    Didn't actually watch their broadcast, but apparently Khan had Groves winning by 2 rounds.

    Was more referring to the general bias of British commentary, no one ever comes out of a BoxNation/Sky Sports broadcast with a level-headed objective view of the fight, especially with a British star involved.

      He lost to a **** average fighter. Hes finished. I'm just gutted I won't get to see DeGale clean him out in a unification.

        Don't know how some people saw Groves winning though, you need to stop sipping on that BoxNation kool aid.
        HAHAHAHA. Yes, Box Nation is always very biased towards UK fighters. I also had Badou Jack winning a close fight. Jack vs DeGale would be a good fight.

              It was a very ****** move for Groves not to take DeGale fight. Yes he would probably loose that one, but it would have been huge.. It still might happen, but now DeGale is the A side.

                I found Farhood's extremely strange, Groves did some very good work and Jack couldn't really take Groves jab away and he couldn't adjust to Groves looping right hand, he bent at his knees once and ducked it but only once, the rest of the fight he was eating that looping right flush or partially blocked, looked inexperienced tonight but Groves made a statement.

                Cong**** to Jack anyways, he's not as bad as I thought, fought with a lot of confidence, good for him he was an underdog 2 times in a row and managed to win, I'd still have him as an underdog against Degale and he loses a landslide against Ward, Mayweather should get him a couple of easy fights now and get him a couple of good paydays before he fights someone tough, he's good but limited.

                  I believe I said Groves should win because Jack is **** but I also have no faith in Ugly Kid at this stage.

                  Most of my posts were "Don't *** this up Ugly Kid" and lo n behold, he did.
