First topic message reminder :

Massive night of boxing ahead. Whose in for the long haul and staying up for the Pacquiao vs Rios fight?

Would love to see George stop him, just to hear Carl's excuses.

by SweetScience Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:51 pm

Cracking from groves

by **hampo17** Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:52 pm

Wow! Who saw that coming? He was gone there

by jimdig Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:52 pm

Holy shed!!! Haye wasn't talking poop!!!

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:52 pm

Froch down in round 1, never saw that coming

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:52 pm

Great start.

Didn't see the punch.

by Sir. badgerhands Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:53 pm

What the deuce!!!!!!

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:54 pm

Jim has groves on the brain.

by **hampo17** Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:55 pm

Froch looks scared to me, doesn't want to let his hands go because he gets hit by that right hand every time.

by jimdig Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:56 pm

Carl is screwed, he'll need another round or two to clear his head, if he can last that long.

by Rick James Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:56 pm

Me, check my posts.

I said Groves would KO Froch!!!!!!!!

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:56 pm

He's been played at his own game with the Jab

by Sir. badgerhands Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:57 pm

Frock has always been easy to tag but these shots seem to be hurting tonight.

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:57 pm

Slow start from Froch. Groves has quicker hands.

Froch will get into it more as the rounds go on.

by Sir. badgerhands Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:57 pm

Froch* bloody predictive text.

by Izzi Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:59 pm

feck me what a fight!

by horizontalhero Sat Nov 23, 2013 10:59 pm

Listening on the radio, hard to get an ideas of who won the last two rounds? Thoughts?

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:00 pm

Groves up by 4.

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:00 pm

2-1 Groves if Froch is lucky tbh Horizontal

by rob-glos Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:01 pm

Eddie Hearn looks a bit glum.

by SweetScience Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:03 pm

Frotch will find his way back

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:03 pm

Froch with the cheapshot after a break to Grove's eye

by Izzi Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:04 pm

can see Froch getting knocked out here. saying that i said Froch would win easily... so Froch probably knocks him out inside 10 seconds of the next round

by Lance Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:04 pm

awful ref. froch hitting on the break, back of the head and holding when hitting

Commentary far too skewed towards groves.

by horizontalhero Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:06 pm

Thanks for the scores Strongy, appreciated.

by Izzi Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:07 pm

4-1 to Groves, Froch making a lot of mistakes looking below average

These are my scores not from Sky.

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:10 pm

This really is in the trenches.

Warriors..

by Izzi Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:11 pm

Frochs gone, reckon they might pull him out if he doesn't get rendered unconscious

What a fight!!!!!!!!!

by **hampo17** Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:11 pm

Anyone know where Groves found this chin from?

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:12 pm

5-1 Groves

round 6 an absolute pounding from Groves + a good back and forth brawl in the middle

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:13 pm

Groves doesn't want to get cocky.

by Hammersmith harrier Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:13 pm

Froch is starting to shrug the right hands off Izzi so don't know why they would pull him out, await to proved wrong as he gets knocked out.

by Izzi Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:13 pm

Is Groves running out of steam a bit?

by Fernando Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:13 pm

inexperience could cost Groves if not careful

by milkyboy Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:15 pm

Groves 5 points up for me.

by Guest Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:15 pm

I can see a draw decision here. Should it go all the way.

by milkyboy Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:16 pm

Make that 6 points.

I've just said exactly that on twitter, Groves will get robbed if it goes the distance.

by Strongback Sat Nov 23, 2013 11:17 pm

Froch is willing to take the right hand to land his own.

I see this going Froch's way from now on.

Groves does look puffed a bit as somebody above said.

Would just go into the boxing hall of fame for stupid decisions
