    I had it about 77-74. IMO the Sky commentary was very very one-sided.

    It was a one-sided fight.

    I gave Froch one round and that was being generous

    Same here 77 74 Groves, but after 9th it would have been 1 point difference for Groves

    I gave Froch 5 and 8 but both were close. Groves looked well ahead to me and the stoppage looked premature to me

    How do you reckon Groves does against past-prime Calzaghe?

    1. Groves 10-8
    2. Groves
    3. Groves
    4. Groves
    5. Froch
    6. Groves
    7. Groves
    8. Froch

    78-73

    I believe it was either round 3 or 4 that could've gone either way.

    You'll notice that most commentary teams turn into cheer leading exercises for whoever gets the better start.

    Groves wasn't as dominant as they made out. But was more so than the scorecards.
