Froch VS Groves Fight (Video)

[Fairweather]

Thanks for putting it up.

Look at the odds there! Groves 13/2 for the points win. Heavy underdog. I put money on a Groves decision win so was gutted at that stoppage. Maybe Froch would've gone on to KO him though, (need to watch it through).

If they rematch I won't get such generous odds again.

[Los Zetas]

A rematch is in order.

Yes I would like to see one. Froch looks slower than ever and he was never the fastest anyway.

Groves can win if his stamina is at least to the 10th.

If he fades at 6, then Froch will come on strong.

That wasn't a fare shake for Groves, he had Froch just as dazed a few times.
I'm amazed that these fellows are top contenders however, both have horrible form and no techniques to speak of. They throw their jabs and both "row it back" you can't miss either one with right hands also.
I thought I was watching two Rocky Gratziano's, no form, no style, no athletizism!
Besides all that the kid should have and could have gotten a better look and even if he was going to be done he fought hard and deserved a better "look see" from the ref. Oh well back to the gym drawing board and hopefully they find a trainer to teach them how to box. Ray.

His trainer is the same as David Haye's trainer, but 10 weeks a go said he won't train him over something.

Check the interview, at 0.40 I think he says he had to get a new trainer and he had tears too.

Froch has always had terrible form. Turned pro at 25.

Horrible. The ref was looking to jump in when there was a pause in action to stop it. I like Froch but that was terrible and looks like it was a fixed fight.

Thanks for posting

Thanks for the link. Horrible stoppage, Groves wasn't even hurt.

Stoppage looks worst on second viewing. Groves wasn't even that hurt. He was throwing and fully aware. What a **** stoppage

Two observations

1) I suspect, like someone else said earlier, that like Bradley vs Ruslan, Froch was concussed or lost his legs in the first round. Looked bad after every shot and off balance ever after the KD. In a rematch, I actually like Froch to win if he can avoid the earlier bight right.

2) Froch, to his great credit, did what greats do: he knew he had to KO Groves so he took every risk imaginable. Groves was one good counter away from KO'ing Froch.

I missed the fight so thanks for the link...and yes the stoppage was ridiculous.
