On the relatively smooth photo shoot that took place on the pitch, where Froch famously pushed Groves earlier in the promotional campaign, he said: "There was no aggravation and no need for it. "Did you see how much security he brought with him? They were about 20-strong. I'm not sure we'll get all of them in on fight night. "I expected George to really go for it in the press conference because he likes to feel he's got under your skin and leading the mind games but I have kept everything logical and ruined it. He looked a bit jaded today." Froch's trainer Rob McCracken was equally bullish on his charge's chances, adding: "It's going to be a great fight as you all know. Every fight Carl Froch is involved in is a great fight. He's been involved in title fights across the world. He's taken on everybody and his career has been remarkable. "After the last fight, we had a chat to see where we're at. Was Groves very good or were you very poor? He said let's find out on May 31, so we've gone into camp and worked very hard. "He looks great and he looks exactly where I hoped he'd be, which is an elite level fighter. He's motivated. His sparring and training have been great and he'll definitely deliver as he always does."
