Can't see there being a problem with Froch getting there, He'll get over easy enough by Ferry and most of the hard training should be done. The climate isn't really much different from britain so that shouldn't be much of a factor, although i'd have already been there myself. I'd have made plans as soon as the cloud of ash appeared and shut down airports.
Is a ferry really a fitting way for a world champion to travel though?
It's like if all the roads were gridlocked forcing a world champ to ride through the fields on the back of a tractor, hardly the most glamourous of arrivals.
Maybe not, but Froch likes to think of himself as a man who'll fight anybody, anywhere and under any circumstance, so a bit of a ferry ride and then drive should not hurt him too much!
Being a Froch "hater" I cant help but smirk at all the negatives here, it will be piissing the team off that hes having less prep time in Denmark. He may get quite tired from an 18 hour boat trip then another few hours in a taxi, he may even be someone that gets sea sick;D
He will also now be at the throat of that thick twaat Hennesey for not sorting out an alternative route by now and having it all out on forums and becoming a joke;D
I watched the new 360 programme on the tournament and in a meeting with all the other promoters it sounds to me that Hennesey is trying to sound even more cockney, like a cuunt, like something out of lock stock:rolleyes:

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
jeez what the hell is wrong with this forum and the endless hating on froch
Even i`ll admit he comes across as a complete twat outside of the ring. But what exactly has he done inside it other than beat everybody his ever fought including taking out pascal, taylor and dirrell in the space of a year to warrant such distaste??
Froch is a class fighter, he`s favourite to win the super6 for a very good reason. Once he does eventually have the opportunity to hand both ward and dirrell(again) their arses on a plate i anticipate a lot of sour, bitter people on this site

"froch wont beat pascal" HE DID
"pascal isnt that good of a fighter anyway" HE IS
"doesnt stand a chance against taylor in his own backyard" HE DID
"taylor was a shot fighter anyway" HE WASNT
"wont have enough to beat dirrell" HE DID
"dirrells a manufactured champ anyway" HE ISNT
getting really bored of having to defend carl froch on this forum considering the fact i think the guys a standout prick outside of the ring

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
Well, until he changes his attitude and stops telling us how hard he hits, how quick he is and how good his chin is and all the other lies and bullshiit like how Calzaghe avoided him, im not going to like him and neither will anyone else.
Maybe if he had kept his gob shut we would accept him as a messy fighter whos done ok in his last few fights but after listening to all his self promoting crap then to watch him struggle against 2 completely untested fighters and get dropped by an ex middle weight and win that one by the skin of his teeth, its just annoying.
Im not sure that Kessler is the fighter he was, I think hes had that arrogance and hunger robbed from him by Calzaghe but im enjoying the fact that mother nature is even trying to make it difficult for Carl now;D
I havent seen or heard any reports on Kesslers training or sparring, I did read that Kessler said he left his sparring too late in the Ward camp, didnt have enough?? Who knows? He should have still delt with Ward!

saw a bit on hattontv with him and his trainer
says training is going well, fitter than he has even been, etc etc etc
Also going on about how his actually more english than danish due to his mum being english

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
He could always find a good boat to travel over, or hire a corrupted russian crew to drive him within a few hours with a submarine, or hire somebody for the flying tandem velohttp://www.ehbpc.org/wp-content/uplo...lying-bike.jpg
On a more serious note, there are tons of decent ferry going there and while he's stuck in England, he can always train till he decide to take an aternative way (tunnel via luxury bus or via some boat), I don't see that being a factor for the fight result.

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
Kesslers promoter has just announced that Froch will be flown in by Helicopter in good time :cool:
"We will make sure the Cobra gets to Herning in good time to fight Mikkel,” Kessler´s promoter Kalle Sauerland said. “The Volcano cannot serve as an excuse for Froch not to show up. Nothing can prevent the biggest boxing fight in Danish history from happening. We are already looking into different ways of transportation. Should need be, we will fly Froch in by helicopter for Mikkel to knock him out. He can then take the boat back home – once Mikkel is done with him, I doubt he will be allowed on a normal plane anyway.”
Saulerland: We will fly Froch in by Helicopter

I don't get it neither. A year or so ago i could maybe understand the hate. He was seen as cocky and arrogant without ever really backing it up. Since then, he's spoken better, been more down to earth and has defeated Pascal, Dirrell and Taylor in his own back yard. The Pascal and the Taylor fights were very entertaining aswell.
Now he's going to Denmark to fight Kessler. On a side note, if he beats Kessler, does he become p4p worthy?

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
How would beating someone coming off a loss make you p4p worthy?
-
Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
Acording to this, Froch refuses to drive or sail and Denmark is nowhere near opening there aair space again.
I reckon Froch will pull out because hes not comfortable with the rush job hes been left with to get over there and he wont have any fans there either.
There is a video I found after someone mentioned hatton tv where hennesey and Froch are going on about how great the town of Herning is and it has a couple of bars, really trying to entice people over;D
Hes desperate to have support there!
Super Six bout in jeopardy from flight restrictions

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
If Froch afraid of driving or something? Certainly if he left today he'd be there tomorrow with tons wed-fri to get his last minute training in. There is no reason for him to postpone.

I'm told that European airlines have only allowed him and other fake European celebs(we'll even give you guys Madona) to fly to test it out so if the test flights fail no one will really care. They're the first line of defense, like the marines, Sheep. Be thankful.

Re: Froch stuck in England by Volcanic ash
Fresh from Showtime Boxing's Facebook page-
Carl Froch will be flown into either North Germany or Denmark with a private jet on Tuesday afternoon. “We are delighted to have things sorted out and bring the Cobra to Herning for his Super Six showdown with Mikkel Kessler,” said Kalle Sauerland. “He will manage to defy one volcano by hiring a private jet, but he will be in trouble when another volcano – the Viking Volcano – erupts in the ring on Saturday night.”
