    Pacman v Rios or Froch v Groves

    Very close for me, but Pacman v Rios is going to a war

    Froch v Groves for me... especially since I've forked out for a ticket!

    Agreed but i've been a huge Pac fan for 10 years and i love the way Rios fights so this is a guaranteed barn-burner whether it lasts 3 rds or 12 rds as their styles will mesh to make it a FOTY candidate.

    I will still watch Froch vs Groves but i think it's gonna be a bit of a snoozer as i can see Groves employing the same tactics he did against Degale or as Dirrell did against Froch...no way will it be a Kessler-Froch type battle.

    I'm not interested in the undercard at all...infact i'm far more interested in the Germany card on Boxnation at the same time:

    Yoan Pablo Hernandez vs. Alexander Alekseev - IBF cruiserweight title.
    Eduard Gutknecht vs. Dmitry Sukhotsky - IBF light heavyweight eliminator.
    Denis Boytsov vs. Alex Leapai - Heavyweight.

    Froch/Groves, won't go out of my way to stay up until 4am for Pac Rios unless I happen to be up anyway - will just replay it.

    Either you think Pacman is chinese or your stupid...probably both.

    If Rios is a bum, what exactly does that make Groves then?

    Rios has fought at a far higher level and was a world champion. Groves has never beaten a relevant Top 10 Super Middle and his best wins have been a razor tight decision over another prospect(Degale) and one over an old faded 40 something looking for one final payday(Johnson).

    I think Pac/Rios is a complete mismatch

    Easy win for Pac, still I pick it over the Froch vs Grover fight in wich we also know who's going to win.

    Pac vs Rios but close

    The only reason we think it could be competitive is because Pac got ktfo, if hes at least 80% of before it will be one sided

    Froch vs Groves will be good think Groves will do well until getting caught
