Europe Groves: Froch has to give me a rematch or retire

george-groves-carl-froch_3040764Africa Top Sports reported Monday that promoter Eddie Hearn might call for a rematch between his British boxing icons Georges Groves and Carl Froch after their clash on Saturday in Manchester that saw the latter controversially stopping the unbeaten run of the former.

Froch then retained his IBF and WBA titles after the crazy match.

Trainer Paddy Fitzpatrick after highly critizing referee Howard Foster for his final decision he deems as bias, says he should be held to account.

Groves then discomforted by his controversial defeat told Skysports that Froch will stain his reputation if he does not give him a rematch.

“At the time I was sickened and gutted, but now I’ve watched the footage I’m a little angry,” said Groves. “It’s a shocking decision from the referee. I’m actually quite angry about it.”

He added: “Froch has to give me a rematch or retire. That’s his only option. There’s no other fight out there for Carl that anyone would be interested in. His credibility will be shot if he tried to take on anyone else but me.”
