Comments Thread For: George Groves: I Still Feel I'm Better Than Carl Froch, Badou Jack

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

you can feel anyway you like but this reminds of the time carl froch knocked you out in front of 80,000 people at the wembley stadium.

groves did a lot better in that rematch then people think, seems to be some narrative that he got whooped bad. was a pretty even fight until a fantastic shot from the cobra caught him. that can happen to anyone. the badou jack fight was very very competitive.

I dont think froch 2 was an even fight. Froch gave away a couple of rounds but the plan was to tighten up early and then bomb him out after the mid rounds when he unravels, and it was excecuted to perfection.

That was a dominant win.

You're wrong then.

Well remeber my quote tonight when hes the new champ

[Vinnykin]

Groves is the better "boxer" no doubt. Better jab, movement and technical ability than both Froch and Jack.

However! The things he was lacking in the Froch fights were experience and stamina. I thought the first fight was a boxing lesson for Froch, helped out big time by Howard Foster and the rematch was rightly ordered. He was boxing well until the Ko punch but no excuses there.

People seem to forget that Groves was green as **** for the Froch fights and had changed trainers. He needed more experience before a fight like Froch who is one of the toughest and fittest boxers around. You need to be special to beat him like Ward did, but even Froch was coming on strong in those last rounds and could have went longer.

Groves is world class and always has been. He just needed the right environement and trainer to shine. He took the Froch fight too early as he thought he could outbox him, which he did in both fights Imo. That doesn't always win fights though.

The fact that you ended up asleep on your back with your left foot between your shoulder blades proves otherwise. I think he wins tonight though.

you just dont say you are better than someone, even if you believe it, when you got stopped twice vs them, especially if that person is retired.

just reeks of delusion and arrogance and a lack of respect and humility towards the fighters who fairly beat you.

[MDPopescu]

not unless you have a right hand your not.

Bring back the right hand, George.

I actually don't think he is chatting s.hit. If I was George Groves I might have believed I was better than both of those two as well.

... That was a nice one!!! ...

I suppose but boxing is a fairly simple sport.

Groves had some pretty deadly weapons which seemed to have disappeared.

I agree with Vinnykin he is/was a world class fighter.
