The Official Froch v Groves bill RBR thread

[Taansend]

Premature stoppage for me. Think the fight should have continued.

Yep, should have been aloud to continue.

They should have quietly let it go on

[Neil Gee]

Jim Watt did well. He had the same score card as all three judges.

[Final round]

Mitchell was having a torrid time in there at times but showed real toughness to dig himself out. Good fight.
Also is that Ceel Lo Green or Carl Cox sitting behind Joshua

It's Bermane Stiverne

8) is it?! Well spotted. I thought he was bald.

Not great jimbo is brutal.

I heard it was stopped a bit early

[ILikeBeer]

5 cans in. I got 2 more for the DeFail fight, and 2 for the main event.

I have shitloads of beer left, mate. Pop over.

I live next door to a pub. I have been known to nip next door, buy a pint and 90 seconds later be drinking the same pint in my living room.

He's got dreads like the Predator, mush!

[danconnollyeire]

To be fair and I agree when there's so little time left we say they should be given that minute in between round to recover but ref are told not to consider that

[Crease]

On second consideration the stoppage maybe was at the right time. The guy was falling to the side on the count of eight.

[expe]

Maduma was knackered he could barely stand up. The stoppage was correct.

I saw it the same way, there was a good argument for stopping him before the first knockdown when he was staggering round the ring with his hands down.

[ILikeBeer]

James DeGale next. He's tied with Ronnie O'Sullivan as the person in sport who annoys me the most.

[ILikeBeer]

About to open beer number 6.

[cutsman]

Chunky will show his true class here

[Neil Gee]

Let's not forget he's the only star from the 70's not to be tried for sexual abuse.

[Crease]

About to open beer number 6.

I'm lovin' the ongoing commentary of your alcohol consumption.

[Boxing Prospect]

DeGale going out with bad intentions!

[Crease]

Chunky will show his true class here

Let's hope so. It should line up a domestic showdown with the winner of Froch/Groves...
But I wonder if both organisations will sanction it for their titles.

[Crease]

DeGale has this fight in the bag. I can see him KOing or TKOing this guy.

[Boxing Prospect]

Oosthuizen made this guy look good...

[Datsue]

I like the Septic's body work but I worry about his punch resistance.

If DeGale bites down hard here I think he could take him out. I don't think he'll enjoy going in deep waters with this fella.

[stevieb_8006]

shit my teles packed up. anyone ot a stream please?

[Deserter]

poo my teles packed up. anyone ot a stream please?

x2

[Horse]

British stoppage!

[qatarm]

Horrible stoppage.

[sendo]

That was pretty awesome by Degale to get the knockdown, just blasted him from all angles.

Way too early a stoppage though. fornicating hell.
