He has an unbelievable chin no doubt, but he was in big trouble in the first and I think that may be why he was so easy to hit thereafter. It seemed like he was really tense and just trying to brace himself every time Groves landed big after that, I think that's why he was so timid and reluctant to come forward and commit to his own shots. He knew he could take shots as long as he saw them coming.
I really think Groves was unlucky to catch him at the end of the first instead of letting Froch get a bit of confidence and trade with him in the next round or two, but no way to know. A rematch would be very interesting.
