    Watched it on delay the following day, on my own at home so no atmosphere outside of what the fight gave me, the only time I have cried at a boxing match while watching it on my own. Favourite fight I have watched without knowing the result in advance, magic. And as others have said, fantastic patience from Froch, picking his shots and no panic. Fantastic.

    there was no sudden change in the tide it was incredible you could feel froch taking control even though the fight wasnt going that way. A fight to show what boxing is all about and why its the best sport

    Watched in on some shitty stream. Great seeing it again though, what a dramatic round.

    The way he keeps a clear head and picks his shots is very impressive, so is the way he's able to go for the kill so late in the fight... he must've been ****in knackered.

    Used to think Froch was a bit of a knob but how can you not like the guy these days? He's great for British boxing and it's criminal that he's not a mainstream star when you consider his recent achievements.

    That was amazing just watching that. Absolutely beautiful and will live with me forever.

    Froch should bring out a compilation dvd of most of his fights when he has done because it would be a huge seller.

    I was in the front room with the wife going nuts and cheering Froch on every second.

    Amazing awesome nerve tingling performance from Froch, an absolute travesty that we fans were robbed of watching this live on proper telly.
    Imagine the hype Froch would have got if this had been shown live on ITV or Sky!!

    Maybe my favourite ever night of boxing with regards to being huddled over my laptop (maybe Vazquez-Marquez III actually :yep). Those last 2 rounds when Froch turned the tide will be a memory I will take to the grave.

    Brilliant to watch again.
