Before the fight I didn't post a predicton because I saw this as a 50-50 fight.
But wow, Froch scored a sensational one punch KO over Groves. That's one of the better one punch KO's Ive seen in years. Perfect right hand catching Groves on the side of the jaw and dropping him instantly. Great stoppage by the ref as Groves was in no position to continue.
Gotta give Froch his due. He's beaten some of the very best in recent years (Bute, Groves, Pascal, Kessler) and even his losses to Ward and Kessler were very close fights.
HBO has now spoken about Froch fightibg Golovkin, Chavez JR, or a rematch with Ward. Froch has stated that before he retires he wanted to fight Chavez JR in Vegas. But Chavez is currently having promotional issues and may be switching over to Showtime so Im not sure how feasible it is. Ward is also currently having promotional issues and is involved in a legal battle with his promoter.
Id love to see GGG vs Froch! In the past Ive picked Bute over Froch and was wrong. But I really think GGG would be too much for Carl and Id see a GGG decision or late stoppage win. GGG vs Froch in an English football stadium would be awesome.
