    I thought Groves was edging the early rounds and I had him up. He couldn't maintain the distance though. Froch got more and more aggressive and he had no real response.

        I had Froch ahead but have no problem if anyone had Groves ahead, it was that kind of fight with maybe one punch or so separating them. It really was a case of whose work you preferred to me.

          I had it 67 to 67 before the Ko. The first round I scored it a ten round for both.

            Groves 5-2. Not that it matters. One guy went to sleep. Foch is none for these things anyhow.

                True, it was a close fight up until the KO, both guys had moments of success and moments of trouble.

                  When this question is asked I immediately thought it was asking who did the judges have ahead, and I think Froch was ahead by two judges and the other saw Groves ahead, and not what peoples opinions were.

                  But Groves usually starts quick doesn't he, and Froch would come on late and have success later on when Groves tired.

                    This. Groves was winning 5-2 but you could tell that Froch was on the verge of a break through at any minute from the 5th round on.

                      Had Groves ahead in all honestly, the commentary at Sky was Highly Biased.
