      Callum Smith retired a prime 30yr old George Groves fresh off a win over Eubank Jr. and made him want to not box again.

      Carl Froch beat a raw just entering his prime 26 yr old George Groves.
      buddy youre a fool ha this guy is a fool noone listen to his opinion, say what you want about me but the following is objective facts - George groves fought callum smith coming off of a bad shoulder injury that he suffered in the eubank jr fight, rushed to the fight without full fitness or a tune up due to the WBSS format, he also had no ambition at this point in his career, he admits himself in recent interviews that he lost ambition and it became just a grind to win a world title after the failed attempts rather than the hunger and love he once had, he was relieved to beat chudinov and achieve his dream, he was traumatised and not the same after the gutknetch tragedy. The froch fights and the badou jack war took stuff out of him, he was DEFINETELY not as good and fresh and hungry as the version that faced froch.

      Also, dirrell who faced froch was at his ****ing peak, did you even watch the fight, these guys the dirrells they burnt out like fireflys but they were hot at one point, well andre definetely was, he fought uztageiu(?) like a decade later. irrelevant comparison. can only imagine you're a troll having just seen you're now comparing different versions of glen johnson. so never mind the triangle theory its the fact that these guys fought different versions of these fighters at differents stages of their careers.

        Next you'll be saying that Ali is a bum because he was beaten by Holmes who was beaten by Tyson who was beaten by Douglas who was beaten by Lou Savarese.
        You’re a dumbass. Callum ko’ed a prime 30yr old George Groves while Froch fought a young 25yr old Groves. Gtfoh

          With Canelo's punch placement, timing, accuracy, speed and power, I think it's safe to say he would have knocked Froch the fk OUT!

            Keep telling yourself that you ****** fanboy. Callum KO’ed a prime 30yr old George Groves and sent him to retirement.

            Froch beat a young inexperience 25yr old Groves.

            Dumbass.

              Same Froch who went life and death with Glen Johnson? The guy who got schooled by Avni Yildirim? Lmao good one.

                Froch would’ve done well against canelo and definitely would’ve won rounds. He was good and very underated. He would be canelo best opponent ever.

                  Callum Smith probably thought the same thing about Canelo’s size .

                  I don’t think the triangle theories around Smith, Froch and Groves make sense. Smith was drained as eff vs Canelo, Groves was shot to pieces after the Eubank fight injury , Froch significantly damaged Groves in their 2 fights so I do think Froch fought a good/best Groves and Smith fought the ghost of Groves rushing back from an injury
