UD for George Groves

 

AGAIN. atsch

 

He should've called it quits after Bute and foregone the 2012 campaign altogether. He'd be one year up on possible HOF eligibility. Now he's gotta wait five starting now.

 

:good

Correctly ruled.

His chin and will were always iron, and he was a great one to root fot, but one Glen Johnson truism is that he was always a bit of a whiny crybaby when it came to (sometimes justifiably, sometimes not) perceived wrongs done against him:

Groves is happy with his performance, says he learned a lot. He says he thought many times Johnson was out on his feet, and now understands why he's only been stopped once after more than 70 times out.

He can't believe none of his punches had more effect.

He admits he used too much energy.

He says once he stopped trying to bomb Johnson out and began to box with his feet and wheels spinning in his brain moving it became easier.

Dark Lord Adam Booth begins his interview with "There isn't much to say about this." He says Groves is moving on to a higher standard of boxing in his career.
