He`ll still have a decent nights work infront of him.

Froch and witter both desperately wanted to impress here. The only reason they are prime time terrestrial in the UK is because they come as a pack and probably wouldnt get the same billing on their own.

Hopefully this polish guy isnt a spoiler and wont ruin frochs big chance to shine infront of a large tv audience. He is in a tough position as many will now expect him to get this guy out of there quickly and not have too much hassle in doing so.

Problem is this guy is 37 and has probably been around the scene his whole life. He is also unbeaten therefore knows how to look after himself and i honestly fear the worst for froch here.

Obviously he isnt gonna get beat but if the class barrier is too big this pole may just rest on his laurels and turn the contest into a scrappy affair that results in it going the whole 12 and leaving the tabloids to ask further questions about froch.

When was that?

I dont ever remember a fight between JC and CF ever been mentioned.

Nor me, Froch has only ever said he wants Calzaghe and believes he's the man to beat him, but never heard of a possible fight comming off or talks held between both parties.

Think me and kirk discussed this the other week.

I for one cant see either JC taking a huge pay cut to fight regional opposition nor can i see froch turning down the biggest pay day of his life and the chance to make himself a well known name in the sport win or lose!!

"I would have loved to fight Calzaghe in July and could have been ready. I could have gone back into training next week, but I don't think Calzaghe and his team wanted to risk sampling the power of my right uppercut!
"His promoter made an offer to me that I felt was derisory. They also turned down a very generous offer of �1.6 million from my promoter Mick Hennessy, which valued the fight at twice their amount if you work on the standard terms of the split for a purse bid.

So Froch got offered a fantastic purse and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight Calzaghe and bottled it. I already posted this when we were discussing it before.

Rybacki's alias - according to BoxRec - is Quiet Man

Does this mean he - of all people - has chosen John Ruiz as his idol? Probably not, seeing as Rybacki's is actually older than Ruiz...

Oh, well at least he has won all his (three) fights during the last 6 years. And in one of them he even stopped his opponent (30 seconds before time)!

If Froch is as good as he says he is he should have taken that fight because win or lose it would have got him onto the big stage and if he looked good he could have had a lot more pay days as a result.


For example when Zab Judh fought Spinks he was fight for next to nothing because he knew if he won it would get him back to the top.Big mistake by Froch.

Exactly, apart from it wasn't a "mistake" by Fraud, it was a careful calculation. Netting most of £200 000 to fight Calzaghe but letting Calzaghe burst his bubble makes him a busted flush. A bunch of defences of a belt he gets handed to him against no hopers in front of his deluded fans makes him a lot more cash.

Froch will probably win by KO in the 1st round and still manage to look as beatable as can be.
