Froch/Groves II

[Indeep]

What's the consensus on the rematch? I just re-watched the first fight again yesterday, and Groves did pretty well for about 3 rounds, and then Froch started to turn it around. The announcers were big time pro Groves, but if you ignored the commentary and watched the fight it was fairly event before the quick stoppage, but Froch would have won anyway as Groves was fading fast.

Tough call, but I'm going with Froch with a mid to late round stoppage.

I think Froch will win a controversial decision

Going to watch the first fight again today along with a few others but, I like Froch to win and maybe add a Froch in rounds 7-12.

Anyone have thoughts on Donaire vs Vetyeka.

[The HOFF]

Anyone like Maduma to upset Mitchell? Not sure I can bet it knowing Mitchell will get the benefit of home town judging.

Just finished watching the first fight again. I had it 77-74 Groves after 8 rounds. I keep flip flopping on this one. This fight is so tough to call.

Fun fact of the day.... George Groves was a Junior Kickboxing Champ as a teenager!

Tough one to score for sure, but that sounds about right because of the knockdown

Groves is winning this one which will set up a HUGE mega 3rd fight.

Groves has come in really light like he did against Degale,I bet he takes the same reserved approach and looks for the counter punch.

Yeah. It's a fine line to walk. Groves rubs people the wrong way but a guy like Connor McGregor is loved by everyone.

It's only recently that Groves rubbed people the wrong way though and that was only because he was fighting fellow Brit who has a big fan-base. Before that fight Groves was always the quiet one who just went about his business...it was complete role reversal to when he fought James DeGale and everybody hated DeGale. I guess he thought he had to do it to ensure he got the re-match and big payday tho

That's the Floyd "Money Mayweather" blueprint to success. How else do you explain such a boring fighter such as Floyd getting the PPV buys he does. He's so hated that people buy it hoping he will finally lose.

Indeed. Depends on how obsessed you are with making that "ca$h money" and being a celebrity. Somebody like Andre Ward is the opposite and is not interested in acting a fool, talking smack, etc... to make more money
