    I was really excited for this fight n tuned in on dvr of course.

    It was a so-so fight up til the KO. Was rooting for Froch so I was happy. But it was hardly a classic.

    Yeah the first fight was exciting but the second was a bit dull. Although the figures involved may make it the boggest fight in British history, the action itself is not worthy of being called the biggest fight in British history.

    Groves didnt let his hands go as much as in the first and made it easier for froch to march in.

    I read that 900,000 uk fans paid for it on ppv
    I tuned in as I always do when the Cobra fights.

    Froch and Warren set that up perfectly. They sold the living fuck out of that drama post first fight and pre-second fight build up.

    That can't be done again anytime soon. I doubt it. It was one of those moments.

    80 thousand people plus in Wembley? Are you fucking kidding me?!!? Shit was bananas!!!
    They had the right of it for sure and I think it took on a life of it's own. I agree with you about Groves being a major factor in it's success.
    The fight didn't disappoint either.

    People on Sky were calling it the biggest fight ever... I wouldn't even call it the biggest British fight ever. Millions tuned into Eubank and Benn, despite Froch - Groves 2 being held at our national stadium the access that the public enjoyed in being able to watch Eubank-Benn and Henry Cooper-Ali make them bigger British fights in my opinion.

    Could you imagine how massive Eubank and Benn would have been now!

    If those two wanted to, they could promote a fight now and it would be huge.
