Britain has another world boxing champion.

George Groves, in his fourth attempt at becoming a world champion, achieved a lifelong dream after stopping Fedor Chudinov in the sixth round of their super middleweight bout on Saturday night. Groves, who fought Carl Froch in front of 80,000 at Wembley Stadium in 2014, stopped his Russian opponent with a devastating flurry of punches at Bramall Lane in Sheffield. The 29-year-old's flurry of unanswered shots lasted almost a full minute before the referee stepped in. You can watch it here: And here it is in slow motion: Groves was so happy after the fight, he even shared a joke with old nemesis Froch. https://twitter.com/SkySportsBoxing/status/868575355539382272
