    No. Pabon made the call and for better or worse it’s not changing. So outside of that controversy he’d have to justify a rematch based on his own merit. All he did was get his ass beat and quit.

    NO.

    Not in the least.

    He lost every round and got KTFO'd.

    No way.

    Got knocked down by a Jab. Quit in the ring. Cried like a baby. Lost every round. Got smashed up and beat at his own game.

    Displayed zero hunger, zero urgency, little desire to win. Was beat spiritually, mentally and physically.

    He was a deer in the headlights.

    A rematch is out of the question, the fight was not competitive, usyk outboxed him without any difficulties.

    I think they should oblige Dubois & give him another beat down

    Yes he did because he was winning the first fight hands down and it was BS stoppage.

    So... had the first been allowed to continue, do you really think the outcome would've been anything other than a KO victory for Froch?

    Of course not, he didn't deserve the shot in the first place, what's his best win? Trevor Bryan? Kevin Lerena? Who he was lucky not to be stopped in the first.

    I partially agree with the sentiment here, but rightly or wrongly the only fight Froch could take was the rematch with Groves. The public demand was insane.

    Take the low uppercut out the equation.................how did he look in every round? Does anyone really believe his performance warrants a rematch? I sure don't.
