    I felt Badou Jack was a clear winner and I really felt Groves would win. I dunno it is the weight, the trainer or if Froch really ruined his confidence but Groves just doesn't seem like the same fighter he was when he first boxed Froch.

    Fight wasn't even as close as a split decision. How it was scored for Groves is confusing to say the least. Jack won, there was no shenigans, I thought Groves was gonna unload and smash him and all praise to Jack he wasn't having it.

    No, Groves didn't win.

    His stamina failed him once again.

    Groves put up a real good fight but he came up short. Too many clear head and body shots by Jack. Plus Jack dropped his ass. Close but no cigar for the Brit. Long flight home.

    I had it 114-113 Jack. 6-6 even in rounds but the knock down decided the winner. Without that Groves could edge this the same way Jack did. This is my RBR:

    Round 1: Jack 10-8
    Round 2: Groves
    Round 3: Jack
    Round 4: Groves
    Round 5: Groves
    Round 6: Groves
    Round 7: Groves
    Round 8: Jack
    Round 9: Jack
    Round 10: Jack
    Round 11: Groves
    Round 12: Jack
