    The fight being in Finland is Froch's own doing. That said the whole Hennessey/Primetime TV set-up is what's harming Froch's career. Primetime don't have the clout to back this fight like Sky does. Signing with Primetime was a pivotal point in Froch's career, I know Sky didn't want to pick him up at the time but he should've gone down the free to air route with ITV. At least then people other than us would know who he is.

    What time is the fight going to be? I'm wondering because I might need to set my alarm.

    There is only one man harming Frochs career that is fat Mick.

    I look for Abraham to do something shocking in this fight. Like fuck it up again like his last fight. Just have this feeling that Froch will win.

    you wont need to set your alarm cuz its from Europe.

    Ive just bought this via the remote. There was a live showing at 7.15pm and a live showing at 10.30pm?! Why do they make it complicated. There is only 1 fight so no need for multiple choices of live times. I got the 7.15 viewing anyway.

    Anyone know if Ward vs Bika is part of it or is that extra? Dont fancy staying up til 3 then realising I have to pay another £15

    Primetime just read out my email I aksed if anyone on the panel could forsee any surprises. It was the 1st email about the fight they read but the presenter didnt read it word for word so it came out wrong.

    Can anyone explain how Ward is on 6 points? I was of the belief that 2 points for a decision win and 3 for a KO. If Carl wins tonight thats two points wins so he will be on 4 points. So shouldnt Ward also be on 4 seemings as he has only had 2 points wins?

    They said if Arthur gets a KO he will get another 3 and be tied for 1st place. Are they assuming Ward would have beaten Dirrell on points. How else can he have 6 points?

    I woke up at 6am anyway just to make sure, but I'm knackered. And for the record I am British and yes I do have a good taste in boxers.

    I think Ward was awarded the 2 points when Dirrell pulled out, kind of like a default win.

    Everyone gives a monkey now, Froch has just got that little bit more fashionable.

    One more win and he's in the final!
