    Froch's right hand did have the final say though didn't it. It nearly killed Groves.

        Totally disappointed in Froch, Groves is showing a better mature attitude than him. As a massive fan of Froch the thing i hate about him is his mindset. He can't let go of little things.

          Froch stopped Groves in the first fight too. Groves put Froch down, Froch got back up though.
          All the other right hands he landed bounced off Froch, he just kept coming.
          Froch then stopped Groves, he was done. If it was allowed to longer it just would have ended like the first fight - Groves face down.

            he didn't "stop" Groves. He benefited from a UK stoppage. And you don't know how it would have ended.

              Both fights got stopped early. In the 2nd fight - the referee stopped Groves from standing after the knock down. Compare that to what happened to Tyson Fury in his last fight.....

                perhaps fight one was a tad early BUT you haveto admit that when a boxer turns his back to run away like Groves did, then hes asking to be stopped, and can have no complaints when he is stopped for it.

                2nd fight, is proof of the pudding so why doubt it. Still doubting after THAT means you have an agenda.

                Grvoes when prime got the best chance he could possibly have, against the worst froch, and messed it up twice. There is no case for GG, and he knows it - thats why he said far enough.

                  If a snot nosed noob heckled me nonstop for months leading up to the fight, I would hold grudges too. I would beat his ass and rub it in every chance I get .

                  I dont understand where all this Froch should be classy is coming from. Groves disrespected him for months and months and now everything is supposed to be forgotten?
                  He knocked him out so yeah you usually let go after that

                    Same but I think his cranky attitude kinda made him who he was as a fighter

                      Solid career for Groves. He gets to get out as a young and healthy millionaire. 🍻
