    thanks smash up. I missed the fight as I was on a flight to Dubai. I'm sat in the lounge and have just watched the fight you posted.

    I've always though Froch was as tough as old boots, but he can be out boxed. I didn't expect him to get shaken up so badly in the first round!

    Definitely a premature stoppage, but it did look as if Carl was grinding him down at that point. Ref should have let him go down to see if he would get up.
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    What surprises me is the criticism that some have for Froch here.

    Why exactly?

    The ref, I can understand.

    Yeah dont get it either the stoppage was shit but hardly frochs fault, and I think he was goingn to grind groves down he had three more rounds to do it and I'm pretty sure he was gettin it done.

    thanks for posting this fight~!!! that is such bullshit!!! he wasn't even that hurt at all...
    Groves deserves a rematch at least, and the boxing organization should fire that idiot ref for that hideous call.

    Because there isnt such a thing. If you dont go down then its either a stoppage or not as far as I am aware. (doesnt change the fact the ref intervened too soon)

    Not true...plenty of fights where one guy might buckle a bit or wobble back an lean on the ropes and get a standing 8 count.

    Just like those other British referees from Hatton-Tszyu, Calzaghe-Manfredo, Foster was payed under the table with some side money..

    Keep his facebook on tab from this point on.. IF he posts pictures of himself with hot bitches, u know he's spending that money..

    Seriously check the rules, I do not think this was an option for the referee in this fight.

    I don't really think Groves was that hurt , he was just getting caught , that's boxing.
    I think Groves could have easily recovered and fought on to win.
    Rematch is all Froch can do to save face.
    Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .

    I dont need to check the rules, maybe you should watch this around 1.30 , the guys buckled , wobbled , all over the ropes but doesnt go down and gets a standing 8 then goes on to win the fight

    Like i said ive seen the same in shitloads of fights over the years

    Ever heard of a no-standing-8-count rule?

    Never mind. New guy beat me to it.

    Good post btw.

    And as you can see from the video you posted the ref ruled it a knock down as the ropes had held him up. That is not a standing 8 count.

    This does not change the fact that the fight was stopped to early, but also rules out completely as far as I am concerned the standing 8 count option. The referee did not have it at his disposal.
