Comments Thread For: Groves: I'll End Froch in Three, My Coach Says Five!

[yoz]

Groves isn't as confident as he tries to appear. He nailed Froch with everything and couldn't stop him. Froch was shaking like a shitting dog after the knockdown and Groves couldn't end it.

Its a really hard fight to call. Groves needs to fight on the front foot; he studied the Ward fight and saw the blueprint. However, he may try to fight on the back foot this time around, but he can't evade Froch all night.

IMO, either Groves takes this in the first 4 rounds or Froch wins it late.

The way I see it is Groves is perhaps over confident. Carl has shown how tough he is and took Groves best shots early in the fight and still managed to take over the fight up to the stoppage. Carl underestimated Groves, he won't do this time regardless of the result.

Groves has a great chance, but this time I can only see a Froch win by stoppage. Groves has an ok chin but he does have stamina issues. Froch has an iron chin and could go for 15 rounds due to his conditioning.

The Kenny Anderson fight was superb btw! ;-)

Froch is going to stop Groves for real this time. I wouldn't mind if I am wrong that is if Degale pulls through his IBF title eliminator as well.

Keep dreaming. Froch will do the Booty Dew just like last time. Ward is next.

I like this kid Groves for some reason .....I'm not really supposed to because I'm a "closet" DeGale fan...big time!! lol

as far as this fight, Froch looked terrible early on in the early rounds of the first fight....Groves's youth was winning him the fight but it also opened the door for Froch to get back in the fight and that eventually led to the premature stoppage IMO.....Froch is 36 yrs old, he's been in some wars but that's to be expected when you fight nothing but elite level fighters night in night out

Froch is becoming an old WARRIOR....the kid Groves just has to be YOUTHFUL and fight a bit smarter than before and he can win.....Froch is a guy I don't bet against....won't start now but this fight is gonna be his toughest...tougher than both Kessler fights, tougher than the Ward fight, he might have to pull out a Jermaine Taylor type finish to keep his belts.....Froch by late KO

That's not the kind of news I want to hear from Groves. I want Groves to just box with him like he did in the first 5 rounds where he shut Froch out. He got in trouble when he started to exchange.

All he needs to do is box. He's a way better boxer than Froch, he's much quicker too. Stick and move. The fight might be uneventful but at least he'll win.

He might floor Froch, but Froch will get up and finish the job like he did the first time.

I think Groves will run out of steam should it go into the championship rds.

I'm a Froch fan and can't stand Groves but I do actually think this is going to be a huge anti-climax and Groves will win by early KO.

There's nothing Froch can physically do to stop what's going to happen in the early rounds. He'll take shots as he always does but I don't think he survives this time.

[HughJass]

I'm a huge Groves fan and i hope he's playing mind games.He needs to box his way through this fight,he threw the kitchen sink,bath,shower that night and Froch still got up and fought on.

Round six of their last fight is a perfect example.
