I've been gone for a few weeks - What's the latest word on boxing?

[Rantcatrat]

Gentlemen? I picked up a couple things from boxing scene, but what has happened while I've been away?

I read somewhere that Doniare versus Nishioka and Rios versus Alvarado are set for the the same card? Geez. Sounds like it may be worth a trip to Los Angeles.

Froch signed to fight anyone? Bute taking on the Black Russian's conqueror, Grachev? What else is happening? Any new updates? Fights cancelled or announced?

[Tam Seddon]

No word on Froch, he was suppose to fight Oosthuzien but Oosthuzien didn't want to fight him.

Kessler priced himself out, great shame. So I have no clue who Froch Is going to fight.

Not a whole lot shakin' in August, Rant-cat.

The next "major" fight is not until Sept. 8 = Andre Ward vs. Chad Dawson, but that figures to be a not worth watching stinker, I just can't stomach SOG.

For the most part i'm just waiting to see Martinez vs. Chavez Jr. on Sept 15th, that should be a fucking barnburner. (i'm still amazed that team Chavez had the cojones to take this fight)

welcome back bro, cheers

P.S. let's just hope Jr. doesn't test positive for PEDs and the fight gets canceled.

Just noticed on Sept 8th:
At Moscow (HBO): Vitali Klitschko vs. Manuel Charr, 12 rounds, for Klitschko's WBC heavyweight title
(Showtime): Randall Bailey vs. Devon Alexander, 12 rounds, for Bailey's IBF welterweight title

Abraham is facing Stieglitz sometime in the near future, right?

Yup, AA facing Stieglitz for his WBO SMW trinket, on August 25th. It might be worth a look if I can find a stream for the Saturday afternoon fight here in the States. Some of the Brits and the other "foreigners" on the forum might be interested in this one, as well.

At Berlin, Germany: Robert Stieglitz vs. Arthur Abraham, 12 rounds, for Stieglitz's WBO super middleweight title.
