Froch, Groves Make Weight Ahead of Title-Fight
British boxers Carl Froch and George Groves were given a taster of the atmosphere they can expect in their super-middleweight world title rematch when an estimated 7,000 raucous fans turned out to watch their weigh-in on Friday.
Both fighters made weight, with WBA and IBF champion Froch tipping the scales just over a pound heavier than the challenger.
Groves appeared the calmer in a face-off that took place inside a circle of bodyguards from both camps, grinning and shaking his head as Froch chatted in his ear.
Groves says "he was talking, talking, talking — he is grasping for something. He needs reassurance."
The weigh-in took place at Wembley Arena, adjacent to the stadium where 80,000 spectators — a British record for a boxing fight — will watch Saturday's match. Froch won the first fight in November.
