Iv been to Copenhagen before, its a very nice place. SirTomJones 01-13-2010, 06:32 PM I think Froch could take this as lon as he roughs Mikkel up. The ref may be **** hot seeing if it is in Denmark so he better becareful of point reductions. Slugger_P4P 01-13-2010, 06:41 PM how much would flights, accomodation and fight tickets cost roughly? SirTomJones 01-13-2010, 07:40 PM how much would flights, accomodation and fight tickets cost roughly? How long you looking to stay in Denmark. Flying from Cardiff like i would be too i assume? Slugger_P4P 01-14-2010, 03:35 PM How long you looking to stay in Denmark. Flying from Cardiff like i would be too i assume? not too long mate..maybe 2 nights..yep from cardiff Clegg 01-14-2010, 09:26 PM I'd go if I wasn't a bum :D Sparked_1985 01-15-2010, 05:25 AM Isn't Denmark insanely expensive? I'd love to go,but I want to go to go travelling around Thailand more. I think people in these Scandanavian countries specifically Sweden must have an average wage of about £30,000. My sister went and you could help yourself to a bottle of water for £5. I'm guessing even over two days your wallet will take a hammering.

I'm guessing even over two days your wallet will take a hammering. ye i have family in denmark and its a hugely expensive country my cousin was over there for new year and he spent a bomb and thats excluding accomodation as he stayed with relatives doesnt matter to me anyway because i think froch is getting sparked and im not a fan of him anyway,but if you are up for going,better be ready to spend some money Blairhoyle792 01-15-2010, 08:08 AM a couple mates asked me if I wanted to go, but Denmark is expensive, and being married to a Norwegian I'm back and forward to Norway twice a year so I decided against it. One draw back though it hasn't been decided if the fight will take place at the MCH Messecenter in Herning which only holds a few thousand or at the Parken Stadium in Copenhagen which holds 30,000. I suppose it depends on the interest of the fight, especially from visiting fans. I'm saving up to go to Haye-Ruiz in London. BritishBoxing92 01-15-2010, 11:35 AM Kesslers gonna get wasted...gonna be just like a replay of kessler vs ward....im just lookin forward to watchin froch vs abraham or ward ;) now that would be a good fight The_Demon 01-15-2010, 11:52 AM Kesslers gonna get wasted...gonna be just like a replay of kessler vs ward....im just lookin forward to watchin froch vs abraham or ward ;) now that would be a good fight haha you can dream mate it will be a replay of kessler vs andrade froch has a lot more in common wih andrade than he does with ward,they are two completely different styles hate to say it,but froch is going too lose,and lose badly BritishBoxing92 01-15-2010, 11:55 AM haha you can dream mate it will be a replay of kessler vs andrade froch has a lot more in common wih andrade than he does with ward,they are two completely different styles hate to say it,but froch is going too lose,and lose badly nah....i want froch to win then get wasted by abraham. also haye to waste ruiz The_Demon 01-15-2010, 12:02 PM nah....i want froch to win then get wasted by abraham. also haye to waste ruiz yes thats wot im talking about! haye will waste ruiz,hes a beast abraham should KO froch,his power is scary BritishBoxing92 01-15-2010, 12:06 PM yes thats wot im talking about! haye will waste ruiz,hes a beast abraham should KO froch,his power is scary yeah yeah ;) Abraham KOd jermain taylor which i loved since when taylor fought hopkins that fight was a robbery...anyways im lookin forward to watching Bernard Hopkins vs Roy Jones Jr on 17th april 2010 ;) The_Demon 01-15-2010, 12:17 PM yeah yeah ;) Abraham KOd jermain taylor which i loved since when taylor fought hopkins that fight was a robbery...anyways im lookin forward to watching Bernard Hopkins vs Roy Jones Jr on 17th april 2010 ;) the fights not signed is it?

SirTomJones 01-15-2010, 07:21 PM If I do end up going look out for a Welsh flag. I like Froch but will be rooting for Kessler. Shame Denmark is very expensive. Junito-Rulez 01-15-2010, 07:26 PM LMAO, i asked a brit in the train if he knew a lil bit about boxing. We talked about Khan, Hatton but when i asked him if he knew Carl Froch, he asked me three times " Carl WHO?" Blairhoyle792 01-15-2010, 08:41 PM Unfortunatelty Haye Ruiz is looking likely to land in Manchester. seriously? the O2 was rumoured to be the venue of choice. will be pissed off if this is the case as I have work in London and was hoping to kill two birds with one stone. The_Demon 01-15-2010, 08:47 PM seriously? the O2 was rumoured to be the venue of choice. will be pissed off if this is the case as I have work in London and was hoping to kill two birds with one stone. ye seems like manchester is likely not sure why the o2 seemed like the perfect venue Blairhoyle792 01-15-2010, 09:33 PM ye seems like manchester is likely not sure why the o2 seemed like the perfect venue I take it will be the MEN then? Blairhoyle792 01-15-2010, 09:40 PM World champion Carl Froch is battling to stage the next defence of his title in Copenhagen, rather than the smaller Danish city of Herning. Nottingham fighter Froch is due to defend his WBC super-middleweight title against Mikkel Kessler on 17 April. The final venue is yet to be confirmed, but Froch is keen to fight Denmark's Kessler actually in the Danish capital. "That's where it needs to be," Froch told BBC Nottingham. "I'm battling the politics behind closed doors." Herning is 150 miles away to the east of Copenhagen. And Froch admits: "For the Danes it's easy to get to, but for the Brits and for the Cobra fans it's going to be really difficult, so they'll probably stay and watch it at home." 606: DEBATE Will Froch be too good for Kessler? Froch retained his world title against Andre Dirrell at the Nottingham Arena in October 2009, his first fight in the new "Super Six" tournament. But Kessler was beaten by Andre Ward the following month after a unanimous technical decision in California, and therefore lost his WBA belt. It would not be the first time that Froch defends his title outside of the UK. He went to the United States to beat Jermain Taylor in a dramatic final round knock-out in Connecticut in April 2009.

Clegg 01-16-2010, 05:11 AM Not much cash to spare at the moment. I'm thinking of going to the Sexton-Williams card because there's a lot of decent fighters on show that night. Would like to go to Froch-Kessler, gonna wait and see how much it'll cost before deciding. The Surgeon 01-16-2010, 05:18 AM Not much cash to spare at the moment.

Yeah its a pretty good card, i Hope Danny smashes em too ****in pieces! :boxing: Here am i right in thinking Denmarks like Holland in that u can smoke weed and stuff? The Monk 01-16-2010, 06:43 AM Tried to persuade my mates but to no avail. Would be a great piss up I reckon and if Carl got the KO I think I would go absolutely mental. Internet it is though. Clegg 01-16-2010, 07:22 AM I dunno Surge, I don't think so but maybe, I don't know much about the country. Just did some searching around and airline tickets are pretty cheap, I only checked one place but they have it as £30 to fly there and £50 to fly back. http://www.norwegian.com/en/flight/select-flight/London-Copenhagen?TripType=2&D_Day=16&D_Month=201004&R_Day=18&R_Month=201004&AdultCount=1&ChildCount=0&InfantCount=0 Roger Mellie 01-16-2010, 07:32 AM Yeah its a pretty good card, i Hope Danny smashes em too ****in pieces! :boxing: Here am i right in thinking Denmarks like Holland in that u can smoke weed and stuff? I heard that too. My dad used to go there quite a lot for work and said that Copenhagen was the same sort of thing as Amsterdam,but a lot less hectic. That was about 20 years ago though!

Think i've changed my mind now after hearing how bloody expensive Denmark is plus if Khan vs Maidana ends up happening on the same night, i'll just pay for both PPV's and get the beers in I think.

AndyShitHot 01-20-2010, 05:17 PM It would really suck if the fights were on the same night and timed so that we had to miss at least one of them. Yeah it would but I have a feeling that Showtime might do Froch vs Kessler/Ward vs Bika/Green the same way they did Abraham vs Taylor/Froch vs Dirrell. As in they would pre-record Froch-Kessler so on Primetime they would show that live and then just have a few hours before the Ward fight finishes that card off. Then hopefully that would all finish before the Khan-Maidana card even kicks off, I doubt it but would be one hell of a night of boxing although it would cost us about £27 for the 2 PPV's.
