Carl Froch and George Groves first fought on 23 November 2013 at the Manchester Arena (then known as the Phones4u Arena). In that fight, Froch's two world titles were also at stake. Groves scored a surprise knockdown in the opening round and went on to build up a lead on all three judges' scorecards. In round nine, the fight ended in highly controversial circumstances when Froch land a series of punches to hurt Groves, which prompted referee Howard Foster to stop the fight on a technical knockout.

The rematch was officially announced on 4 March 2014 by Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, for whom Froch had fought since 2011 and Groves since 2013. It was the first boxing event to be held at the new Wembley Stadium since it opened in 2007; the last to be held at the old Wembley Stadium was Oliver McCall vs. Frank Bruno on 2 September 1995. Froch won the fight with an eighth round knockout.
