yes....from his point of view pull a lennox.....go out on a very tricky win where theres a damn good chance you wont win a rematch.
7-1. I could see 6-2 (and almost did). It was so unequivocal that Groves was winning decisively that I was naive enough not to worry about what the gentlemen at ringside were jotting down. And all the while they had their bitches brew simmering.
The bent ref was just waiting for the first time GG gets buzzed for him to jump in and stop it.... Richie woodhall has really gone down in my estimation. He's paid by sky to analyses and give a breakdown of what he thinks will happen.... He's not paid to be a biased arse licking *****. Just because he's close to mccracken he should call a spade a spade....
"Groves was leading 78-73, 76-75 and 76-75 on the judges' scorecards when the fight was stopped. " Sheer corruption
Completely agree. Woodhall's analysis has been embarrassing. How can he say a few moments before the fight Groves doesn't have a chance, the fight won't last long then never acknowledge this position afterwards.
Do the British Boxing Board of Control get paid by Matchroom or get a portion of the gate? There must be a reason these terrible decisions keep happening on British soil and Robert Smith takes no action.
One of the worst stoppages I've seen in a title fight. I thought groves was on his way to being stopped, but it's irrelevant as that wasnt the immediate situation. Feel hugely sorry for groves, if there isn't a rematch I will lose all respect for Hearn and froch.
Froch is a joke. Pascal? Weight drained, lost to OAP Taylor? 10secs away from loss. Got schooled Dirrell? Lost. Hometown robbery Kessler 1? Lost AA? Too small, never a fair fight Johnson? Got MW against an old aged pensioner Ward? Lost. Schooled for 12 rounds Kessler 2? Old and washed up now Groves? Lost. Cheating ref. Froch lacks class. He's the one who acted like a child throughout the buildup. He the one who refused to hand shake at the end. He the one who despite knowing got an early xmas present refused to give Groves any credit. Groves schooled him! He the real champion.
Awful stoppage Groves fought a great fight & his gameplan was spot on. Again if the stoppage was bad enough & at that point it was the two judges that had Froch up by a point really need to be asked how they came to score it that way.
Froch was hurt more than Groves..............there should be an investigation. I have lost my faith in Froch.....................Groves deserves a rematch ASAP!!! Golovkin would have stopped Froch and Groves almost did...........
Dreadful stoppage but can everyone stop saying froch was winning on 2 scorecards, he was losing on all 3 and rightly so.
