Unfortunately for George tonight, he was on the end of a very heavy right hand. But we both did ourselves proud.

It was probably done by his PR and if you are cynical you could call it damage limitation after the PR disaster of the first post fight comments but It's still a marked change. After the fight he was far more magnanimous and I don't think it was just the emphatic nature of the victory that prompted it. Fair play to him he is a justifiably proud guy even if he is a touch smug. He brother is clearly a bit of a knob though and Eddie Hearn is unbearable when around him, particularly before the first fight when he should have been representing both fighters. Do not forget it was Hennessey who guided Froch up until the semi-final of the super six and yet Hearn would have you believe he made him.
