    1/4 for Froch is buying money. He should be about 1/10

    He got dropped by a sharp left hand. Got up clear headed then went on the attack and won the rest of the round.....

    Has taken bombs from Kessler, Pascal and walked through em.....

    Chin isn't something u can criticise Froch on

    Froch is too quick, too precise, too powerful and too wise.

    Froch by stoppage 8th round.

    Or Froch.Thats already been proved.Ward will be an ATG if he carries on.Regarding Groves against Froch,Id have liked to see him have another 4 or 5 fights against better opposition than he's had,the exception being Degale.This may be a bit early,and Ive got a feeling Froch will cut him up.Hes fought by far the better opposition.But I want Groves to win,if only because of the age factor.

    Groves is a very good prospect, but thats all he is. He hasn't fought anyone in the same league as Carl

    Pretty much this, although i can also see Groves not starting well and getting stopped in the first 4 rounds.

    froch doesnt have amazing hand speed at all, Groves is faster and hits harder

    I'm backing Groves on points! He has sparred with Kessler and I think he will be encourage by how easy Kessler was landing in the later rounds. Groves will come out sharp and have Froch on the back foot and pick his shots wisely. Froch has had a brilliant career to date I just feel his time at the top is coming to an end and The Saint is set to take his belts

    Time will tell, I certainly don't think its a one sided fight I probably have 65/35 in Carl's favour . If groves comes in with a good game plan and doesn't get dragged into a war, then I wouldn't be surprised him winning on points. But I just think Froch will land big in the later rounds and take him out
