Froch between the end of the 3rd and start of the 4th has glazed eyes is constantly looking at his corner and has just admitted after the fight he did not even remember the first round knockout

If the fight wasnt stopped for that, there is no way it can be for what it was

first time ive watched a whole fight, will probably be the last. the stopping obviously ridiculous but 2 judges having it as 76 75 (and i assume froch would end up winning last round even more so probably even) is just crazy!

Stoppage ruined a very  very good fight. Think froch would've tagged him. I've never seen a fighter take as much punishment and stay on his feet

No bet in the match just hate seeing sporting injustice and that was one of the worst

Dont like Froch at all but he is as hard as anything to comeback from those first 5 rounds

Another fight ruined by a British referee with a premature stoppage. It's getting beyond a joke now. Please can we have Steve Smoger for the rematch.

Groves bossed that fight and had he been able to stick to a plan he would have won a wide UD, he decided he wanted to brawl and it cost him. Froch is one hard hard bastard though. He ate umpteen clean shots from Groves but came firing back.


Agree that the judge stopped it prematurely, but Groves was hurt and Froch could have lost every round, that matters not one jot with how the ref decides if a fighter is fit to continue.

Groves was not hurt though

why has the ref grabbed him in a headlock rather than stop Froch?

But definitely not the worst thing in sport. Not even close.

What is for you then please? I am a little drunk, I may not have been thinking clearly to say that is the worst injustice I have seen, adhering to rules wise. That might stand true for me tbh, as I don't often branch out into more than 4 sports.

if the ref was worried for his safety why is he allowing froch to hit him and then grabbing groves head?

Just watched back the main incidents

Even a Froch fan would agree he should have had AT LEAST one point deducted for late blows/ leading with arm

Good to hear Khan state it as he saw it and many others

No one is denying he was hurt, but if boxers are stopped every time they are hurt then the game is well and truly up.

The sad thing is the premature stoppage probably didn't affect the end result as Froch had got to him but it's all everyone will be talking about.
