    Stoppage was bs but don't agree with your aftermath prediction.

    As for the froch is chin is questionable, you really didn't mean that, and am giving you the benefit of the doubt. Because if you did I'd really question your boxing knowledge

    Froch is on the slide you could tell that from the Kessler fight

    I'd say most of us have three or four scenarios we think are likely in this fight. As it's such a massive night for boxing it'll probably be a complete damp squib of a fight. Groves moving and jabbing Froch's head off for twelve rounds.

    Yeah there is a danger it could be a massive anti-climax.....

    But there is definately some needle in this fight so I don't believe it will be a dull affair

    Ha ha yeh it could end up with little real engagement but i doubt it..in saying that though if Groves did manage to do that it would still be quite impressive considering not many people have

    Yeh sorry I phrased that badly. Froch has shown one of the best chins in world boxing over the last few years, that's not up for debate. My point was the guy has been in so many wars, taken so many punches and then nearly knocked out in his last fight, how long can his chin hold up?

    Please explain how you come to that conclusion ?

    Froch was dropped heavily, he didn't struggle to beat the count, didn't struggle to get up, in fact he got straight up, and was ad******g his shorts and wiping his gloves. If we want to bring another argument into this, the video evidence would suggest he tried to break his fall. All the sort of things somebody that was " nearly knocked out would do " :patsch

    Please deal in FACTS, do not confuse your one sided biased opinion with FACT, and don't exaggerate to try and justify your **** poor argument.

    I have no idea why you're getting so butthurt. I think most people agree it was a very heavy knockdown, and the lights were close to being out. Chill Winston.

    His legs were wobbly as **** after he got up. Your such a little tit it's unreal mate, biggest die hard froch fan I've ever come across. In actually worried for your health when froch gets knocked out on the 31st you might self harm ?

    Froch was probably the closest to being knocked out in the first round vs. Groves than he has been in his whole career, Froch was in serious trouble and had the round been 30 seconds longer... would of been likely knocked out completely imo.

    It was certainly the most hurt froch has ever been.

    But the punch was actually near perfect -

    1) Froch's hands were down by his side
    2) Froch was walking forward on to it
    3) Groves was walking forward on to it
    4) Nailed it right on the chin
