By Iggy Chowdhury: In the build up to the Froch vs Groves rematch I followed all the pre-fight hype (TV and radio interviews, all the sky sports Ringside coverage, the numerous internet articles etc). A lot of the times there was mention of Froch “getting old overnight”. Many pundits said Groves was too quick, had a better defence and would outbox Froch but this quite simply did not happen.
During the first 6 rounds of the fight there was very little separating the two boxers, Froch was much more cautious and judged the distance between himself and Groves very well. He had more success with the jab and established the centre of the ring, something he had failed to do in the first fight.
By Iggy Chowdhury – This is simply a fight that must happen because no one else really wants to fight either of these fighters albeit for different reasons. Below I assess the two boxers and how they would fare against each other.
The question of how good is Amir Khan always leads to a “split decision,” and so I wanted to take some time to discuss the enigma that is Khan. Below is a breakdown of what I believe are his strengths and his weaknesses.
