    I am going with my heart over my head and say Groves by a late stoppage.

    Over to you....

    I concur.

    Groves late TKO. To big to fast and far better technically.

    Might even make it look easy.

    I think he may get Murray out of there before the seventh. Groves hits hard and Martin is hardly elusive.

    I think Murray showed his level in his lost to Abraham, who was arguably beaten by Paul Smith a year before and lost every round and hardly landed a clean shot against Gilberto Ramirez.

    I have it from a good source Abraham was decked by Luke Blackledge, which shows how much he has declined.

    Not when you consider he nearly blew a beast like Froch away in R1.

    Murray doesnt trip over his own feet, nor will he go for broke like Froch did in that first round.

    Groves early, TKO, maybe a bit of a "British stoppage" because I can see Murray going in to his shell.

    Murray will tuck up, tight defence and try and get past 4-5 rounds and take it late but I think he will be too negative, not open up and Groves will be able to unload without the fear of punches coming back at him and might force the referee to intervene.
