George Groves vs Christopher Rebrasse RBR Discussion Thread

Didn't look as sharp and accurate as usual. Started getting sloppier towards the final rounds. His jab was really good though. Decent performance overall.

rebrasse had a high guard, anyone else surprised that groves didnt attack the body? groves still has clear issues with his stamina, he needs to do some hard conditioning, maybe change his strength and conditioning trainer Stamina issues? The guy just threw 1K punches!

dont get the headphones wearing thing unless he's doing it because he's sponsored by the headphone make? dre beats? doubt it he's not even putting the headphones on. just puts them around his neck i like groves, wanted him to win against froch he was getting a hit a lot by rebrasse. he was getting into tearups in some rounds when he didnt need to.. his punch output was high yet accuracy was very low.

Groves looked very sloppy. He was swinging wild with no thoughts of protecting himself. On top of that he was getting caught s lot and slowed down drastically after 6. Didn't look like the same fighter.

oh nothing interesting did groves actually call him out again ?:ugh: groves actually looks worse- i think that last knockout really took something out of him yet he acts like he is top dawg lol... i still cant get over how douchy he looks with those headphones and hat :ugh: :lol1: lol

what did froch say? He told him "2-0" when Groves asked for a third fight, and generally had a scowl on him, just called him "obnoxious" too and said he'd give Kessler the decider before Groves.

what did froch say?

DeGale would annihilate the Groves that turned up tonight. 3rd Froch fight and Groves never boxes again.

Don't be fooled by Rebrasse's resistance, those Groves punches would have knocked a lot of fighters out.

puts his headphones back round his neck.......jesus christ this guy is so cringey looks like a complete moron, IS a complete moron how he has so many fans just represents how many morons there are in this country.

'World class performance' What the fuck is that shit... No body work, he used to throw a jab to the body, didn't utilise distance properly and kept 'jumping' in and tucking under Rebrasse's guard yet didn't throw uppercuts. That was more like a glorified sparring session, he normally boxes very well bringing 'em onto his right. Didn't even look like the same fighter, I hope it was just an off night... It was pretty irritating. It's boxing 101 that when you have an opponent with a tough high guard, you go to the body to make him drop his hands. The jab to the body followed by a right hook to the head could've done wonders. The left hook to the body was there. He didn't use his brain enough and made the fight much harder than what it could've been.

the whole thing was embarrassing tbh pre fight to the ring walk to the commentary to the fight utterly embarrassing i turned it off and watched the kid galahad fight when i realised my bet wasnt coming through. awful. LOL but it was just a comeback fight what were you expecting.

F*cking hell this guy loves the sound of his own voice. Lol Froch just put him in his place

Damn, Froch just shut him down. He still hates Groves lol.

:lol1::lol1: that was good

Groves got hit a lot. Against a guy who has weak punching power, like Rebrassé it's okay, but against Dirrell I don't know. I thought it's 50-50 but after Groves today production maybe I give the edge to Dirrell. He is definitely more technical than Rebrasse and has pops in his hands. But it's still a 55-45 fight or something but now I think Dirrell's chances would be slightly better.

i think groves expected to blast him out early and then when he couldn't do that he just coasted on autopilot against a guy who didn't offer much offensively. hopefully just an off night.
