    Do you have eyes, how was Prov punches effective at that point?? They both were punching pretty aimlessly..Bradley got hit with a good shot a few secs before that crazy exchange by the ropes..My point is had it not been for the one punch, Bradley would have clearly won the Rd..Although hurt Bradley never gave the play away..I think most have the Rd to Prov, my point is there was a case for Bradley winning that Rd..I even seen a few people say they scored it for him..I could kinda see why, even tho me personally I did not score that Rd for him..

      Oh I don't know, maybe because Bradley was absolutely out on his feet and rocked back by Provodnikov's punches?!?!

      Good lord, I can't even have this discussion any more. Im dealing with a grade A moron.

      A guy is out on his feet and badly hurt yet he wins a round? Absolutely incredible stuff.

          You said there could be a case which is enough for you to be certifiably ******ed.

                I just rewatched it and I like yourself gave Froch 2,5 and 8. I thought 5 and 8 were pretty clear Froch Rounds. 2 could have gone either way IMO.

                I gave Groves Round 3 but I thought 3 was quite a close round aswell so I could actually see your scorecard

                So I had it 5-3 going into the 9th and Froch clearly would have won the 9th so going into the last 3 Rounds it would have been 5-4 (With a KD) on my card. Domination!!!

                After rewatching it being able to hear clearly (Was in a Casino when I watched it live) the commentary was worse than I originally thought.

                Also, to say Groves took no punishment is even more ridiculous than I once thought. Even in the rounds he won clearly like the 4th, 6th and 7th he took solid punches.

                And to say his face didn't look that bad in the post fight interview is another baffling observation.

                  Admittedly don't agree with the way you saw the rounds, but boxing is subjective so each to their own.

                  Will certainly admit that Groves did take some punishment and was very marked up in the conference after.

                  I think the 6th round did that!
