Comments Thread For: Froch vs Kessler in Trouble? Carl Rejects Fight Venue

I hope Froch gets his way. Me and a few friends were planning on going to Copenhagen for a weekend of clubbing, women, booze, and boxing. I wont be going if the fight is held in a Herring.

If Kesslers team refuses, Froch should play real hard ball and get the fight back in Nottingham.

Who cares. It's not like Dirrell had any fans in Nottingham.

Dirrell did have some fans in Nottingham, but as soon as they tried getting a bit rowdy and giving the English some stick the English ruined them and they sat back down and shut up. Dirrells corner of fans looked like something from the Bronx.

WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch is playing hard to get with Mikkel Kessler. Froch is refusing to fight in the Danish city of Herning, demanding a new fight venue for title fight on April 17. Froch fears that most of his fans will be unable to travel all the way to Herning for the fight. He doesn't have a problem with the fight taking place in Kessler's country of Denmark. He wants the city of Copenhagen to host the fight. [Click Here To Read More]

I wanted to sample the delights of Copenhagen. I have heard the women are on average, better than the tail we have on offer here in Nottingham.

Does Herring have nightclubs filled with scantily dressed Danish women?

Froch can f*** off, he got a fight in his hometown AND got a hometown decision. What, no one else gets a fight where they want?

[Jamel H]

well one things for certain, Froch doesnt have a problem fighting in his home town...

Kessler is specifically trying to have this fight in the middle of no-where so that froch can't have any fans. Copenhagen is the Danish capital, whats wrong with that place? but no, next Kessler will be asking if they can fight on an oil rig in the south pacific.

Kessler is the *****.

???????...........

To my knowledge Froch has no say in choice of venue.

Hes one of the two fighters fighting, buddy. Of course he has say in the choice of venue.

Froch man up!! He fought Dirrell at his home country now it's Kessler's turn after he fought in Oakland. ***** excuse.

I.l guess Froch is as disappointed as you are (and me and the wife) because if the fight was for the WBA/WBC Parken stadium in Copenhagen in front of 40-50.000 would be the venue. Now Sauerland goes for the TV-profit.

Parken is few kilometers from Kessler's back yard Islands Brygge, so i.l guess Kessler is disappointed too.....

But anyway - no problems for Froch fans to come to Herning. Fly to Copenhagen and then take a 3 hour train journey - probably the same distance as London - Nottingham .....

Fly London - Aarhus - and then you only have to travel 85 km/53 miles to Herning.

So to get there isn't the problem..................
