and power punches.

I bet Froch is thinking about putting pressure on Groves. If Froch does that, he might get knocked out cold before the 7th.

I thought Groves would win the first fight, and I believe he is the favorite in the second fight. And I am trying to be neutral as much as possible...

Watched a bit of first fight - groves' speed visibly reduced as the fight went on.

Anyone going to Groves/Joshua/Mitchell's open session at Westfield this week?

I'm thinking of going mate.

It was noticeable from round 7 onwards.

Despite being outboxed for most of it, Froch put in some good body shots which possibly told later on but there is also an argument that Groves has a history of gassing in fights. No surprise Froch's body shots were not credited by Jim Watt, as he had clearly nailed his colours to the George Groves mast.

If it rains on Saturday night, do they put a canopy up or just do a Haye-Chisora and fight through it?

Pretty sure Hearn mentioned something about a canopy, a la Haye vs. Klitschko.
