Carl Froch says that he is getting "wound up" by the "arrogance" of George Groves's camp ahead of their fight later this year.

IBF and WBA champion Carl Froch has admitted that he is getting "wound up" by the "arrogance and disrespect" coming from George Groves's camp ahead of the all-British bout.

Froch believes that while Groves has a strong future ahead of him, the Nottingham-born fighter is adamant that his 25-year-old opponent is not ready for a bout of this calibre.

"Let me tell you, I'm firing on all cylinders and I'm getting a little bit wound up by all the arrogance and disrespect they are showing a true champion," Froch told talkSPORT. "He wants to be very careful what he wishes for.

"This is his big chance to catapult himself to superstardom but, unfortunately for him, boxing doesn't work like that. It works like that in Hollywood, but in real life you can't put somebody of George's level in with somebody of my level."

The pair will go toe-to-toe in the ring later this year.
