They both get a "reception" when they're announced, just that Reid's is a chorus of boos and Froch is a deafening roar. Froch says a quick word to Reid as they touch gloves.
Round 1:
Reid immediately looks to leap in past Froch's long punches, getting into a clinch, then a left hook as he comes out of there. Froch being fairly cagey wih long jabs not landing, then Reid charging in quickly again, almost running in. Good hard jab from Reid, then a body shot within the clinch. He's tying Froch up, and throwing annoyning little digs. Reid gets in again. Froch popping out the jab, but Reid wont let himself get caugh. Another bit of a wrestle, and Reid puts in to the body. Froch with a short hook in the clinch. Junior Witter looking a little bored at ringside. Froch with a nice left hook.
I think Reid did the better work in that one, spoiling a lot on the inside.
