Hearn talks to Skysports about Froch v Groves 2

Froch might not want the fight but Hearn defiantly does anybody that says he doesn't is talking out of there arse

 

Has Groves left Eddie now? He doesnt get a mention in respect of what his other options are.

In terms of risk/reward id say Chavez Jr is the best option for Froch

If he wants to the best in his division then Ward

If he wants to be 'honourable' then Groves

Not sure where Golovkin fits in the strategy really, big puncher but not much money in that fight-compared to the other 3 and wouldnt raise his US profile more than Ward or Chavez Jr fights

 

Jesus Christ, I wish Carl would let the Ward fight go! If there was EVER a fighter that was all wring for Carl, it'd be Andre Ward.

Take the money (Groves fight) and run!

 

Eddie wants the rematch badly, its will be huge in the UK but he will be careful not to push Carl too hard, he knows the Froch ego

So he will push gently and subtley so if it happens Froch feels like it was all his own desire to have the rematch and no one else influenced his decision

I honestly dont think Carl really wants the Ward rematch, what does he think that he can do differently agianst an injury free Ward ?

Yes there is the fight against Chavez but is it really that big ?

Dont see Golovkin generating enough cash yet, but could be a good fight

Carl could still beat Groves in a rematch, he'll have more respect for Grives as a boxer now, and Groves has to make sure he doesnt get involved in a brawl again. Groves has to be more intelligent next time, and respect Carls durablility . Knocking him down dont mean you gonna knock him out.
Plus surely the ref will be on Carls side again in regards to the dirty and illegal stuff he showed in abundance in the first fight.


REMATCH & GROVES VICTORY IN 2014 PLEASE

 

Usual pattern of promotions,denials now out of the way,we now appear to be getting down to business.The rematch makes sense in every way.

 

Don't see how Froch - after being thoroughly outboxed by Groves for nine rounds - can sincerely talk up a Ward fight. Surely no one wants to see it?

 

Seems fast car is backing his mate Carl into a corner by constantly talking up the rematch. My biggest concern about it would be Froch's psyche going into it as he nearly cracked up last time and you can imagine what groves would be like this time.

 

Chavez Jr would be a seriously big money fight. Froch's split in that fight would be up there with what he would get fighting Groves.

Eddie of course gets to be promoter for any fight in the UK and that's a lot of coin. That's part of the reason he doesn't want Froch travelling.

 

Chavez Jnr sounds a big money fight with all the Mexican PPV money he would generate, but it doesn't work that way. Chavez Jnr wouldn't split half of that with Froch no way. Froch rely's on PPV money from Sky Box-Office and the Chavez fight wouldn't generate half of what he would get for Groves. That's why Hearn wants the rematch because it will generate more money all round for him and Froch.
Anyway Chavez is apparently interested in the winner of Abraham-Steiglitz.

 

Lmao at fast car selling Froch down the river. Hearn wants a piece of that Groves pie while he can get it, the manlove between Froch and Hearn in the build up was cringeworthy no wonder GG is off to Golden Boy

Interesting to see the choice Carl makes here... Half empty arena in Las Vegas where nobody really gives two shits about him or a sold out 80,000 capacity stadium. Personally I doubt Froch goes anywhere near a ring with George Groves in it ever again

 

Froch wouldn't make a fraction against Chavez what he would against Groves

Not sure why people assume Chavez-Froch would be PPV anyway, two guys coming off controversial wins, would be a tough sell Froch is not the Global superstar he likes to think of himself as

 

It's clear to me that Froch has stated to Hearn that he must not under any circumstances sign Groves- that's why Hearn always says regarding signing Groves "I want to make Froch/Groves II before signing Groves". I suspect Froch is on a fight to fight deal with Matchroom and effectively holds all the cards.

Froch has at best has three fights left, why on earth would Hearn not sign Groves unless there were other circumstances?

If Froch is manipulating Hearn then that speaks volumes about his man management style which I would suggest needs to change.

 

Hearn is playing 'the blame game'. I mean he is just a mealy mouthed slippery and basically he's telling everybody if the fight doesn't go ahead don't blame me. But the truth is Hearn has the biggest part to play in the rematch (£) and i find It interesting he said we have to get the ego's right and the mix right?
We know Froch is the ego so the mix must mean the terms he wants Groves to sign if he wants the rematch. So I wont be surprised if Groves doesn't accept his cheap ass offer, and Hearn and Froch can play 'the blame game' and point the finger at Groves for the rematch not happening whilst they hype up their next fight.
That's their plan.
