This coming thursday evening
This is gonna be very interesting and I think Groves is already winning the war of words and Froch has been biting back of recent while Groves just stays calm.
No doubt at all Groves learnt these mind games from Adam Booth and they seem to be working.
These are serious questions.Quote:

Have you ever watched a fight because the trash talking made it more interesting to you?
When you watch the fight do you look for them (your fighter) to make good on their boasts?
Do you watch all the prefight buildup you can?
Do you believe the most articulate fighter is the smarter fighter and that translates into a fighter with a higher boxing IQ?
I'm asking because I rarely watch the prefight buildup, especially when it's two fighters talking with a table between them.
I enjoy reading what other boxing fans have to say before, during and after the fight.
Just wondering why everybody seems to enjoy all the prefight BS more than I do.

Plenty of fighters have already lost before they even set foot in the ring and yeah i love boxing and watch as much as i can be it documentaries, build ups, interviews and of course the fights ;-)
If Froch ko's Groves in 3, I wouldn't be shocked , but also if Groves explodes some real bombs on Carl then it could be interesting , im liking this matchup.
Froch is in a real fight here and he knows it ;-)
This should not be PPV this is a disgrace.
The card is shocking too. Typical matchroom style. Anything they can do to get more money. It's a fucking disgrace.Quote:

Whenever they come together they just repeat the same old shit.
It will be great if one of them gives the other a smack in the mouth and it all kicks off with Johnny trying to break 'em up whilst Adam crawls around on his hands and knees screaming for security.
Froch is adamant he knocked him out cold in sparring once and just dismisses him as not worthy and just a boy.
I dont think I've ever seen Froch this vocal with anyone.
I hope Groves doesnt brush his teeth again and cranks things up a level verbally.
I still think Froch is taking him way too lightly though ;-)
Apparently every man and his dog has ironed Groves out in sparring. He doesn't even deny getting knocked down by Froch though, DeGale taunted him with it throughout the build-up to their fight.
I think there is a real good chance that this looks like a man beating up a boy. I must say though that I have seen a steady improvement with Groves and it could be that Frochs battle scares show up in this fight like an old Tom cat. This could be a Foty candidate as well.
Froch hasnt really improved. Hes learnt to start faster and thats it. He can still be confused with movement.
I dont think much of Groves but I am starting to think he could be a nightmare for Froch.
Froch relies to much on his chin, and he may just get sparked and he can be hit tough fighters
can fall to bits, when there chin say enough is a enough Froch may be at that point you never
NO .;)
