I think Froch will take it with the experience hes got. He might start a bit quicker and be more composed. I think he is taking Groves more seriously, 100 per cent.
This time youre not hearing him saying things about Groves and for the last fight, he talked so much rubbish. He got too involved in Groves games. I've not seen much this time.
Lennox Lewis
Im pulling for my guy Froch over Groves in a tough one next week. I think he learned a lot in first fight &will make the proper adjustments.
Martin Murray
Id be there, except it will mess with my preparation. I expect Frochie to win. Hes been in a lot of wars and the last fight was his worst performance. But I think hes still got a big fight in him and will be well up for it. He'll be looking to put it straight. I reckon it will be a pretty close fight
James DeGale
Froch v Groves will be a close one. I'm sitting on the fence but with a gun to my head I'd probably go with Groves.
You never know, because there are so many ifs and buts. That's why the fight is so intriguing: no-one knows.
Kevin Mitchell
I fancy Groves is going to try and keep away, catch him late. He's going to change and I think Carl is going to be fitter, more motivated and won't get hit as easily. It took five or six to find out where he was after that first round but he found his feet and did the job. I was going to sit on the fence and they are both good lads, but if I had to pick one I'd go with Carl Froch

George Groves has to box more. Carl Froch can't and although he is a predator who will hunt you down, he is slowing down and I do see this going the distance. I won't say it's easy because Carl is never easy and it is going to be tough night that will leave them both exhausted, but I am expecting George Groves to win on points this time. Quite comfortably too.
Paul Smith
I'd put Groves as the favourite but I do think it's Froch's to lose - as it was before. I think we could be looking at the same result; a mid to late stoppage for Carl Froch. It is going to be a real barnstormer because Groves has so much energy that he has to take away, if he is going to stop him. But Groves could be over-confident and walk into a big right - and that'd be curtains.
Joe Calazghe
I think a a similar fight to the first one will unfold second time around. I wouldn't put any money on this that's for sure! It's one of those toss-em-up-in-the-air fights and there are question marks about both fighters. But if I have to edge towards someone, I would go for George Groves. And possibly on points. The one thing I do know is this is going to be a hard fight.
John Murray
Even if they don't like each other, I think Groves has earned his respect. But I think Froch will up his game and if he stays away from tha first-round knockdown this time he is going to be fresher like some of his old fights, so I am predicting a Carl Froch win. By stoppage and if he stopped him first time he will do it again - and will look better this time.
Tyson Fury
I've got to say I see Carl Froch knocking him out quickly this time. I've got no grudges against George Groves. I think he's achieved a lot to get where he is at his age but from what I've seen from Carl Froch, he always fights better in rematches. I suppose he is actually quite old for a super-middleweight but it is going to be an entertaining fight...
Ricky Burns
I'm leaning towards Carl Froch. Although the stoppage was a bit premature, you could see that he was starting to unload a bit more and he seemed to be catching him with clean head shots. I just think it's going to be the same scenario in this fight. I think Carl Froch might lose the first few rounds but his strength will take over - especially in the championship rounds.
Alex Arthur
I know that if you can beat Carl Froch with your mind you've got a great chance of beating him with your hands, so will it go the same way as the first one? I think it can go two ways: Groves winning a close points win or Carl will stop him late on again. I'll go with George Groves on a split decision.
Darren Barker
I don't know how this is going to go, I honestly don't know how! But I'm going to go with Carl Froch, just because listening to him of late makes me lean towards him. We don't know what he's going to do after it's over but I think he wants to sign off on a high. I just think he's really going to give it everything. But I don't know how... and no-one else does either!
Nathan Cleverly
I like George Groves, he's a good friend. I felt he would have won the first fight and I geniunely did feel he would have been too sharp for Froch, but I can just see Froch in the rematch, being more switched on, applying the pressure early and I fear he's going to land some of his big shots. I think he can just edge this one. Carl Froch on points.
