    Please show 1 time in the whole fight apart from the stoppage where Groves "ate Froch best shots"? never happened. Real 50/50 fight but i'd have thought given the circumstances surrounding the ending of the 1st one it would be Froch fans re-writing history lol. I don't know what GG ate all night but it defo wasn't Froch's best shots as he landed **** all worth mentioning before the exchange in the 6th & even though Froch seemed to lose that exchange he was the one who pushed on.

    Froch ate everything groves had in the 6th and then came on strong. I mean everything groves had and froch kept coming.

    The man gets zero respect for that, if that had of been a Mexican people would be salivating how he came back after than 6th

    Some of the comments on here are the worst I've seen, it's like some folks have never watched boxing before! In particular Froch or Groves. Lol

    They are all wrong I think Froch is going to tko Groves early.

    He's going to come out like he did against Bute and blast him out of there.

    Wont be the first or last time Froch has made everyone eat crow either.

    Seen a few of your comments Antonio, have to say you're on the money, I favour Froch massively here.
    GG couldn't finish off a groggy and sub-par Froch 1st time round, won't get a better chance imo.
    I'll happily eat my words if groves puts awy Froch or batters him to a wide UD or similar but just........no...........CHINS EXIST!

    I don't know who will win, but I will not be surprised if Groves were to win, should be a good fight...............

    imo Groves stamina or chin is not in question. In the last fight Groves became tired by throwing hundreds of full power shots. I believe that once he knocked Carl down he believed he could take Froch out and continued to throw hard shots and punched himself out. Groves would have learned his lesson and adjusted for the 2nd fight accordingly.

    Groves took plenty of shots from Carl and didn't go down, and despite what Carl's fanboys might claim, wasn't ready to go when Howard Fixer stepped in and ruined everything. The flip flopping was down to tiredness combined with the fact that this is how Groves in fact moves... exagerated by the tiredness from teeing off on Carl's chin for 9 rounds.

    I'll be honest I could count on one hand how many times Carl landed really cleanly in the whole fight. This to me does put's question marks over GG's chin. As he was wobblying with half connecting shots. Secondly I noticed when Carl got over the whole 1st round KO he started to target the body. That wasn't luck but a direct strategy to slow down GG. Expect more of the same this time round

    if your tired and being hit your ready to go! - it was a poor stoppage he was never in position but Groves was feeling the attack and was ragged

    But Carl wobbled groves had him on the ropes and landed two decent shots in a cluster the rest hit gloves but at that point Groves guard had dropped and he stumbles as the ref jumps in from behind. The best a left hook I think it was.

    It was too early but in that situation I couldn't see Froch not landing more punches.
