    Fight reminds me of Calzaghe vs Starie. I'm not buying the hype.

    Groves is going to throw 1-2's all night, and catch froch then kinda run, he aint getting involved in a brawl.

    Lets see if froch has better footwork.

    I think froch is limited, but his iron jaw has got him to the top.

    Groves sd. He will survive

    Time for my username prediction to come true. :deal

    Groves has always had the talent to pick up a world strap. Fighting Froch is far from the easiest way of going about it but the kid has definitely got a chance.

    Can see Groves on the back foot countering Froch. Think he will target the body also; which is pretty much the only way to go to hurt Froch. Can see a tight decision going Groves' way.

    Saying that Froch could quite easily Bute him :conf

    Froch is a great fighter, but he can get outboxed. I was impressed with Groves the way he fought Degale. Now Degale is not as tough as Froch, but he too is awkward and probably quicker than Froch. I think Groves will surprise a lot of people here.

    I think it's closer than a lot of people think; and will likely go the distance. Froch has a way of gaining the attention of the judges through aggression and sheer volume and I think that will likely continue in this fight.
