Froch had a good 30 seconds but Groves had fought back from the ropes a few times. Froch was lucky to get the win though for me Groves has gained an awful lot and Froch has lost a fair bit, his post bout interview was horrible, he loses fans when he opens his mouth, Groves was the moral victor.
Was an awful stoppage and to be fair nobody wins. A amazing fight gets tainted, Froch doesn't have a chance to record an incredible, heroic victory (which I think would have happened), Groves doesn't get a chance to carry on the fight (that he was winning) and everybody is left feeling robbed in one way or another.

I am of the thinking that is was Groves making Froch look worse than he was rather than age. Groves is going to be fun and undoubtedly a world champion.

If Adam Booth was his trainer last night, GG would have won

He wouldn't have let him go into a slog fest and would have won on points

It wasn't Froch's age, its his style against speed

There should be a rematch but I would rather see them fight someone else before the rematch happens. I think Groves should try to get Bika even if he had to travel for it. Froch needs a bigger name next, I would say Hopkins is closer to happening than it was, Chavez could happen and GGG after Froch's performance last night beats Froch even at the higher weight class.
