    Well Froch has already refuted it in an article on here. He repeated around 15 times that hes ready and willing to defend his title against Taylor. Seems pretty clear.

    I havent seen any sources that suggest Hopkins turned down Kessler. But Hopkins has made it clear that he wont fight him. So again, its pretty clear.

      This one is obvious bull****.

      Froch can't fight till April because of bruised ribs and a perforated eardrum - that's just silly.

        It's also silly that we should believe practically anything that comes out of Marley's mouth. Especially due to the fact he is Kessler's american agent.

        WBC super middleweight champion Carl “The Cobra” Froch has directed his venom at Jermain Taylor and his team after a boxing website suggested that Froch was sidelined until June with a rib injury. Froch believes it’s just another in a long line of tactics by Taylor and his promoter Lou DiBella to avoid facing Froch. “Some guy from a site I’d never heard about before has written that I’m injured until June and won’t be able to defend my title until then," fumed Froch. "This [Michael] Marley guy said that there’s nothing wrong with my ‘flapping jaws’ but that I have a rib injury. In my opinion the only people flapping are Taylor and his team by trying to find another way to duck out of the fight.

        "This Marley character needs to check his facts before writing a story. Maybe he’s only new to the game or something but he needs to start learning quickly. Where did he get this nonsense from about me being sidelined until June? It’s complete BS and if he’d bothered to call my promoter Mick Hennessy he’d know that I've no injury worries now and I’m ready, willing and able to defend my title against Taylor.”
        Here's a quote saying that Marley is lying and he's full of ****!!

        Clear based off what? That the offer was made? What offer? FAO DIRK, MARLEY WORKS FOR KESSLER'S TEAM. He promotes him. What better way to promote your fighter then saying they are ducking someone?

        I don't think Froch backed out of a fight with Taylor at all, he's been wanting it for a long time, but look at the hypocriscy here that will take place between this thread and the other.

          First time I heard of Marley - he does appear a bull**** artist.

          Regarding Hopkins, I don't even $4 million dollars is a brilliant offer to begin with. Even if it was somehow true.

            This is Marley's response to Froch's press release earlier, and the first mention of a 3/28 Showtime date that was rejected by Froch's team.

            I expect Froch's response soon though; he doesn't keep his opinions to himself.

              yeah, Im sure da Euroz will duhfend Froch lolz.


              Im just waiting for the Moldovans to come and back Froch up

              Some Americans are completely clueless

              If anything you should be saying Brits. I dont see how this exactly relates to Latvians, Bulgarians, Croatians etc

              Im sure if i started ridiculing one of Americas overhyped fighters that all Canadians would come to their defence

                Based on Hopkins saying he wont fight Kessler.......

                I dont even know who this Marley guy is. I havent read his article either so im not basing my view from it. Im basing it on what Hopkins himself has said.

                    Yeah Americans can be clueless on certain things, Marley's an american. I'd said euros because of Kessler fans too. To generalize it. That and I like the word Euros, even if it's wrong.

                    I'm just saying, watch the hypocrisy that would normally occure. Of course, I'll fully accknowledge other stuff going for Americans that is BS(IE: Thinking Roy Jones could beat Joe Calzaghe :lol1), but I'm pointing out the BS here.

                      Yeah, but that isn't "he's ducking him". You said, at least this is what I read from your post, that it's clear that Hopkins turned down 4 million? How is that clear, when Marley has been proven to lie? There isn't even proof that there was an offer.
