    Groves is rightly knackered. He'll end up in Hospital yet tonight.

    I had Groves winning by 2.

    I was going to say that it came down to stronger chin, but really it was some punch by Froch. Not many could have taken that and kept going

    That was simply stunning... I had Groves in command but you cannot do anything about that. Fair play to Froch. On course for a rematch vs. Ward you'd feel.

    It wasn't domination, stop listening to that borderline disgraceful commentary. I had it level at a stretch, with Groves probably ahead. I can see Froch being ahead MAYBE by a round given that rounds were close, but I wouldn't have agreed. Very close fight until Froch landed a beautiful right hand.

    Decent fight, but commentary ruined it for me. Spent more time annoyed about what they were saying than the fight. You could tell Paulie disagreed with them but was trying to keep it friendly, for lack of a better word.

    The feint with the left was absolutely beautiful in the lead up to that shot. Groves was coming into the fight and looked a lot fresher up until that point.

    Froch proved he's the better fighter both in terms of controlling the fight and in finishing. Devastating.
