I'm sure when I watched the first fight Froch was coming on stronger as the rounds went buy, and Groves got weeker, so how does Groves stop Froch in the later rounds ? The only way George wins is if he catches Carl early when cold, but I'm sure Froch will not make the same mistake again. I wonder if Groves has got into the punters minds, as I'm sure Froch won the first fight in the 9th
I can actually imagine Froch quitting if Groves took the lead then proceeded to taunt and 'run' in the later rounds. Given their history that would be the ultimate slap in the face for Froch.
I remember one of Groves very early fights the announcer referred to him as "The hammerer of Hammersmith" now that is worse than Grovesy!
then you've been watching someone else's career for the last decade. it's hard to credit some of the utter **** idiots have been spouting about this fight. a coupla months back, froch was a cowardly ducker according to a few on here.
Froch said he underestimated Groves but he did say he was in great shape physically but not mentally. The fact that Froch came on late again tells its own story, he's been outboxed before and won spectacularly, he's just too rough on the inside for Groves for me. Also there was three occasions before the stoppage where Carl got some good punches off and Groves looked hurt but Foster not purposefully gave him some time while he spoke to the fighters and Groves got some chance to recover. Watch the fight again and look out for these moments.
I think he should do the opposite. Drag 'grovesy' into the later rounds as Froch always finishes a fight strongly. Groves has the advantage early in the fight as he is more explosive when fresh. Im going for froch by KO before the 10th in the rematch. Froch was taking those shots well at the end of the first fight and was catching groves.
