Froch v Groves II: 10 Big Things We Hope Happen

The talk of the boxing clubs and in fans' homes from now until Saturday evening will not be about the World Cup or the PGA tour, because there's only one event that matters right now; what will be on everyone's lips is the rematch between Carl Froch and George Groves. Billed as the biggest British boxing fight ever with 80,000 fans attending the contest at Wembley Stadium, the fight has captured the entire country's attention. Whether you're a hardcore fan or a casual fight fan everyone has an opinion on the clash that feels more personal than anything else in recent years, which makes the fight so special. The last time the majority of the Britain were eager for a fight on Saturday night was back in 2007 when the Brits took over Las Vegas as Ricky Hatton faced Floyd Mayweather. The rematch had to happen straight away, because, frankly, the first fight left the fans with more questions than answers. What if the referee let the fight go on for 10 more seconds? What would have happened if Carl Froch had kept his left hand up and would Groves have stuck to his game plan if he had Adam Booth in his corner? Since the first encounter we've seen six months of discussion, debates and analysis and on Saturday evening many fight fans will have goosebumps as Michael Buffer says 'let's get ready to rumble'.
