FROCH v TAYLOR - 25/4/09 - ITV1 Sunday replay!

[ross]

an American fighter will usually have to travel to make his big fights happen, just not out of the country. They might have to go from Arkansas to New York or Atlantic City, or even Las Vegas. It's pretty normal for a guy to travel 1000 to 2000 km to make a big fight happen and go into an opponents home city. This would be the similar to an English boxer traveling to Germany.

No it wouldnt, going from Arkansas to New York would be similar to going from Manchester to London as its still in the same country, same nationality, they arent having to even deal with a different language

Deep down you just know Taylor for all his talent doesnt have the heart for the business and Froch is the BUSINESS .

No way Cobra loses this from the 1st round Taylor is gonna know that Froch's the boss and gets stalked to defeat long before Taylor gets anything on .
Taylor's has not knocked anyone out in a long while and has very questionable stamina , granted he did go the distance with Pavlik but I really7 feel this is Froch's coming out fight where he announces himself as a big player

Taylor stopped before 8 , tell them Big Dick sent you .

A little different than Manchester to London, more like Cardiff to London in the sense that culturally, the two places are apples and oranges.

Is anyone here actually attending this fight?

A little different than Manchester to London, more like Cardiff to London in the sense that culturally, the two places are apples and oranges.

Only in that theres a bit more distance, its still in the same country though whereas Cardiff isnt, there is a bit of a culture divide between the Northerners and southerners.

The point im getting at is no matter how far an American fighter travels, as long as hes fighting on American soil the audience will be looking at a fellow American so will not be as hostile.

Cardiff to London I reckon would be more like Canada to America, on the same piece of land but different countries that actually dont like each other.
