I agree that the Groves fight was very close but I think the last Degale fight may have flattered him a little. He could give Froch problems because of his speed and awkwardness going forward but he is just too easy to hit on the back foot. At times he will literally have a nice rest on the ropes, that will be like a ready made lunch for Carl. It may throw Froch for a round or two but once he starts landing I could see him getting him out of there quicker than Groves.
