I hope people dont start jumping to conclusions with Groves based on last Saturday. Groves entire camp was probably based around getting the right hand over Carls lazy left and it worked. It was only a matter of time before somebody took advantage of that practice. Carl probably under prepared believing in all the hype that he would cave the kid in early. That kd in the first took it all out of Froch upstairs. Had he prepared properly it would not have.
I'm skeptical about Groves. He still seems pretty easy to hit even with Carls low and degraded early output. The Chavez fight would be a good one. From what I've seen of both men and putting aside my dislike for Chavez I'd probably take him to beat Groves. I think Chavez has been positioned to take on the winner of Bika/Dirrell by magically appearing at #2 having never fought at that weight. Groves probably cant get the fight and I dont think Froch will either. In the mean time Groves needs to move along and get another fight in the next 4 to 6 months. Call out Kessler if need be or maybe throttle Abraham if he gets past Steiglitz.
