Why is saying that a bout where the holder of two belts in a division, versus a guy with no belts, and less fans willing to turn up, or buy a PPV ticket, has to happen in the Champions home country, ridiculous ? That is without factoring in the fact that the champion has already went to the country of the other guy in his first match.
Don't you get it ? Do you think Froch or Eddie Hearn care if nobody in America has heard of Froch ? Plenty of people in America are isolated and introspective to the point of deaf and blindness when it comes to any non American in any field. Froch doesn't need America, Boxing doesn't need America, The rest of the world doesn't need America.
Exactly how is Atlantic city a nearly neutral venue? It's home soil. Ward is American. Froch is English. London is not Nottingham did Froch try and argue that therefore the O2 was a nearly neutral venue?
Your flimsy stubborn refusal argument just doesn't wash, you are already making excuses for Ward before he has been offered the fight. And then you wonder why people think you come across as arrogant.
