    Belts are clearly important for younger fighters and "no fans" fighters though.
    yeah but imagine trying to explain it to someone not in the know

    froch is the best fighter in britain, but why isnt he world champ?
    I don't see what the fuss is all about anyway , Froch is retired isn't he? He was mandated to fight the Super Champion , who even after 2 years out of the ring offered to come to Froch's home country only for Froch to say " I want it in my back yard!"
    he refused to fight Degale , he didn't want to fight GGG, there's no interest in Kessler3, he wanted to fight a guy who has never fought at SMW (his fights with Vera were catchweight bullshit) and when that guy got beat, he had no options.
    so what are they to do? they could say "ok Carl , we're gonna give you a shiny new belt called the Froch World Title , and you can fight whatever cabbage you want to fight!"
    honest man, im not sure that theres any fact in any of that post so i cant be arsed replying
    Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend

    The WBA are probably planning another belt maybe - The former champion unified Super World Belt ?
    That way we can have 8 WBA champions per division , sanctioning fee genius.

    Felix Strurm!

    Froch should really try and make the fight with Ward who should accept the fight in Nottingham, it is only a few miles up the road from Wembley.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
