    For what its worth I had Groves 5-2 up and at the time of the KO. I Have no idea what Jim Watt was watching.

    Exactly how I had it, watt is going senile. Khan had Groves ahead too.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I'm surprised Jim could even speak with Froch's cock jammed so far down his throat. And there were times when he was arguing or trying to contradict something Paulie, the fucking pro boxing champion, was saying. Ugh. Give me Lampley or even Mauro over that idiot any day.

    Does anyone know how much each fighter made for this fight?

    Froch got 8m AND Groves 2m, so not a bad pay day for both.

    "Ugh? Paulie the fucking pro boxing champion.."

    Watt was lightweight champion of the world after Duran and went 15 rounds with Alexis Arguello and Ken Buchanan, two fighters that you proably don't rate because they came from an era when according to you most opponents were bums. Paulie got the krap beaten out of him by Hatton (whilst having his hair cut) and Khan, and was one year old when Watt retired. I like Paulie but fucking Lampley and Mauro are terrible and it is quite laughable that however bad you think Watt's commentating is (and you are certainly not alone on that) that you are so outraged that the Host channel/Countries commentator should contradict the guest.

    Come on beanz Jim Watt is a shocking commentator. Apart from his clear inability to score a fight, its like he doesnt watch boxing apart from when hes commentating meaning he knows fuck all about the guy the matchroom boxer is fighting. I cannot stand listening to him on sky. They need some young blood. Paul Smith would be decent I think.

    I was rewatching the Bute Fight, 1 minute in the fighters are broken by the ref and both told off... Froch was clearing holding Bute and throws a few shots whilst doing so.

    Watt: the referee is trying to stamp his authority early there, I couldn't see ANYTHING illegal.

    Arguello was great, Buchanan is overrated/average.

    Didn't know he was a boxer... I guess he got in at the right time after Duran left the division. Feasted on bums no doubt.

    I had Groves 4-3 up and winning the 8th. Does anybody know yet what the judges scorecards were at the finish?

    I'd gave groves round 2, 6 and 7 and was giving him the 8th.

    Really notable win for Froch as he boxed better and ended the fight earlier than before.

    On Sunday morning rewatch was actually a very level headed smart plan by Froch. Announce team made it sound he was being absolutely clowned most of it.

    My mate said that 2 had Froch by 1 and one had Groves by 1. Not the worst cards but think judges need to cop on and understand fighters can win fights on the back foot.
