Carl Froch vs George Groves IBF SMW Title & Undercards Prediction Discussion Thread

[Kris Silver]

Well then if you wanna be PC,I had it 4-4 with a extra point for Groves for a KD..

Having it a draw without the KD is vastly in the minority.

All the commentators, boxers, a long long list of ringside score cards, most fans all disagree and had Groves ahead by much more than a point.

That's great for them..Anymore pointless,list you wanna roll out??

[LacedUp]

Just rewatched the fight. My scorecard:

1 Groves
2. Groves
3. Groves
4. Groves
5. Froch (slightly)
6. Groves
7. Groves
8. Groves

Groves 80-71 - Simply got the better of the exchanges and was landing at will. Froch came on stronger as they fight went on, but really wasn't impressive in any round.

I strongly suspect Groves will win should a rematch take place. Doubt it will though.

Even tho it was clear that Groves was about to be stopped??

Groves apparently took no punishment either.

He has the worst face I've ever seen for a man who allegedly took no punishment at all.

I agree,lol..Not to mention the guy gave 1 rd to Froch..Which is pretty crazy imo..He even gave rd 8 to Groves??I really don't see how you can give that rd to Groves..It was one of Froch's best rds in the fight..

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Groves was busted up alot more than most realize,, Froch landed some hard shots throughout the fight and especially the last round...

If the ref hadnt of stopped it, i think froch would have ko'd groves for a great come from behind win, and his legacy would be even more enhanced.

As it stands now, only thing this fight will be remembered for is how well groves did, and how bad froch looked, and no one takes note of the great comeback that froch was on before it got stopped, which is a shame

[NorvernRob]

I really don't know what fight the commentators were watching??I really believe the UK does not like Froch..He does not fit what they believe a star should be or something..I mean Froch would land,they would say nothing..Groves lands they go wild..Reminded me of Bradley Pac all over again..Which is odd I usually love the commentators from across the pond..

We (not all of us, but the population in general) love a hard luck story in the UK. Most would rather have a gallant loser to cheer than an actual winner.

What happened was the best thing for Groves' career, he would very likely have lost the fight but instead he's seen as a martyr that was robbed of certain victory by a bad decision. He'll make more money now than if Froch had completed that 9th round beat down and stopped him.
