    I had Froch up by 2.He was controlling the fight, Groves success was when Froch would get sloppy. Froch ended the fight just how he intended to, though probably more spectacular than he imagined. It was not a shot out of the blue, he was teeing it up, than ****..!

        I also had it 5-2 Groves, plus he was winning the 8th.

          So landing multiple jabs that snapped Froch's head back was nothing?

          Not that it matters now because of the KO but Groves was comfortably ahead.

              haha you've taken Groves out of your list of favourite boxers and replaced him with the guy who just beat him?

              you're a joke.

                The first few rounds were razor close I though and could have gone either way. 4-3 either way sounds fair to me, but 5-2 either way is understandable. The rounds were that close.

                Froch was doing much, much better than the first time though, and really throwing Groves off with the jab.

                  That's a good point....in the first fight, he was massively pro-Groves. This fight, he was riding Carl. Then in the 7th of this fight, Groves lands a solid left hand that hurt/unbalances Froch, and he's back on pro-Groves form. One simple punch changing the narrative.

                  It's like there always has to be one fighter doing really badly, or one doing amazing (he usually focuses on the struggling fighter angle).

                  I've avoided Sky Sports commentary for so long because primarily of him that I had actually forgotten how bad he is.
                  thats honestly hit the nail on the head,
                  exactly how i saw it

                      I had groves up 4-3, but it was blatantly obvious the tides had turned...and Groves was just trying to jab his way to win rounds...Froch got those vicious body combos. #TeamCobra
