I'm picking Froch because I think he made the big mistake of looking past Groves plus I'm hoping I stay true to form and put the evil eye on him.
I want Groves to win because I always want the younger fighter to win. Get out of the way GranPa, we have things to do.
FIGHT NITE, YEAH BABY!!
Hoping it's as good as the first one!
I want Groves to win as he won the last fight and showed he is the better boxer. I don't like injustice and therefore I have to support the person who did all the right things, but got jobbed. I've nothing against Froch who has been good for the sport, but I don't like dodgy stuff.
Picked Groves, want Groves to win.
Good morning. Its a stacked weekend.

Those are my picks. You?
You have seen my saddo predictions? Those are my predictions.
I think Groves may out point Froch but I want Carl to win.
I think GG wins.
I also want GG to win!
I like Groves to stop him
I like them both. I didn't know much about Groves previous to his fight with Degale and I liked the way he handled himself in prefight interviews and was glad he won. Froch is a warrior not seen so much these days and was surprised Groves gave him such trouble. I won't be disappointed with either outcome. I just think if Froch wins he has the potential to beat more fighters in his weight class out there than Groves can if he wins. But at the same time Groves is younger and if he keeps up his streak and proves me wrong he can be good for the sport.
Long way of saying I am on the fence regarding who I like and who I think will win and I guess I just spent the last 3 minutes typing with no real contribution to this thread. I will go back to my beer now if my teenagers didn't steal them all.
Good luck to Froch, I mean Groves, I mean crap I don't have a live feed anyway so I'll read about it tomorrow.
