rob284 1,682 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 groves needs to pressure him early. if he doesnt froch will jab his way to round 9 and turn it on after that. if groves is super fit he can do it. but I think froch round 11 stoppage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bird 9,935 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 groves needs to pressure him early. if he doesnt froch will jab his way to round 9 and turn it on after that. if groves is super fit he can do it. but I think froch round 11 stoppage. yep I watched it again to night on sky, and groves deff had the 7 rounds his way, but in the 8th after min in to that round froch had him going I reckon if the ref hadn't stopped froch would he have ko him in that round . .But if froch don't fight different this sat to last fight he could loose early on in the fight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bryson 562 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 i think Groves will do the job this time around hes got Froch worked out Groves has openly said he has studied the last fight in great detail he will know he put to much in to quick i think he will come out and box froches head off to be fair froch is at the end of his career and hes had a good one but i just cant imagine he could of improved a great deal from the last fight where as Groves is young and hungry and also knows what Froch is all about 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

keepdiggin 9,561 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 anyone who thinks groves will beat frotch lives in a dream world. I would love groves to win but frotch will destroy this time. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
delswal 3,819 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I think the only way groves can beat froch is to out box him keep on his toes and keep out of a toe to toe brawl, groves had more than a good chance to finish froch last fight , he hit froch with everything he had , and yet froch kept coming forward. If groves boxes clever he can and will win , if froch catches groves clean its over, first sign of groves being hurt froch will be relentless and be all over him and get the stoppage. either way after all the hype i hope the fight lives up to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bryson 562 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 anyone who thinks groves will beat frotch lives in a dream world. I would love groves to win but frotch will destroy this time are you serious you really dont think Groves has achance even though he made a mug of Froch on the last fight Froch came out with all the excuses under the sun saying he didnt take Groves serious enough and he never trained properly what a load of pish someone at his level would never under estimate an oppenent especially with what he had to loose the fact is hes no where near as good as he used to be he is slowing down and the power doesnt seem to be there on the other hand Groves is young and his power is still developing he is gutted with the last fight and he will have improved in the gym alot more that froch could imagine i just hope he doesnt go in head first and try and knock him out cause the emotions are his but i really cant see him gassing this time the fight means more to him now than it does for froch 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

*The*Field*Marshall* 674 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Still got mixed feelings on this fight! I do think Groves has got more going for him, younger, fresher, faster, probably even the more conclusive puncher and I believe the fight is his to lose. . . And unfortunately I think he will, after out boxing Froch early to mid, I see him unable to maintain the focus, discipline and composure needed to finish the job, getting tagged, mid to late and fight will soon be over. . I think Froch will apply himself with more composed and controlled manner. I prefer Froch as a man, not that either of them are particularly likeable individuals! The only part of me that would like to see Groves victorious is aspect of new face for Britain in the international stakes, but even if he's beaten he can come again. Should Froch win and I would like to see him bring the curtain down on a truly stellar career. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pip1968 2,490 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 groves is getting right under frochs skin again he certainly knows how to wind him up,,,,pure class 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pesky1972 5,307 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Cannot wait for this one! Majority of posts so far have gone with Froch. The bookies still have Froch the favourite. Thankfully I bet Froch last time..., but this time I'm going to go with Groves. Groves is talking about stopping Froch in 3..., I don't think he's any intention of trying to stop him in three. Groves has the style, speed & power to dominate Froch and keep him at a distance that'll suit him.., and see him win rounds. Can't see what Froch can bring that'll negate this, so I expect Groves to outbox Froch all night and win on points. Groves downfall last time was he got a bit carried away because he was catching & hurting Froch with ease in the early rounds, went for the stoppage, and blew up in the later rounds. He underestimated Froch's toughness..., he won't (and nor will Paddy Fitzpatrick) this time around. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
