Froch getting floored in the first with the very right hand Groves had said he was going to hit him with twice was a genuine open mouth moment for me. I then jumped up and punched the air, surrounded by shocked Froch fans!

I'd go with that as well. Utterly bizzare. A saxophonist with Elephantitis of the left bollock murdering “born in the USA“ is a hard act to beat.

The growl on the Paul Gwaaaaah intro was pretty special as well.

Frock groves ending no doubt.

Another one though was score cards for Sturm vs soliman....which was added by buffer's error.

The 2 moments that stand out for me are the Froch Groves stoppage and the CJ Ross scorecard.

For me personally, the scorecard was worse. Foster made a mistake, but it was a split-second mistake, I don't for a second think any corruption was to blame, Groves' unfortunate 'chinny' reputation went against him. Compare this to CJ Ross who was under little pressure and had plenty of time sitting watching one of the biggest fights of the year, and managed to score an extremely dominant performance from Floyd as a draw. I still can't get my head round how she did it, nothing knee-jerk about it, just pure incompetence.

What about Tony Thompson saying he was so happy at the win, he was going to get hold of his wife afterwards and "break her hip" and made a request that anyone with a spare wheelchair should maybe lend it her a while !

Only a shocker to those who don't know boxing. Gonzalez only loses to southpaws plus they were gym mates and he is one of the hardest p4p punchers today

That had me in bits, he got himself a number of fans there. I think the WTF moment was clearly shown on the face of the guy interviewing him!

For something outside of the ring, Tyson Fury on twitter. The guy comes out with moments every single day and there's nothing better than watching him go into self-destruct

The WTF moment for me was the fact we heard "seconds out round 4".... Never seen a fighter as out of it not being pulled out by his corner.

I think Smogers good generally but have forgotten what he was up to in that fight.
Didn't Murat smack him and he had a go back. I know both fighter were up to some dirty antics.
