    Was lucky enough to be at the fight. Groves was world class shocking stoppage yes he was hurt but we will never know if he could have turned things around. As for Froch he is just a animal the punishment he took. Groves handled himself so well after the fight. If u think everything Groves has been through in the build up yet put on a performance like that.

    Bang on caught up on a lot of the post fight interviews. I have followed Froch fights for years and is one of the bravest fighters I have ever seen. Yet u put a camera or microphone in front of him and he lets himself down badly. His trainer Rob also made himself look foolish as well. Usually think he is a sound guy

    He proved he's at that level. I've never had him down as having a weak chin. But I still think it's a bit suspect when he decides to trade.

    He's a class act and was robbed badly.

    Proved so many people wrong. The next superstar of British boxing.

    Groves forgot what was setting everything up, His jab. Trying to hard to Knock Froch out, His feet were getting wider, disaster waiting to happen. Shame He was pissing it.

    Gutted for him, the refereee took it away from him on Saturday night.

    Hopefully he can line up a fight with Stieglitz, get a strap and go from there. I don't think Froch will give him a rematch.

    The fight were singed and sealed till injury reared its head then they had some back and forth, Froch didnt even entertain the idea.

    :lol::lol::lol:

    Fights were signed and sealed.

    And then an injury. And on to a much bigger fight.

    Whilst managed by Adam Booth.

    Who knew? :lol:
