    The abuse stems from the threats against Groves family,am the abuse They received all instigated from the Froch clan

    I'm torn on the fight personally,Groves is playing the wind up game but getting on my nerves a bit. Man v man I'd like to see Groves win but a Froch victory wouldn't shock me,certainly won't be a 4 rpund job either way!

    I've lost ALL respect for him and I was a huge supporter...

    the showing of him, his brother and their company plainly showed both what they think of people and that the way they treat people is nothing short of complete disregard.

    well, above ALL other ill's in life, personally that sums it up...

    you have No Regard for people, you are plainly wicked & evil scum!!!

    Even if Froch is getting £13M it will hardly do him much good when he is severely injured,i think Groves is going to do a career ending finish on Froch inside 3 rounds,then i fully expect Rachael to bag herself another boxer or footballer within weeks.

    He only has himself to blame.... He is a legend in the ring and had many exciting fights, but as soon as he opens his mouth it goes all wrong.

    Where in the first fight he should have been getting praised because of the great comeback, he was getting slated because of his interview after the fight. Shame

    I don't agree with the comment that he doesn't care what people think, he clearly does.

    there is no real reason to feel bad for him at this point though. He is really the one on top, he won the last fight and many think he will win this one. He is in a harsh situation though, having such a tough challenge at the end of his career but that's boxing. Its a cruel sport, I feel more sorry for the fighters that really get screwed and end up with mental health issues.

    Froch hasn't looked too bad in the build up really. I was a bit harsh on him about the push but its just hype at the end of the day, if he does a similar thing again that's a different matter. when you listen to him he sounds pretty composed and confident about winning. the guy isn't stupid, if he thought there was nothing left he wouldn't have taken this fight. whether we will find this out on the night I don't know but the point is he clearly thinks he is going to win.

    i don't buy the rattled thing with Froch, he just seems more frustrated at dealing with Groves and the fact he is sometimes outsmarted verbally but what's that going to mean fight night. It didn't help Rachman when he outwitted Lewis, it worked against him in the worst way. I like what Groves is doing though, if not taken too serious its good to have a bit of fun during the hype.

    with regards to his family its his own fault for letting his brother get involved so I find it hard feeling sorry for him re the family slagging. he should get them in check really :patsch

    Ha ha feel sorry for him people are talking like he got bat in the last fight.. I think its all a load of bollocks howard foster stopped Froch from stopping groves, Groves was ****ed and was gassed he was getting stopped, george put everything into them early rounds and will need to do the same again but maintain it till the end, I think Froch wins the rematch this time i think he stops him mid rounds!

    Feel sorry for him having such a dick head of a brother who is generating even more negativity for him... Without him even realising.

    Assuming Froch has not declined as a fighter since the first contest, I'm going for another stoppage for Carl. Still I have been more confident with other predictions, that's what makes this such a good fight. If Groves pulls out the win then good on him, I'm going with Froch though.

    i think youre all being way to previous with the end of Carl Froch..

    groves is a good fighter and will have his day, but froch hasnt gotten to where he is by being weak willed or a walk over.
    i think froch win, but eitherway a great fight :)

    if he does lose it`ll be close and set up a trilogy.

    In the ring I 100% respect him, as a British fighter we should be proud of him. Out of the ring, he's an arrogant bellend and I hope Groves batters him.

    No need to feel sorry for him.

    You can't not respect Froch as a fighter, to his credit he's took on the biggest challenges that were put in front of him at the time and has come out on top far more often than not. He's a hard man no two ways about it.

    That said, as a person every time he opens his mouth he just comes across as a total prat. Fair enough he's achieved big things as a boxer, but he's so highly strung it's unreal if he gets the slightest criticism it's almost like he goes into melt down - how dare anyone say a bad word about the great Carl Froch.

    Constantly contradicts himself, talked a load of bollocks in the after fight Groves interview, his brother does him no favours what so ever and I hope May 31st Groves is the one with his hand raised.

    Nothing dramatic about it.

    IF you have total disregard for others, you reveal your True Nature, which is evil _unt!!!

    Froch is a total bell end, he's made so many comments about how childish Groves...then continues to make his bad breath actions at him. 100% legend in the ring and a British great, just a shame the way he gets on outside it. Love him as a fighter though .
