Thread: Froch praises Howard Foster for 'saving Grove's career'

BBC Sport - Carl Froch: Referee saved George Groves's career by stopping fight

"Howard Foster did a fantastic job in stopping it and saving his career,"

Froch has truly turned into (back into) a cunt.
If anyone's career was saved it weren't Groves'.

""A lot of fighters wouldn't have got up from that but me being me, I got up and carried on fighting."

What a Wanker.

Totally agree ... I used to be a big big Froch fan and used to shout about him years ago when no one on here believed he would do anything and hes always been an arrogant cunt.. I actually saw him baiting up Jim Watt during the Magee fight and heard exactly what he said because i was sitting behind him, but that post fight interview has really put me off him now.
The way the crowd reacted as each fighter spoke says it all ;-)
Froch acted a cunt and he gets enough respect with his fists so really theres no need for it at all

Jesus, he is so cringeworthy. A real life David Brent.

Its a bit naughty of Carl , the only thing he should be saying to the press is, George fought a hell of a fight and he deserves a rematch.

Froch is a disgrace for saying that

I swear if Froch was a cat he has used up every one of boxing lives (Dirrell, Taylor and now Groves)

Howard Taylor should NEVER be allowed to ref a fight again.

I would not even trust him with a dog fight...hell... even two cockroaches fighting I would not have Taylor

Groves was never going to win this fight without gong thru a rocky patch. That was his rocky patch. Honestly I don't think you will ever see a Gatti-Ward type match in the UK, they'd just stop the fight at the first sign of danger.

I think they should withhold Howard Taylors fee and the IBF should order a mandatory rematch

I felt robbed. The crowd felt robbed and to me Groves is still undefeated.

The thing is maybe Froch might have KO-ed Groves or properly stopped Groves so we would all be left in no doubt as to who was the better fighter on the night but we don't know. The more I watch the stoppage, the worse it get's. A total abomination

And now Froch praises Taylor like he was battering Groves for nine rounds ?

Are you dizzy Froch ?

When in actuality they were the ONLY thirty seconds of the fight that he was on top and the ref stops it ?

I think the IBF should award this fight a no contest because it wasn't a fight

and don't forget, everyone loves him, we know this because he said so.

I hope his next shits a hedgehog!

The ref stepped in and saved frochs career not groves

Yep if anyone's career was shortened last night it was carls. Round after round taking massive head shots. Not what the body needs at 36

I said he was a prick when he first started getting coverage and nothing he's done since has changed that opinion

Carl is being a prick as his timely retaliation to Georges goading during the build up to this fight. Let's be honest, yes Carl is a prick but George was hardly (and thus probably is not ever) a 'saint' himself.

Having said that - all this post fight Jibba jabba is worrying sign that Carl is adding cherries to a half-baked cake.

We, they, boxing needs the rematch.

Carl seems to be getting more and more deluded post fight, his self belief is going to be is downfall, it nearly was last night.

When he got dropped, he got overcome with "Hutton Syndrome" he thought he was invincible, turned square on and just started swinging. Schoolboy errors all night that Groves exploited with ease.

If he rematches Ward he will get embarrassed.

Froch needs to avoid any slick, young fighters. Everyone he has faced in their mid-early 20's he has really struggled with. The legacy is getting tarnished and if he keeps on talking shit, he's going to retire hated, wgich would be a shame as everyone has only just started liking him again.

I saw the fight. Yes it was stopped too soon. On the other hand Grove was taking a beating in that round. We all know when Froch is putting his shots together he can do some real damage. It was just a matter of time before Grove would hit the canvas. A rematch is in order. Let's not feel sorry for Grove. He has a big payday coming his way.

Missy girl, all fighters talk shit. He's not as bad as Tyson Fury who doesn't even have the talent that froch does. Talking shit is a way a fighter gets more people to watch, Thus makes more money. A fighters career is short. He has to make as much money as he can. Plus Froch is getting old and doesn't have much time left. So let's get off his back. He has had a great career.
