Froch didn't take Groves seriously in their first fight.... and if I can recall, he got rid of him quicker than he did in the first fight than he did in the second.

Goes to show you that in the second fight, when both men had a chance to really get into each other's gameplan, Froch just upped more than Groves ever could at Groves's stage.

Groves was just rushed and should not have been in the ring with Froch. In fact, if it was the Froch pre-Kessler #2, then Groves would have gone in the first round.
