Comments Thread For: Groves: I Let Carl Froch Into Range and Paid The Price

[Check_hooks]

Any news on how damaged Groves's knee is? If Pacquiao put Bradley in a wheelchair and in crutches, that Groves should be in a wheelchair as well

[Sane Man]

Right. He "let" Froch into range. His "complacency" allowed him to get knocked out.

He's obviously giving Froch his proper due.

"It's boxing and fair play to Carl - he caught me and I went down," he said.
"I've got to hold my hands up - Carl caught me with a shot, but I'll come back bigger, better and stronger.
"Ultimately I feel like I let myself down but congratulations to Carl, fair play, he got the punch."

Sounds like he gives Froch his dues for that PUNCH there. That's all I'm speaking about. Giving credit for how good that punch was. Not whether Groves feels he let Froch into range and was complacent. He was complacent. But Froch measured him for that shot perfectly.

Complacency??? That started with your nonsense pick of a trainer who had no recognition. Plus your style of boxing is totally ineffective off the back foot, being sat on your back foot against a taller fighter, with no supreme slip and counter. Defense was porous too, well done Carl

Did you even read what you typed there?

"I've got to hold my hands up.."

"Ultimately I let myself down.."

Yes. All sorts of credit being given. He "complacently let" Carl knock him out.

Good fail.

I duno what fitzpatrik is teaching groves cause roach wouldnt advise him to throw blind wild punches like that.

[yoz]

Groves can comeback. He'll be in world title contention again in a couple of fights.

Are you fcuking ******ed?

He gave him credit for landing a great shot. But Groves thinks it was a shot he shouldn't have got caught with. That opinion is debatable. I think Froch deftly set him up for it. Others might disagree. That's it. End of story.

You seem pretty comfy there on Carl's ****

I won't respond further because people in NSB love to play the straw man ad nauseum. Gets tiring.

Saying "fair play" is giving credit? He HAD to choose his words carefully at ringside, moron. Are you ******ed?? His "complacency" and the fact that he "let" Froch get into position are the reason he got knocked out. Why try and contradict George, idiot boy? To try and save your little argument? Keep failing.

Carl Froch settled his rivalry with George Groves in brutal fashion as he knocked his bitter enemy out cold with a crunching right hand in the eight round of their record-breaking Wembley Stadium rematch.

Groves blamed a moment of complacency on being caught by the knockout blow. "I felt I was ahead on the scorecards and I was in my groove, but I think complacency let me down," he said at the news conference.

"Carl Froch is a seasoned world champion and there's no quit in him. I was boxing very well but I let complacency creep in and that needs to be eliminated.

Saint G's youth and inexperience betrayed him once again.....nothing to be ashamed of though, Froch is just a Monster.....what can I say, you have to use words like BEAST, ANIMAL, WARRIOR and my personal Froch fav, SPARTAN to describe him.....props to the Cobra

as for Saint G.....the kid is one of the biggest draws in the Sport now, thanks to 80,000 strong carried into Wembley on Saint G's back.....of course cats gonna credit Froch with filling up that Stadium but Saint G made it happen imo.....props kid, hold your head high fam, again....nothing to be ashamed of....your time will come!!
