2.30... that is not so bad, but I think i am just about done now... I will see if I can survive untill then I still have some southern comfort.... I think this fight will be worth watching

You can cross the border to the ununited slave of America.

i wish i could reaaaaalllllllllllly do, i stupid bar told me they were showing the fight i rang back an hour later just to check, as i wanted no room for error, and they said yes we are showing the pacquiao vs marquez fight at 6, aaaggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Both fighters look great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k45wVWgNBsk

I'm torn between getting up/staying up to watch it, and just going to bed and watching tomorrow. Now that I don't have sky though, if I don't watch fights at the time i usually can't be bothered to watch once I know the result.

I'm reckoning Froch takes it narrowly, 114-111, with Ward getting knocked down.

you are not the famous jakey g are you?

I'm watching a feed from Sky Sports 1, it looks like they're going to show Kell Brook vs. Luis Galarza in a few minutes, but not on Showtime. Brook and Galarza both in the ring.

The action starts on Showtime here in the States @ 9:00 PM ET tonight, or @ around 2:00 AM Sunday in the UK/Europe.

-Dec. 17
At Atlantic City, N.J. (Showtime): Super Six World Boxing Classic final, Andre Ward vs. Carl Froch, WBA/WBC super middleweight unification.

Here we go with Kell Brook vs. Luis Galarza (on Sky Sports)

Brook dominating

He's got a good jab brook, he should stop him soon.

Can I have a PM too please?;D

Brook needs to fight a named fighter at 147 and get properly tested. He's shown he can beat cannon fodder, he needs to move on now.

The usual etiquette is to post it in one of the hidden forums. This way we can use the fight thread itself to talk about the boxing.

Brook wins by 5th round stoppage, nice victory, but it was a bit of a mismatch.

Brook said after the fight...

"glad I goh it outway"

wise words indeed ;D;D;D

It just means his missus doesn't have him watching Strictly Come Dancing and going for a relaxing sleep at 10pm!

Like the rest of us Saddo just wants to see Froch get knocked out

looking forward to this one and keeping the spammers at bay ;)

There are boxers and there are fighters. There are a select few elite in the hurt game who can effortlessly combine both. Then amongst these few there are those who touch greatness, who can mix it up and evolve mid contest. These warriors transcend the sport, their exploits bleed onto the front page, their fearlessness allows them to dismantle the emerging careers of athletes of great promise and expose those whose excellence has been prematurely announced. They are legends the benchmark against whom future boxers are measured. Carl Froch has the chance to join the select few, the men who are spoken of in hushed tones of awe. That chance is in his lethal hands, the well honed chiselled, spiteful tools of his noble trade. Can the Cobra strike and snatch the mantle of greatness from the hallowed hall of British super Middleweights who punched and fought their way onto the world’s stage, burning the image of their greatness onto the consciousness of pugilistic punters across the globe? Tonight we will find out.

Since I was 15 and I'm 21 now! I reckon 4,000 isn't too sad compared to others haha. ;)

I really hope Froch can do this, it's going to be a very close fight either way IMO. Would love nothing more than Froch to stop him late, Taylor style ;D
