"i can back him on that"

Agree with that totally Jim Diamond. Froch looked sloppy early on but was never in trouble, Groves however was out on his feet and lucky the ref stopped it when he did. It was early no doubt but it has actually made Groves look better than what he is as he managed to avoid a pummeling in the last 3 rounds. All credit to George though he deserves respect

froch's legs proved that when he stood up. he even afmitted he cant remember that... that is serious brain trauma lol

sorry about typos

hearn is the new sauerland
 Froch won't want any of a rematch. He was outclassed tonight and caught a break (as did I having backed froch by stoppage) |
|
By:
round 6 i want to watch again ,thought groves was close to stopping him then and im sure thats when the ref could have took a point off Froch aswell
|

By:
I think 78-73 76-75 76-75 were the cards...and you can understand them...it's the scoring of the tight rounds that does it...77-74 probably right with Froch taking the 9th...making it 86-84 or 85-84 with a knock down...
It's the early stoppage and not knowing how it pans out that is annoying and the fact a rematch is necessary...although Groves had done enough for a rematch however it turned out... |
|
By:
Froch wasnt in massive trouble. He took a massive shot that put him down and got up, took round 2 and then for me wasnt ever seriously in trouble despite getting tagged a lot.
|

By:
Folk defending that decision???
 |
|
By:
really hope Ward offers Groves a pop
|
|
By:
I had it 77-74. It's far from certain Groves was going to win though. Froch was for sure about to win the current round.

funny how every1 at sky pushing for the rematch..££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££

a brutal knockdown doesnt count as massive trouble but covering yourself up and not taking sustained damage does?
|
|
By:
ward would be a silly fight for groves to take. There's plenty of lesser fighters out there that will look good on the CV and bring him some money before even considering fighting ward.

Two winners one losser, ffs boot foster out

Credit to Groves, outstanding performance but he was on his way out, the stoppage was premature but maybe only slightly........he was on his way out from round 7.
Froch is a freak as a boxer, can take an almost unbeliavable amount of punishment, quite worrying for his health but what a spirit. |
|
By:
the only way GG could of won that fight was if he knocked him spark out,
they would of **** him on the cards anyway. |
|
By:
froch once again proved though that his chin is granite. Even the way he came back knowing he needed a KO - heart of a champion. Absolute warrior who never backs out of any fight. People booing him seem to have short memories.
|
|
By:
i guarantee there wont be a rematch
|
|
By:
has 2b ward or kessler imo...but hard to see groves v kessler being ppv.....no point going backwards...and i just tink stepping in wit this circus setup again is 2 risky for him plus he won't get the money either

Froch wasnt in massive trouble. He took a massive shot that put him down A complete contradiction in two sentences. |
|
By:
lol

Robert smith needs to get back to singing with the cure cos he knows feck all about boxing
|
|
By:
I hear Froch was delusional (as usual) in his post fight interview. Used to find it annoying but have to admit now I find it amusing.
Anywho great fight, Groves did seem to be fading but the stoppage, of course, was a joke. There will be a rematch. |
|
By:
Froch wasnt in trouble? You must have been watching a different fight to the rest of us Jimmy
 |
|
By:
Why is that a contradiction? Just because he took a massive shot (which it wasn't anyway) doesn't mean he was in massive trouble.
|
|
By:
we just have to look forward for the rematch guys
|
|
By:
Not really biscuit. It was a massive shot...........the fact that there was only 10 seconds left in the round meant for me though he wasnt massively in trouble, he was always going to see the end of Round 1.......might have been a different story with longer left in the round.

"Carl Froch was very poor, shouldn't have been stopped. I'll fight either of them tomorrow....."....degale on the coke 2nite it wud appear

Clearly if Groves took that shot in the 1st it would have been topped in the 1st. Absolute farce of a decision to stop it at that stage. Embarrassing for a world title fight.
|
|
By:
Makes me wonder how many on here have watched many Carl Froch fights before tbh. Name me another boxer in any division who could take the shots that Froch took tonight the first half of the fight and come out through rounds 7,8 and 9 and stalk Groves down like he did.
|
|
By:
watch it again ,, Froch didnt have a clue for the first 6 rounds , Groves over did it thinking he just had to connect again and it would be over , next time but there wont be one he would take him out for sure

this match was a fix..........pure and simple
|

By:
JD so you,ve seen Froch start fight like that before 5/6 rounds virtually nothing from him ,scared to throw in case he was countered
