    on some random ppv channel on Sky.

    Primetime. £12.95.

    I was wondering if it would be available on ****** media. Out on Saturday anyway, I'm gutted.

      Dirrell made himself look like a right twat there. He looks a bit overawed by the occasion,and I can see him gassing early with all that nervous energy. I sincerely hope Froch sparks the gobby prick out clean.

        These Yanks act all bad ass! when it comes to press conference but come fight night they are either......

        Complaining about their accommodation & running to the ring like a lunatic because they cant handle occasion (Barrett)

        Or they are acting like Dirrell who seems to be trying to convince himself! he is not scared rather than convince Froch.

        Can you remember how pensive Mayweather looked in his ring walk with Hatton and how tight he was for the first couple of rounds?


        Neither of the aforementioned have natural confidence in themselves imo.

            Dirrell needs someone to take the sting out of him a bit, to help him relax.

            I'm sorry but Gary Shaw is an absolute twat, he f.ucks over his own fighters by being such an idiot with his ****** antics and you can bet he winds his guy up too. He didn't help at all.

                It's available online too. I know it ain't perfect, but two tremendous match-ups for that price? I'm in.

                Regarding Dirrell's behaviour, the thing is.....do you really think he is scared or worried about Froch? I can imagine him being nervous about say, Abraham's power, or Kessler's all round game, but it's not like Froch's performance against Taylor (and even Pascal, I'd say) would make Dirrell **** his pants. I would think that if Dirrell had the option of picking one fighter to fight in the Super Six, he'd pick Froch. I can see him licking his lips at the prospect of teeing off on Carl.

                If he is nervous, it is of the enormity of being in a big fight like this for the first time. But I genuinely don't think Dirrell is worried about sharing a ring with Froch.

                  Yeah Gary Shaw gives it large more than his fighters.

                    I wouldn't make any assumptions based on a press conference. I do think Dirrell will eventually "fold" based on his inexperience but we will see.

                      I do think most boxers get scared really. Scared of losing.

                      Dirrell is out of his comfort zone and he has to make it seem like it's not affecting him as Froch will pick that up straight away. But he went the wrong way about it, imo. Some people are good talkers, I don't think he is, sounded jittery. Tried too hard.
