    I've got a horrible feeling Froch might lose this. Groves is a ginger cunt but he looks all wrong stylistically for Froch to me.

    Not a chance. Frock will batter him. Groves is too green and too fragile to withstand the Fury of the Fighting Farmer.

    I'd be surprised if Groves holds up to that farm boy strength, but I'm with Feebes that his style is the type you'd expect to trouble Froch

    Groves probably won't win but I at least give Froch credit for doing what CalSlappy wouldn't...Froch's facing young talent in his division. I'd like to see Froch go up and face Cleverly after this.

    You mean assuming Cleverly doesnt get dusted today? I think Kovalev is gonna fuck him up.

    Froch would beat Clevely down in the long run, but no, he wouldn't have done it as QUICKLY as Kov. Froch doesn't have anything like the power that Kov has. Froch would prob stop Clev in 8 rounds or so.

    I actually like Groves. I'll be rooting for him, and I think he CAN pull the upset. The smart money is on Froch though, and Froch will be my pick. But you have to figure that all the tough fights Frochy has been in will take their toll eventually. For that reason, and because he has power, Groves has a legit chance.

    Yes, they have to. Like most people with his sort of style, he probably trains like a fucking animal too.More wear and tear.

    If Groves wins he's got unfinished business to attend to

    When you drink 10 pints and that dog becomes a fox, you don't fuck it twice.

    I can actually see Groves-DeGale II happening next year, IF Groves beats Froch.

    Yeah, he'll be instantly bad eventually.

    Does Carl Froch have Cornish ancestry? On his wiki page it says he is a Polish Jew, but I remember reading about him being Cornish.

    The Polish Jew thing is a hook they came up with at the Guardian Newspaper, probably to soften the blow of a standard whitey being such a high profile fighter. Carl is definitely a big enough cunt to be Jewish.

    He just looks kind of Cornish, like a farmer.
