Do you think George Groves will ever recover from being Cobra'd?

[Tedkidlewis]

I just rewatched that fight and even though I don't think it physically had any permenant damage on Groves, mentally that was a huge crushing defeat.
After all the build up, trash talking and the push and a pull handshake, to lose like that in front of 80 thousand at Wembley surely must have a lasting effect.

Two stoppage losses to his rival and then later losing to Badou Jack the Ripper in Vegas. 0-3 in world title fights seems harsh for what once was a talented prospect....id like to see Groves at world level again but not sure he'll ever overcome being Cobra'd.

What are your thoughts?

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

probably not and I believe its more mental than anything.

[b00g13man]

Nope. Not ever.

[Tedkidlewis]

I think the push n a pull handshake incident Cobra'd Groves a little bit.

[Beercules]

Nah. He's finished. Poor lad

[Dr Rumack]

Who's got the better chin?

Howard Foster or George Groves?

[lefthook2daliva]

prolly not

Little bit better performance in September and Groves would be WBC champion and in contention for #1 spot at 168.
Sure he needs to sort out things, but to call him finished is waaay too soon.

[Redeaux]

He looks mentally shot, but there was always that danger knowing how prideful a personality he was beforehand.

Froch took his manhood, emasculated him in front of both their lovely wives and the millions watching.
