    The bookmakers are being very generous. I too will be loading up on groves tko/win covered by Froch TKO late. It feels almost criminal.

    How can Froch have no chance what so ever..

    Happy to accept Groves is favorite, happy to accept the ratio could be as much as 70:30 fight in favour of Groves.

    But to say Froch has no chance is f**king dumb and you clearly know nothing about boxing.

    Exactly! these casuals are ****ing clueless! Go throw your money on Groves. This is no foregone conclusion. Groves hit Froch with everything and i mean everything and he still came through and was dangerous in the latter rounds. If Froch still has his chin and Groves doesn't get it done by 7 or 8 rounds, then expect Froch to come on. Groves doesn't seem to have the stamina or disipline to box and move for the full 12 rounds, so I'm leaning towards a late stoppage for Froch.

    Of course a Groves win is not out of the question, a 12 round UD being most likely. But there are question marks over Groves in this fight as well as Froch, and the bookies do not seem to be confident with Groves chin or stamina holding up in the latter stages of the fight.

    It's not an easy call.

    Which is why most of us are being sensible and laying it off with a late froch stoppage
    We do know **** about baaaxing

    Cant say Froch has no chance he hurt Groves badly there was a long time left, your basically saying Froch wont hurt him again at all

    Groves will tire and then Froch will come on strong, which is what makes the fight so exciting

    Froch would've been stopped if that drop shot at the end of the first was 10 seconds earlier in the round. He throws himself into right hands with his back leg (!) and his chin out to dry... He will be likely be taken out unless he works on his technique.

    You're better off keeping your money in your pocket or just have the balls to stick to one bet.
    Then again you don't sound so confident after all.

    I think he can fight smarter than he did the first time Froch didnt respect Groves in the first fight, he will now!

    I do find it difficult to see how Froch wins but he always finds a way.
