    Not so dissimilar to the last one stylistically, though without the KD (and hopefully the OTT commentary).

    Groves will come out fast look fairly sharp through the early rounds, but gradually the pace and Frochs body attacks will first slow him then break him down.

    TKO 8 for Froch.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Froch stops him late as you can never discount him but I'm picking Groves here. I think he outboxed Froch for the majority of the first fight and Im not sure what adjustments Froch can make to change that. Groves has more room for improvement and will have learned from the experience. 15/8 is a huge price for Groves to win imo

    Maybe if HBO picks it up.
    I get the feeling that Jim Watt isn't a card carrying member of the Carl Froch fan club.:lol:

    Predicated Froch late TKO last time...

    Will predict Groves SD/UD...

    Froch literally had no defence in the last fight. Groves got abit tired and strayed off gameplan. he will only improve. Don't see how Froch can adjust...His hands down defence which normally relied on footwork was totally useless...was hilarious watching a normally solid guy turn turn into a brawler slugging away. He said he "systematically broke groves down" in the rounds leading up to the joke stoppage...he didn't systematically do anything lmao! I always root for Froch (don't know why... I don't really like him..But I normally enjoy watching him box) but I feel Groves is just coming to take his place...

    I'm glad this rematch happens. I think Froch wins this fight by legit stoppage in the lately rounds.

    Groves seems to have questionable stamina and a vulnerable chin. I'm going with a stoppage win for Froch here, TKO round 7-10.
