With the court case going on between Groves and Booth I only see it happening if there is something in their contract that stipulates Booth must be at all Groves fight.
If Booth and Groves planned all this and went to court as part of their wicked web of deceit then Booth has gone down even lower in my estimation.

If you had some guy harassing you to to join him and his toe-nacious mate in sexual exploits then would you really want him in your corner?
Id be suprised if Booth has the guts to show his face after all he put Groves through...well knowing how arrogant Booth is I wouldnt actually

Well Andy Lee was added as a late replacement for Martin Murray this afternoon so Booth will be in the building....
When Groves was interviewed by Kugan Cassius yesterday he was asked directly if Booth would be in the corner, Groves would only say it was 'unlikely'. Kugan pushed and Groves again refused to give a straight no and said 'unlikely'.
Personally I don't think he will be.
Their split seems genuine and not too friendly.

Saying that...
I'd love it if Booth walked to the ring with him and gave Froch a wink... Wonder what Froch's reaction would be... He has said he thinks Groves is weaker without Booth.

Froch won't give a crap If he is........
Let's be honest Froch doesn't rate georgey boy does he......Groves best win was a fight that could have gone either way..........He's never fought at Froch's level..

I'd be surprised if Froch doesn't take Groves seriously. Too experienced.

Froch will take him serious and wont be foolish enough to just rush in thinking he can crush him.
He will box smart like he did against Bute, feint the Poopie, work the body......intelligent pressure.
Groves will pot shot like he did de gale for the first 4 rounds but those body shots will weigh him down.
Eventually gets caught on the ropes and stopped.
I think.
My brother has a sneaky suspicion that Groves power is under rated and that he catches froch on the way in unaware and stops him.
After all, when did froch last meet a guy with speed AND power?

It would be amusing if Booth appears from beneath the Gingerbread man costume

Groves may as well get Booth to carry the spit bucket seeing as he already owes him 25% or whatever it is.

Imagine Froch has trained hard for all this time..Got a gameplan and is expecting to knock Groves out and rightfully so......
Seeing Booth in the corner winking at him just might be the kryptonite.......He may forget everything and fight like a complete novice......
Maybe Groves is the Moriarty of Boxing...and Booth the head henchman..
Elementary my Dear Watson......

Knowing Booth it wouldn't surprise me to see him show up in Froch's entourage on Saturday night. Split with Groves seems fairly legit and Booth would probably like nothing better than to get one over on a fella who left him.
Won't mean a thing to Froch either way probably but would take an opportunity to get under George's skin.

Interestingly on the Behind The Ropes special, Groves said it's nice to have someone who doesn't have a huge ego and is purely money motivated training him for this fight. Can't see Booth turning up personally.

Re: Will Adam Booth be in Groves corner Saturday night ?
Its extortionate charging a boxer 25% as a trainer and manager and then letting another promoter set up a fight where Groves would be expected to fork out another 10-15%. Apparently if Groves loses his case against Booth he will be forced to pay over 25% of all his fight earnings over to Booth until 2015. Thats on top of paying his new trainer, cornermen, Hearn, taxes etc. It sounds like Booth is charging extra for services he doesnt provide. He hasnt promoted Groves in years but is still collecting a fee for it.

He'll be in Froch's corner. Therefor Froch's tactics will be circle around and launch raids from the outside, barely throwing anything. The whole fight will be he and G circling about feinting. There will be even less violence than Degale's last fight.

Haye could come into the ring with a ginger wig on and KO froch.

Haye isn't able to exist in the trenches. After one round he would go to his corner and slice his own face off to get a NC.
