...sharpest froch has looked since Abraham...

I thought he was behind, also the crowd were booing at times.

[AdamGB]

I had him up a round, they were all pretty nip tuck.

It took Groves too long to figure Froch's awkward jab out, Froch controlled the distance really with it and scored woth a lot more commitment. Can't say he was outboxing Groves but his timing and range were much sharper tonight. You would never have expected it if you get excited over sparring footage

Groves trying to cover it up.

He made no mistakes, fact is froch was and is a boss.

Now where's all those little groves fans gone? Are they hiding? Are they taking inches up their bottoms.

Yes Adam your spot on, not as exciting as the first fight but it was a good fight, I did fancy Groves
to win but not that much as to put a bet on it.

Eubank Jr also gave Groves a hard time in sparring. Put him down etc.

I think Eubanks gave Groves the black eye before his fight with DeGale.

He looks a talent, outside of that I don't see your point?

I was trying to support Ross post and accidently responded to your post. Junior is learning his trade in the gyms against the best fighters.

That maybe Froch wasn't any worse than usual in sparring but that Eubank is genuine quality and will push anyone. Even the toughest unified world champions in higher weights

[AdamGB]

My whole point WAS that Froch probably wasn't having terrible spars and that people saying that he was based on 30 seconds of footage with Eubank jr. were jumping to conclusions!

I agree , I'm probably biased because I tipped Groves, but I had it 4-3 to Groves and Groves was winning the 8th, but that doesn't count for anything now. Groves will be mad with himself for getting caught so open, but that's the harsh reality of boxing and to be fair his interview showed he's aware of that
