    The lesson is that elusive footwork means nothing if you mount little offense.

    Froch is the slower fighter but he proved he only needs one chance.

    But what a right hand it was.

    It was 50% cross and 50% overhand <laugh>

    Stayed up well past my bedtime to watch this, partly because it was shown for free here and partly because I don't often get to stay up so late on a school night.

    Good fight though, was hoping Groves would win but after seeing his stupid WWE entrance on a London bus, i'm not bothered he got smashed.

    Oh, didn't know. Fair play.

    Am stuck working all weekend, so getting stoned and popping out for the odd pint but it's not exactly a wild one. Get an extra £200 for not doing much though <cool>

    Why do they work such ****ed up days? Is it a religious thing?

    Holy Day is a Friday, so it's just how they roll. Actually means a Sunday is a write off because almost no where else on the planet is working it.

    Wouldn't mind getting stoned <ok>

    I really can't see Froch being as ordinary as he was last time out.

    Think we'll see the kind of Froch performance that we witnessed against Bute and then Kessler the second time.

    Groves will get knocked-out in the 8th Round <ok>

    Is DeGale not mandatory now?

    Thought groves lacked experience and was too impatient. Fair play to Froch. He shut a big mouth

    120.

    Unless DeGale himself has got it wrong, coz that's what he said on SSN earlier.

    I really can't see Froch walking away and letting his titles go like that.

    He should smash DeGale and then get his Las Vegas dream fight to finish with <ok>

    Probably is 120. DeGale would know better than me.
    I think he's all wrong for Froch and would cause a lot of bother. I really don't think there's that much money in it either. It's a risk to walk into that fight with one eye on Vegas. It's also a risk to go to Vegas without a belt to sell a fight with Chavez Jnr.

    A nice problem to have.

    Tricky ****er, James DeGale. Probably not in Froch's league yet though.

    Style-wise Froch wouldn't enjoy boxing DeGale but he would simply mow through him.

    I think Groves is actually stronger than DeGale physically and Froch would swat him away :)
