George Groves with Swindon trainer Paddy Fitzpatrick
SWINDON trainer Paddy Fitzpatrick has promised a “better” George Groves will take on Carl Froch on May 31.
Matchroom Promotions confirmed the rematch between Froch and Groves yesterday following their controversial first contest for the IBF and WBA super middleweight titles last year. And Groves’ Swindon trainer Fitzpatrick is confident that his man is a world champion in the making.
He told the Swindon Advertiser: “I think we did pretty good with what we did last time.
“It will be done better this time.
“The things I asked of George last fight that worked means now he believes in me more.
“Those things can only make you stronger.”
