    After the dust settles...

    Fair play to Froch, perfect shot. He did his home work and brought his jab into play which made it hard for Groves to get into range.

    I had Groves a round up and winning the 8th before the stoppage.

    The stats show he landed 30+ more shots than Froch. The sky commentators were unbelievably biased towards froch

    I think they see Froch as an old fashioned man of the people.

    They see Groves as a typical arrogant Southern loudmouth type.

    In this case I'd tend to agree with them.

    I still think Groves is young enough to come back again.
    I thought Froch would win but at least looking at some of the comments being associated with them there is mutual respect again which imo is good.

    I had Froch three rounds up with Groves about to win the 8th.

    Not sure what fight Amir Khan was watching when he said in the 5th that Groves was in control.

    Agree with this. Groves will be a champion at some point. I'd like to see him fight Kessler or DeGale.

    He's just lost two title shots in a row. Doesn't deserve another one straight off the bat other people are queueing up for it and deserve a go. Needs to rebuild by beating a couple of contenders (like Kessler or DeGale) then he deserves another shot.

    I have not got a loving room ! DAPARKER, but living room, and billed as the biggest british title fight ever ! what about Frank Bruno vs Lennox lewis or Henry cooper vs Joe bugner.

    Take my hat off to the knockout punch and even better when you can roll a couple over before delivering. Well done mate, a classic knockout..<ok>
