    Too fast, too slick, too skilled for Froch seems to be the general consensus amongst boxing experts, not just in BM :good

    Here's an IF for you,

    If Froch does beat GG this time round and does it without any nonsense will he get all the praise he deserves from the haters on here or will they just say GG was never proven at world level so its not a great win.

    I'm not a Froch hater he's had a great career and deserves huge respect as a fighter. If he beats Groves I will give him all the credit in the world. I just don't see it happening

    too tough and too durable against a man too fragile is the consensus of at least half.

    That is a huge IF in my opinion but IF Froch beats Groves i will take my hat off to him coz he will have beaten 1 hell of a fighter.

    Too fragile? If i'm not mistaken it was Froch who was tasting the canvas not Groves. Froch is very fragile in this fight, he will be very negative because he knows that Groves has the power to hurt him. Groves ate Froch best shots all night long and never went down once

    I said boxing experts, not Froch fanboys.

    The only thing that looked fragile in the first fight was Carls chin

    Both are excellent fighters. You can make a great case for either fighter winning the rematch.

    Just hope its a great fight and doesn't end early.

    Thats because Groves can only Lose this fight himself.

    The way he was making Froch miss and look silly, punishing him at every oppurtunity, showed the gulf in boxing ability between the two.

    I think Groves wins this one widley on points

    Touché. To say at least half of pundits are picking Froch is just a bare faced lie

    If Groves doesn't gas out and slow down, I can't see how he doesn't win.
