    Can see,but would not put money on!!!! fury and Groves wins,with size and age being the decisive factors.

    It's not looking good for either.

    Fury is more likely I think as he has some serious physical advantages.

    Fury also isn't afraid to lose so he won't be hiding. That gives him a small possibility of an upset. Haye will run about for a couple of round I'm guessing so the fight goes 3 or 4 rounds. Enough time for Fury to maybe pull something out of the bag, not likely though.

    I cant imagine Groves outboxing Froch for the full 12, he cannot outfinesse him completely, at some point Carl will catch up with him and when he does i think its over. I cant see anyway Groves can stop Carl.

    Fury i can see stopping Haye,wearing him down or just knocking him out. Haye doesng like to work at any kind of pace. But i still expect Haye to win.

    Fury. It is possible to imagine Fury stopping Haye but not Groves stopping Froch.

    If Wlad couldn't come close to doing it why would Fury have a better chance?

    Wlad and Haye both boxed very cautiously in that one. Can't see Haye-Fury being so cagey.

    If he walks forward Haye will just catch him and knock him out anyway.

    This is a massive mis-match imo.

    I think Groves is more closely matched to Froch than Fury is to Haye. But he still wont win in my humble opinion.

    Fury by way of Groves only hope being knocking out Froch who as we've seen has a granite chin. I really can't see how Groves can win any other way, the same probably goes for Fury but he can definitely hurt Haye if he manages to get stuck into him.

    Nah, his only hope is to outbox Froch over 12 rounds and not get caught or run out of steam.

    He hasn't got a hope of getting the decision.

    Froch is too active with the jab for Groves to attempt to dance his way to a decision. Froch will also pin Groves at some point and Groves has shown himself to be very vulnerable, he won't hack Frochs heat.

    His only hope is getting the timing spot on and walking Froch into a monster shot.
