★★★ Carl Froch v George Groves II - 31st May 2014 ★★★

[darkman]

Say Groves drops there. Gets up finishes the round strongly and Froch wins the last few rounds closely. Who do u have as winning Dav?

 

If it goes to the score card then Groves wins clearly, but my angle is that Groves had clearly slowed down. Once that happened Froch was able to catch him. Once Froch could catch Groves you saw the proof that Groves couldnt take the power.

 

For me, if the ref doesnt stop the fight, its wasnt going to the judges.

 

Just watched the repeat. Groves was hurting Froch even in the 8th

 

How many times did Froch hit when told to break? Not to mention the blatent elbow. Should have had at least one point taken off. The ref clearly favoured him

You cant take "Punches not hurting" as a literal thing man, but be realistic, come the 8th round who's punches were hurting more?

 

Froch wsant to know that Groves drop off would be so immediate and as such he was baffled with what to do with the rest of the fight.

[darkman]

Punches looked to be hurting both fighters. Froch's best ones were illegal though

[Davicious X]

The punches that made the ref step in suggests otherwise.

Froch d*ck riders will defend him to the end...it was clear that the ref fucked up it was one of the worst decisions I've seen like someone said predicting what would of happened after it is pointless

[Lenny]

ref should of stopped it in round 1 if he stopped it in round 9

and maybe again in round 2 and 4

I dont even like Froch, I thought the way he started throwing elbows and the like was cowardly, but he spent 7 and a half rounds NOT hitting Groves. WHen he finally caught him it was a wrap.

people who think that stoppage was okay don't really understand/ follow boxing and just get influenced by what sky/matchroom say

[Guest Chelsea Jack]

Also, eddie hearn is slyly destroying boxing in the UK. No big foreign fighter will show on one of his cards after the recent robberies of beltran and groves. People like to get on to Frank, but at least with him what you see is pretty much what you get.

[Haze-e]

Why will he be stripped?

[TF S4DK]

Cos Groves is the mandatory for that belt.

 

Froch said he fighting him anyway, and that Groves has mugged himself by rejecting the initial 7 figure offer, as its better than the 15% mandatory's are entitled too.

 

Groves did reply after but I aint heard it yet.
