For those who think Froch will win...

It will be exactly the same next time. Groves will win plenty of early rounds , start to Gas and Froch will come into it in the mid to late rounds

 

so, exactly how much are you betting on Groves?

 

Froch can definitely win, Groves was fatigued and traded and got caught, in a rematch imagine the 10th, 11th and 12th rounds he could catch Groves and finish him

Its not always about whos better its about stamina etc and who can pace themselves

 

The answer is plainly obvious; all you have to do is look at the first fight.

I don't necessarily think Froch wins the rematch, but if he does, it'll be because Groves hasn't been smart enough to pace himself and gets TKO'd (again)

I personally think Groves will box his way to a decision this time around, conscious of the previous outcome.

 

i agree

i just dont know why Groves didnt just jab and move after round 7 ,he was well ahead and starting to get tagged. Frochs legs were shot he could not have kept up with him!

 

If Froch was so slow why didn't George win? Froch won't be out down early this time and take time to recover. Groves will still gas out. He had a golden chance and he couldn't beat a slow aged Froch last time out so why would that change this time?

 

Agreed. Just don't get hot headed and get into a slugging match. Keep moving. Throw ones and two's, hold a bit if necessary.

 

Without any doubt froch prepared for the last fight physically like he always does, he is super fit otherwise he never would of got of the floor, however I think mentally he and everyone around him thought this was such a mismatch and he didn't have the same focus as he did in his previous two fights ie Kessler and bute. Groves fought at his very best I don't think he could of possibly done anymore, I totally agree with everyone who says froch got lucky for the fight to be stopped but i truly believe this time he will come into the fight with a totally different mind set, this wont help him fight any better because in terms of skill and power groves wins hands down but froch will come forward much more and be wiser to groves weapon ie the right straight. I admire froch for taking the rematch because he is going take some serious punishment but i think he will prevail and produce a much better performance and lets be honest he cant fight any worse than last time and that's why he is the bookies favourite because there is likely to be a better performance from froch than groves, i predict this fight wont go past 3 rounds either a froch or groves ko in a truly brutal encounter

 

Froch coming forward much more is perfect for gg. Gg will beat froch to the punch alln day every day. Froch will walk on to huge shots all night.


Froch knows how good gg is I think froch trys to stop him ASAP this time a bit like the Lucian bute fight and groves uses movement to evade froch (unlike bute) and drops him multiple times with huge shots. Froch has the chin to beat the count but eventually the towel gets thrown in by McCracken and Carl looks a mess

 

No back injury, no 'dancing show' as distraction and no element of surprise for George.

 

Only his crazy toughness gives him a chance. He's outgunned in every single other department. A fascinating fight.

 

if froch runs at groves like he did with bute then hes only walkin on to a huge right hand again, groves is not scared to let his hands go.

 

Groves has the advantage in most all departments, including the capacity to learn and adjust. There is nothing now that Froch can do to adjust his style that will see dramatic turn around in how the fight will pan out. George will be more aware of the fact that he can't get into any reckless slugging matches and imo will box clever and potshot Froch with hard accurate shots. How Froch reacts to this will be the key to the fight... If Froch throws caution to the wind I can see him getting caught and dropped by hard shots and possibly even stopped, If he decides to box on the backfoot and avoid the slugging he will again get caught by hard shots and drop a wide decision. The only way Froch can win this is if we see a repeat of the last fight and Groves blows his load intrying to take Froch out which imo is a very unlikely occurance as Groves will have no doubt learnt a lot from the first fight.

Froch is in a very difficult situation imo and is why he wanted out of the rematch and Mckracken didnt even want Froch to fight GG to begin with. GG has Frochs number and will win the rematch imo, just how GG wins is all down to how Froch reacts in the rematch. IMO I have an inkling GG drops Froch multiple times as Carl tries putting the pressure on a lot earlier in the fight and the towel comes in from the corner rounds 5/6.

 

Don't forget that the fact that Groves hit Froch with his best shots and still didn't stop him will effect him mentally.
Froch jab was countered far to easily in the first fight so he needs to draw the lead from Groves then step straight in with his flurries which were the only success he was having in the first fight.
If he does this then he will stop Groves again, the way Groves loads up with that right hand is very energy draining for him.
