little whitt Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 If you thought that was a good fight then I'm happy for you. You got your money's worth. I saw something that came nowhere close to a good fight. The first fight promised much in this rematch. Unfortunately it didn't produce.

jules_darby Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Well I enjoyed it Was hoping for a few more rounds as it was getting more and more interesting after the first couple of rounds when both clearly had that massive fear of not wanting to make a mistake to lose it; which is understandable for Froch after the 1st round last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DazBob Posted June 1, 2014 Members Share Posted June 1, 2014 Looked to me like Groves had been pacing himself so he could come in strong in the second half of the fight. Looked like the plan was working as he looked to be gaining the upper hand ... then BANG. Fair play to Froch, no arguments from anyone this time. He thoroughly deserved that win.

Underpants Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It was although Groves didn't really turn up I thought he was just getting back in to it then bangClear winner... Both stood and fought...Serious question.... What did you want? Obviously more than you. I was not expecting a toe-to-toe slugfest. What we got, for most of the fight, was a Mexican stand off with the odd sortie by both fighters. If you enjoyed it, then wonderful. It was a average title fight for me. Nothing more, nothing less.

L/H White Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It was a good fight even without the KO. The best fight I've seen at 2 in the morning in my keks in bed in Kabul with a 15 year old Glenlivet, actually. Glad to see Groves looking silly. Always good when a mouthy twat gets humbled. He'll have to fight DeGale again and Froch can finish off with a big night in Vegas against Golovkin or Chavez. I would advise Chavez because Golovkin would banjo him. In fact I think Golovkin would even beat Adrian Morley. Work in 2 hours. Night. Golovkin, is that the chap who took Cleverly to bits? Brutel power that chap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another forum I visit (boxing) last nights ref chatted to one of the posters afterwards Said golovkin was the best fighter he'd reffed 'so cold, efficient and clinical' I think were the words Froch would have size advantage though you'd think Makes sense in many ways, golovkin needs the breakout fight, and froch could command the fat end of a Vegas purse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L/H White Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Nope I know who I meant now :-) anyway, golovkin, 26 KO's in 29 fights some going that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledwhite2 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I know who I meant now :-) anyway, golovkin, 26 KO's in 29 fights some going that You were thinking of Kovalev - another stupidly heavy handed eastern euro Golovkin is far more classy though, pinpoint accurate, destructive puncher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Don't know the actual number, but I read earlier that PPV generated £23M - sounds a bit high to me though to be honest, unless it was sold overseas as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannyroad58 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 A lad i work with said that he didn't pay for it, his mate phoned him just as the fight started and told him to put PPV on and it was on for free I fucking hope that wasn't the case the sky bastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L/H White Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Groves deserved to get KO due to the fact he's sponsored by JD and Duffer, the tramp. Hope he spends his purse on some decent clobber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tylswhite Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Has happened in the past, it's their fall back plan if the phone lines or encryption go tits up So all them that paid full price and rung up in the thousands crashed the system and everyone else got it for free?
