Carl Froch should go down as a all time great.

    Carl Froch will be in the Hall of fame someday, but he's not an all-time great.

    He's been outboxed several times in his career. He gets by on his chin, and durability.

      Nah man, George was hurt. Stoppage was BS though and who knows he may have gotten through it, he deserved the chance after his performance and the fact that he was undefeated and challenging for a world title

        I no doubt will never forget Froch - he is a damn warrior and always comes to fight. He took a bomb in the first round and never stopped fighting. That stoppage was way premature, but I think the end was coming for Groves.

                    Everyone's upset because the ref didn't give Groves a chance to take more flush punches to the head.

                    They shout robbery, trying to shroud the fact that Groves was fading fast, and their mixed feelings of "Brave" Groves in the first half got their spirits up, that they didn't want it torn down.

                    It's a shame that no one is talking about the heart of a champion Froch who fought back from a serious 1st round KD to come back and TKO Groves who (as usual) gassed.

                    Groves is better ... yet he can't beat a 'club fighter' like Froch, yeah seems legit.

                      Maybe not the best technically but he is a hell of a fighter, with an iron will to go along with his chin.
