Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-09-12, good performance by both fighters: George Groves vs Badou Jack gets three stars.George Groves entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 21-2-0 (16 KOs=76%) and he is ranked as the No.5 super middleweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Andre Ward). Both his defeats occurred against Carl Froch (Froch vs Groves I and Froch vs Groves II) but after the second loss he came back to win beating Christopher Rebrasse (=Groves vs Rebrasse) and Denis Douglin (=Groves vs Douglin).
His opponent, Badou Jack, has a record of 19-1-1 (12 knockouts) and he entered as the No.13 in the same weight class. He lost to Derek Edwards last year but then he has won three consecutive fights beating Anthony Dirrell in his last one (=Dirrell vs Jack). Groves vs Jack is valid for the WBC World super middleweight title (Jack’s first defense); undercard of Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Andre Berto. Watch the video and rate this fight!

good fight bad decision
How Groves CLEARLY lost this fight
I’m OK with the decision, but I’m a bit disappointed by both fighters. I thought the were both better than that…
J’avais trouvé Badou Jack assez ordinaire contre Dirrell, mais Groves était spectaculaire contre Froch, le premier combat était fou. Tu as raison ce combat est décevant
I agree with you. But knowing the two fighters, I was expecting more intensity.
Oh and just so you know, yes I’m very busy these days and I have a lot of catch up to do.. so many fights to watch! I could’ve write a novel on my “appreciation” of the Mayweather-Berto fight, but pretty much everything has been said already by you guys!
Pretty much my view too, Olivier.
I give Jack credit for footwork that made Groves miss and often look off-balance. No need for a rematch in my view — it’s not such a compelling style matchup.
I would like to see a rematch….maybe in england…but i think it is impossible…for me it was a draw
Seems like a drawish match with slight edge to Jack but by no means a decisive performance for either. I think Jack started off boxing moving in and out but i have seen too much of beside the dirrel match he pretty much reverted to the fighter he is thats a puncher/slugger i dont see a world of skill like say a Andre Ward who does it aLL.
groves win !!! :) ….
