Froch: I'll Quit The Super Six if the Abraham fight is in Germany

[Bomp]

If this is correct then he has to fight in England if not then if where the most money is, but come on as if Froch will quit, where the fuck would he go??

Fight Bute in Canada? What is the point in that there is to much reward for to Froch to quit, I think if there is no contract then this will end up in Germany as Abraham creates more money in Germany and lets have it right Fat Mick is a waste of space.

Exactly, he's got nowhere else to go if he leaves. Doubt Bute would got to Nottingham.

[DaxxKahn]

...Always gotta be one in the crowd...The tourney is set up fairly so everyone gets a HT advantage.....Right now he is still licking his wounds from his first loss that is expected he will change his mind i am sure...

He is an ass but he is also a true fighter at heart

[Mar]

He'll quit ??!!! Lol !!! Take your overrated ass on then, don't even bother to stop and close the door on your way out. If the fight was in froch's own living room abraham would beat his ass anyway. I don't know about overseas but here in america nobody will miss him, most didn't even know he was in the tourny anyway. I'll quit...lol !!!! This guy is starting to sound like one of my kids....i'm sick i don't wanna fight, it's not where i want it i don't wanna fight. My car is scratched i don't wanna fight, I could've taken him out, i shoulda, coulda, woulda, whaaa whaaaaa. Give me a freakin break. You sure didn't mind taking advantage of a green direll in england in a fight most think he lost anyway. I'm growing tired of this guy already

[Master]

AA brings the crowd and the money but Froch will get screwed in Germany.

Did you catch the last Showtime fight camp? Where his car was getting vandalized and he said it must be Calzaghe fans ha ha ha...I know he was kidding but it was actually funny...

Froch comes off as a tool on TV but IMO he is probably a decent guy the kind you would call to hang with watch football etc...I really don't think he is as arrogant as they make him out to be,...Though at press confrences I have been to with him he is a tool....But after the conference to talk with him he is a gentleman hard guy to figure out

[Kirkland Laing]

Sounds like he's not taking defeat too well. He can't quit, he's got a contract with Showtime. If he does quit he'll have to pay them back what he made for his first two SS fights and possibly a bit more. And then what's going to happen? Bute isn't going to come to Nottingham even if they could make that fight (highly unlikely, don't think HBO want their boy fighting a SS reject) so Froch would be fighting away from home anyway. And if he couldn't fight Bute he'll have to fight some nontitle fights until the SS is over and he isn't getting any younger. Plus the post-bandwagon Froch crowd to see him fight B level guys like Bika isn't going to pay much and will make nothing from TV. So he's stuck with the SS.

The only ray of sunshine I heard was on Five Live in the car this afternoon, I just switched the radio on and somebody was saying something like "the word in Demark is that Sauerland will agree to a neutral venue to keep Froch in the tournament" but that was the end of the segment. Did anybody hear the full thing?

Sauerland have the financial muscle and they have the pull with Showtime compared to Fat Mick. They've got two guys in the tournament and a stable full of top prospects while FM has last legs Froch and nothing else. If they do go to a neutral venue it means some crappy American casino ballroom like Froch-Taylor. Compare that with 20 000 Germans at the O2 Berlin and no promoter is going to give that up so I just can't see a neutral venue when Showtime have Froch by the balls via his contract.

I was briefly liking Froch after Saturday, but thankfully he's reverted to being the giant knob he is. Thanks Carl. You prick.

I know. It annoys me how he's been willing to fight in other guys backyards. It annoys me how 3 of his last 4 fights have been Fight of the Year candidates. It annoys me how his last 4 opponents have been top quality. I wish he'd fuck off. Boxing doesn't need this.

[Nameless]

Ahh the attempt to put pressure when things aren't going your way. Good luck Carl.

I don't blame him. Why should it be in Germany?

They should prepare a neutral venue if both fighters can't agree on the location. Every fight has gone the home fighters way and Froch knows he's out if anything goes wrong. In Germany he will be docked points, especially if he tries to make it a rough fight. Anywhere borderline low and AA will be holding his belly and warnings will be dished out. Fighting there will be a risk for Froch and going on that iffy scorecard against Kessler (117-111) I don't blame Froch for fearing the worst.

I suppose Nottingham was a fair venue for Andre Dirrell, Carl Froch wasn't treated unfairly in Denmark at all. And i don't think those scorecards, were that wide personally.

I agree that there should be a neutral venue..

but, i disagree that 117-111 is iffy, just because it was a fight with a lot of close rounds.. you give two of the close rounds that that judge gave Kessler, to Froch, you have a 115-113 fight.. Froch didn't do much the entire fight, besides landing an eye-catching shot maybe 3 times throughout the fight.. Kessler pushed the fight, and if there were no major blows in the round, or anyone getting hurt, then he will get the round because he's making the fight a fight.

Careful. Common sense is frowned upon in these parts.

[mickel]

it sounds as though he has no desire to get in the ring with abraham....?

Exactly - What I got from just the title of this thread was "Waaa waaa waaa! Bitch Bitch Bitch!"

Froch is easily one of the most unlikable fighters in boxing in my eyes. Oh you want it back in Nottingham because you felt like you got robbed in Denmark? (Like Direll was robbed in Nottingham?) When clearly you wern't robbed, you're just a disillusioned tool?

When did you become top dog of the sport to start making such demands...heck when did you become the top dog of the super middleweight division??

Yepp, go home Carl and sulk in the corner you twat
