    Groves was doing a bit better , nothing spectacular but his jabs were landing , I also remember a nice counter right off the ropes and of course the left hook that stunnned Froch.

    The Cobra wasn't doing much, just some occasional charge to steal rounds. But when things started to get bad and he needed to land, he landed big.

      Round 4 was Froch, all the rest Groves. Big controversy, seems like no one has the same scorecard.

          I had it 68-65 Groves (5 rounds to 2). I thought he was quite obviously pot-shotting the first half of the first to converse energy, and was coming on stronger in from the 7th. Am I going crazy thinking he was up that far?

          Jim Watt was a complete nightmare tonight. I had no idea what he was watching. Paulie, normally a brilliant commentator, seemed to be reluctantly ****** into Watt's nnsense and wasn't himself.

          Hell, I thought it was hilarious when they tried to lead Khan into a narrative of Froch being dominant and he went the other way (one of the rare times when Amir has made sense lately).

          Your scores?
          That is exactly what I had it aswell I was scared incase I was scoring it wrong doubting myself because of the commentary but the fact Khan said he had Groves ahead is probably the only reason I continued scoring what I thought I was seeing i.e. the better punches and better work.

            I had it 4-3 for Froch. Some rounds was quite close.

                I had froch up by a point but wouldn't argue it either way the rounds were close which is why there is such a big discrepency in the scores. Jim is a TERRIBLE commentator he just can't keep his bias out of it. (honestly if the commentary was switched off/i watched it back I wouldnt be surprised if I had groves up)

                fair play to froch it looked like groves was really starting to tee off on him in the last round or two and then ****!

                  4-3 Groves but he was fading fast. Froch found more opportunities to land his flurries. That KO punch combo was a beauty.

                      5-2 Groves. I was surprised at how closely it mirrored the first fight. Froch stepped on the gas around the same time and Groves responded in pretty much the same manner. The only major difference was that Groves never unloaded the big shots early on. As it happened he seemed to run out if gas anyway so being more tentative didn't work out for him in the end.
