Comments Thread For: Carl Froch: Groves Rejected Trilogy Clause in Contract

[bojangles1987]

Hmm why would Froch be talking about a trilogy if he was confident of winning this weekend? I honestly believe deep down he know's he's getting KO'D.

It's commonplace. Champions often have rematch clauses.

I'm sure Groves would want a rematch if he were to lose on Saturday.
If he was to win, i don't think he had any intention of giving Froch a rematch anyway.

Don't really get why there are people hating on one or other of these guys ... I like em both tbh

Since the IBF ridiculously reinstated Groves as the mandatory, he didn't have to agree to a rematch clause.

This prick. Carl froch didnt want this rematch. Its on record he said he doesn't want to go over old ground. He wanted jcc jr in vegas. The ibf his gredy promoter and his pay masters sky forced him into this. They knew this would generate 8 figures.

It was Hearn who wanted rematches -- they're big money in this case.

Regardless the outcome of the rematch, the trilogy clause is only favoring Froch.
The Ugly Kid took the right decision.

and if it's a draw?

Hearn claimed he never asked for a rematch. Typical lying promoter.

Correct. He say's a lot of thing's then seems to forget what he said lol.

Hopefully no Froch-Kessler III in 2015. Wouldn't surprise me at all though, especially if Froch loses. A "farewell match" in Nottingham against his old nemesis sounds predictable.
