Read what I said!

It's not just about turning up, it's about being in the right mind frame and you could imagine he might not be as it's a fight that doesn't excite or interest him. Seen it happen over the years.

Calm down.

I see what you are saying, but I think he is that far ahead of Groves that even if he turns up switched off he will win.

I am calm!

I agree he is but these things happen in sports especially boxing or MMA, don't fully commit to the training camp or your head is thinking past him to the next big fight and suddenly you've thrown in a lacklustre performance and no longer champ.

Yep, these freak results do happen and that is the beauty of the sport, but Froch has a granite chin and can punch so I just cannot see anything other than a painful night for Groves. We will see.

Anderson Silva was guilty of that in a huge way the other week. I'm surprised Froch is going for it. Expected Kessler again if Im honest. They are both getting on. It'd be another great fight.

Slightly odd fight for Froch to take?

[RichC]

Very strange

It's on PPV.

This is Froch cashing out.

IF Groves were to get on his bike and keep out of Froch's way i could see him nicking it. Fighters who box and move give Froch absolute fits (Taylor, Dirrell and obviously Ward)
The only issue is that i don't think Groves could keep that up for a full 12 rounds.

Interesting fight. Possibly a little early for Groves. Would like to have seen him test himself against someone just under the level of Froch. Bute would have been a good shout?

Dear lord on PPV

[RichC]

It could be interesting, as I said earlier it will depend on how up for it Froch is and how hungry Groves is to get to the top.

Shocking, isn't it.

No doubt a piss poor undercard as well. I've heard Burns vs Carolla mentioned

That'll be 3 PPV fights in less than 6 months on Sky.

Bad form.

Great fight for Groves. He wins and he's on the world stage. Defeat costs him nothing as Froch is bona fide. Win win, unless he takes a Jeff Lacey style schooling.
