Frock will be too good for groves this time and won't make the same mistake of underestimating him , groves had his chance and couldn't finish him . Froch to win in the 4th round .

least there is a bit of justice there then, froch wanted Chavez jr first so unless he gives groves team some side money and sign to fight him after Chavez then froch got nowhere to go

Re: Froch ordered to fight groves!!!

he'll vacate!

Laugh as much as you want its true .

Groves had him a few times early on and didn't have either the power or skill to finish him , as soon as frock got himself together he punished groves when it mattered and won the fight . It will be the same outcome this time aswell !
Groves isn't in frochs league he had his shot with the suprise tactics and blew it , fact !

Hopefully groves knocks him down a peg . Hate Froch

I think Froch might first agree a deal with Chavez Jr and then vacate. I cant see Groves winning a rematch however. Froch gets stronger as the fight goes on and Groves slows at a time when a clean hit will take more out of you due to work done earlier in the fight. If the fight does go ahead I'm going with Froch to win sometime between rounds 8-12.

Bullshit! groves exposed froch big time! the only reason froch got in to the fight was because groves gassed, lets be honest here froch got hammered for 8 rounds and they wernt surprise tactics because groves told froch exactly what he was going to do before the fight! He'll vacate and fight an overrated chavez jr in vegas

froch has to fight groves next or vacate.
froch said today groves refused an offer,i think the bitching and banter has started and they'll fight each other next.Froch won't duck him.

Please alert me to where I have said any differently? Agreeing a deal does not mean fight. Froch will agree a deal with Chavez Jr before vacating his belts to give himself some insurance. If he vacates and then the Chavez Jr deal falls through then he will not have the IBF belt. He'd be in a worse off position. If the Chavez Jr deal is a success he'll vacate the belt and proceed to fight Chavez Jr. If the deal falls through he'll take the Groves fight after exploring all other options.

The Fact that the IBF has ordered the fight means nothing.
He can pay Groves to step aside and take a fine by the IBF or be stripped.
Gone are the days wher the like of the IBF WBO and WBC hold the cards.
These alphabet belts don't hold the power that they used to.

Agreed. He's going to vacate and take the Chavez Jr fight I reckon.

Chavez won't fight froch without the belt.The only fight for froch is groves,no way will he vacate and hide from groves.

Should Groves accept pay off on deal to fight winner of Chav and Frock, then the IBF will probably just hand down a petty fine...

Been done loads of times.

no way will groves step aside especially after what he's been saying and the length's he's gone to to try and get the rematch

Re: Froch ordered to fight groves!!!

Sat Jan 25, 2014 1:34 am

Froch won't rematch him if he doesn't want to do so. Its easy for Froch to come up with an excuse and say he's going to fight Ward or someone again as its an international fight rather than a domestic fight. He'll use the argument 'I've already beat him once so I don't know why I should do it again'. We know how the game works now. Lets not fool ourselves. Theres a chance the fight will happen but ill be surprised if Froch takes it especially when Andre Ward has offered him another fight.

Re: Froch ordered to fight groves!!!

The groves fight was stoped prematurely,froch's pride will make him fight groves i guarantee it.

Yeah if he is offered a pretty little penny with a signed contract from both fighters promoters that he will face the winner you can bet your f*cking foreskin he will step aside. :thumbup:

As I said,been done loads of times...


If the Alphabet orgs held any power the Klit Bros would've faced each other.
Mandatory opponents are worthless accolades these days.

Froch survived because the 1st round knockdown happened with about 20 seconds of the round to go. If it had happened earlier in the round he would have been knocked out or fight stopped. His legs were gone and he didnt know where he was.

Froch and groves will fight each other next that's a certainty,there won't be any step aside deals done,groves could never look himself in the mirror again neither could froch.
:malky:

Re: Froch ordered to fight groves!!!

Sat Jan 25, 2014 11:40 am

It doesn't matter what happened in rounds one to seven, the fact is Froch had him hurt in the eighth and had him beat, I think the ref saved Groves a beating. Froch to win again

Groves only had a 3 fight deal with hearn. That ran out prior to the froch fight, the froch fight was done by hearn for both sides, but it was out of contract when it was done. Groves has had offers from near enough every big promoter out there UK and US.
