David Haye v Jean Marc-Mormeck RBR - World Crusierweight Titles

[ICB]

I hope Reid wins but Froch will probably take Reid to the cleaners.

[superheavyrhun]

Froch should win comfortably, but the guy is becoming the Junior Witter of 168, what his obession with Calzaghe similar to the one Witter has with Hatton?

Froch says he is going to do a number on Reid something Joe couldnt do HAHAHAHAH!! Carl that was nearly ten years ago, but Froch actully thinks Calzaghe is scared of him, the guy is a grade A wanker.

He is 30 years old and fighting Robin Reid for peanuts for the British Title, Calzaghe is one of HBO's main boys and top 5 p4p going on to fight big names for millions of pounds. I wish someone would shut Froch the F*** up, he needs to start showing some F****** repsect and also should have a word with his promotional team to why he is still messing about with the British title at 30 years old if he is the elitest boxer he believes he is?

One word mate: Politics. Froch has stuck with his team, and with Warren's stranglehold on British boxing it has put him at a significant disadvantage, which has left him with opponents that aren't recognised and him struggling to drag himself up the rankings. I'm sure they've tried to get an eliminator sorted, but for now Reid will keep the accountants from the door and him in ink to put rubbish fake advertising tattoos on his chest.

I still believe that Froch's next fight if he wins will be for a world title after Calzaghe vacates all three belts which will really mix things up at SMW.

I think it possibly will be mate, i agree politics. But its just the way he runs his mouth it pisses me off, and he backs it up with bullshit like " im going to do a number on Reid that Calzaghe couldnt do"

WTF?? You would think the Reid Calzaghe fight took place about 6 months ago not getting on for 9 years!!

Im more intrigued than excited by this fight, I know alot of younger posters here like Froch because of his arrogant attitude and reckless style, they also feel that Robin Reid will be treated like some fragile rag doll because of the Lacy fight, in fact the predictions from the same posters are running along the same lines.

I can see a russty Froch being btaken the distance by a world experienced fighter, Reid will not be a walkover, he has pride and wont want to lose face to Froch, his previous losses have all been to fighters who have been world champions, 2 were contraversial 2 were because he fought like he didnt want to be there and only Reid knows what happened in the Lacy fight but the first knockdown in that fight and the first of his career came from an ilegal punch, a full blooded right hook to the side of Robs jaw while he was facing the ref away from Lacy, recieving instructions, like I said Reid had never been down before so was obviously hurt and just couldnt get back in to it, although it went 3 more rounds after the first knockdown.

Carl doesnt pressure like Lacy did and Reid will not be like a startled rabbit like all Frchs stoppage victims who had no clue how to fight, Rob knows all the tricks, Froch aint dealt with em yet and im still sceptical about how much Carl has been able to train or how hard hes been pushing himself because of the knee surgery and the quality of his sparring if any.

Im pretty sure all Carl and Rob McCrackens hyping of Reid is just to hype the fight rather than they actualy see him as a threat, they like the less informed here see the Lacy fight and are banking on Carls power, well if Carl aint been putting the work in or prepared for a hard battle then he is going to fall flat on his face

[smashup]

Ross did Carl bully you at school,whip your ass in the ring (sparring) or even in a fight or something..?
Why do you disslike him so much fella?
Must be some deep routed bitterness within you son.
Froch is A UK fighter so get behind him for f*cks sake.
































Or are you a Reid family member

[Kirkland Laing]

I wish someone would shut Froch the fuck up, he needs to start showing some fucking repsect and also should have a word with his promotional team to why he is still messing about with the British title at 30 years old if he is the elitest boxer he believes he is?

Because he's waiting till Calzaghe moves up to light-heavy before he moves up to world class.

well said mate

so what if he's arrogant.....who cares. he's good, he's exciting and he knocks fwockers out in style.

[littlebif]

i expect Froch will be to fast for reid but iam hoping that he gets caught and gets ko'ed.I recon though if Froch wins we are gonna hear how good he is and hes the best fight at 168 .He needs to step up into world class instead of fighting fighters that arnt in the top 10 in the world

[El Gamo]

Froch should beat Reid,but I'm not too sure if he can stop him. Either way,I don't see what this fight will prove. He would have been better served fighting one of the other numerous top contenders in what is increasinly becoming one of boxings premier divisions.

How long 'til the fight gets underway?

Getting a little hungry and want to know how much time I have to go grab something to eat.
Thanks.

[ross]

Smash Carl is a joke, to say hes british is even more of a joke, if someone were to ask me who some good british boxers were I wouldnt bring him up because he aint good, win or lose tonight he hasnt proved hes good.

In 6 years and in his 30's this is the closest hes got to fighting world class and the general concessus feeling is that the fight is a foregone conclusion, well that says it all, he hasnt even opened the garden gate to walk up the path let alone knocking on the door of world class

Theres probably some big scary dog in the garden, probably Reid

So excited about this....

Carl Croch is going to face plant Porno Boy!

Ok, so the previews have just started here on sky, and both of the guys are talking the talk, with Froch throwing his usual bigmouth statements out there, and Reid saying all the right things too. Ringwalks are just around the corner.
