    I can't see anyone taking Froch out within 3 rounds, even after what happened in first fight

    Then again I would have never believed Hatton was a 2 round job for anyone prior to the Pac fight

    I see this going muh the same as the first fight and pick Froch in 9-10

    Froch has said today he's gonna come flying out and set a ferocious pace, bank on this being a Hagler v Hearns type fight!!

    He will get his head boxed off if he does that.

    Such a hard fight to call.
    Groves was screwed over in the first fight but clearly he was gassing badly. I don't think he can improve that stamina that much. I also don't think he will stop Froch early. Which makes it seem like a very hard fight for Groves to win. However I have hope that he can put such a beating on Froch in the first 6 rounds, a worse beating than the first fight, that when he starts to gas he has already taken enough out of Carl to largely nullify him. I can see both men hanging on for grim death at the final bell.

    In terms of who I want to win - Groves all day. I can't stand the sight/sound of Froch any longer. Or his hard-by-osmosis brothers.

    Exactly, Groves fought well but he was gassing and fading, and that's because Froch is a HUGE 168 who is very physically strong and sets a pace that really wears guys down.

    I don't reckon Froch is HUGE at 168, he says himself that he could never go to LHW because he walks the street around this weight. And he never set any sort of pace in the 1st fight , Groves controlled the pace all fight. At the end of the fight , Froch was just as knackered as Groves. My worry for Groves is I hope him and his trainer aren't looking for the early KO because of Groves' stamina problems, because that WILL backfire.
    I have to trust that Groves has been professional in his preparation and worked on his stamina and if that's the case, Groves will stop Froch in 10 after a brutal beating.

    Carl Froch is a VERY large 168lber. He's got a big frame and a solid build that most taller fighters just don't have. I think Kessler is the only guy who's comparable at that weight.

    You're wrong bro. Carl has said on a few occasions that he doesn't have to cut much weight.

    I have a bit of a silly theory but I think Carl was just very cold/ dry last time around. I'll me much happier if he comes out with a good sweat.

    I really think Groves is a difficult fight for Froch , Froch is very slow of hand and foot these days , and he always relied on his chin rather than a tight defence , I really think Groves can do it this time. He must box in and out throwing power shots but needs to make them count and not waste punches and tire.
