Froch-Abraham postponed

[Bomp]

I was informed that the back injury is a smoke screen , and that in fact Froch has badly broke his nose.
The estimated repair work will run into millions , the scaffolding cost alone comes to over 1 million pounds.

Could be a delaying tactic as no one really knows wtf is goin on with Ward-Dirrell and the super six tournament in general. Maybe they think they can secure a WBC shot opn home soil if the super six is torn up?

It really is a mess now, Ward should never have been allowed to sign for 3 home fights, how the other promoters missed that is beyond a joke. Then again if as mooted that these next two fights are promoted to be straight semis then perhaps Ward can then feel aggrieved that being the only guy on 100% he has to go away for the knockout stages.

Bet that's much nearer the truth than a dodgy back.

There's no point in Abraham-Froch even fighting with no title on the line and no super-six incentive. Especially no point of fighting in Monaco in front of a couple of thousand punters.

I really wanted to see this fight.

Something fishy here? Is this event falling by the waist side?

Just looking at the Cobra's twitter and he only reported two days ago he just has outrageous fitness reports from the lab? Also asking everyone if there looking forward to the fight this doesnt sound like a guy who has had tests and been told to rest up only two days later? Find it odd for such a big fight from him tweeting this on saturday night to fat Mick announcing he is injured this morning? Surely if he got injured sunday they would take secnd opinions or maybe not even get the results back less than 24 hours later?

maybe I am looking into it to much but to me seems very strange.

Now like I said when Froch first said he was injured I thought It was very fishy as the Twitter post mentioned nothing and he was actually training well, now I have put my columbo camel jacket on and had a little think.

Now what is going on right now when the Froch v AA fight was suppose to happen originally oh yes that is right his trainer McCracken is in India with the English Boxing team.
