    He reads these forums, your kind of post has made him want to brutalize the Ginger one even more. I just don't get how anybody can think what you thought about the fight though.

    Are you sure you have Froch and Groves mixed up?. No problems though as its your opinion and you are allowed it.

    Yeah I can imagine. He doesn't want to beat Groves to protect his legacy and further him improve his career. He wants to beat him because SOME ARSEHOLE ON ESB DIDN'T THINK HE COULD!!!!

    I genuinely think Froch will get stopped by the ref. Its my opinion, I put a bit of money on it. If i'm wrong I'll accept it. No skin off my nose really. You got a bit of a thing for Froch have you? Hell of a lot of posts from yourself forcing this 'It's a mismatch, Groves is getting flattened etc etc' attitude on the forum. Seem a little bit anti that I have an opinion that differs from yours?

    We'll see tomorrow wont we?

    I see it as a mismatch yes, i have 100 quid on Froch winning by stoppage. yes we shall see soon. I have no problems with people thinking groves will win, i don't understand it but no problems.

    froch will struggle to pin groves down early on and groves will bank a few rounds , but once it developes into a real toe to toe Froch will come out on top and probably stop groves i think either round 9 or 10 ish :)

    The smart money is on Froch and rightly so, but writing Groves off is daft.

    If he can hit the ground running, get his feet set so he can get in and out of range quick + effectively and work with angles (which he has shown the capabilities of doing), Froch is going to have a lot to think about.

    Froch has a chin, but Groves doesn't throw pitter patter shots.

    I think Froch will win, you have to favour him but I honestly think Groves will have his moments and that will make the fight worth watching. With Groves power their is even an outside chance he could convert a good moment into a KO, I think froch may be too proud to take a back foot if he does get hurt.

    Obviously you have doubts about your boy pulverising Groves? Blowing all this certainty out of your arse and only laying down a days wage? Pfffft

    A few people saying a loss is no big deal to Groves.Well,I think it would be.He is undefeated at the moment.Apart from the fact that he's getting his shot and will be well paid,a defeat won't help,he should have waited.Froch is a massive step.A loss to Groves would also be a gigantic setback for Carl.Makes it all the more intriguing,but I can't see Froch blowing this.Hes a consummate pro.This as someone who would rather see George win.

    Carl will destroy Groves

    I cant believe people are wasting their time with the ifs,buts and maybes.

    Carl beats Groves moves on to a bigger fight and Groves starts working his way up again,maybe a rematch with Degale or more winnable fights like Steiglitz or Abraham.

    The consequences of a loss are obviously far greater for Froch.

    He maybe institutionalised if he loses this,thats why there is no ifs.

    I think people are underestimating Frochs boxing skills, his last fight against Kessler he got behind his jab and just boxed his head off, now groves has good ability but I don't think he can go 12 rounds without getting caught on the ropes and I can see the ref stopping it, Bute style towards the 7-9 round

    Yeah, like Vs Johnson, Abraham, Bute, Pascal? Froch nullified their biggest shots. They're ordinary fighters when they can't execute. That's what Froch has in his arsenal.
