Comments Thread For: Arthur Abraham Says Carl Froch Fight Will Be in London

[argminasyan]

Arthur, no need to worry about the fight being in America... You'll see so many Armenian fans there it will feel like the fight is in Armenia. Dirrell is the one who should worry, and trust me the judges wont dare to steal the fight from you. I will guess that at least 70% of th fans will be for you, Los Angeles Armenians have been waiting for years to see you live and support you brother!!!!

I seriously hope this fight is in the UK. I think the chances are pretty high too. Hennesey and Froch will definitely push for home advantage, even though a London crowd will bring Froch a 50/50 support. He isn't that liked in England.

Froch is gonna get exposed at some point but i hope he pulls it off and wins super six, maybe then he can shut up about Calzage

I wonder if AA will amke any fans if he does beat Froch. seems like the UK has elected Carl the next big thing instead of Khan. I eagerly await AA's KO of Fraudch

Lol, what makes you say that, no he isn't.

TBH neither get enough support but Froch probably less. Haye's the UK leader fan wise probably right now.

What I like most about this article, is Abraham saying he's concerned about a decision for Dirrell. That's fairly astute of Arthur, he clearly recognises the style match up could lead to that, especially in light of subjectiveness on the Froch fight with Dirrell.

I was concerned he didn't recogise the issue with styles with Andre with the whole Ottke sparring thing. AA has a damn good chance at beating Froch too, he's shown he's a tough fella who could ride that pressure.

Does anyone know the tentative date?

If this fight's in London, which I doubt, I will make an effort to make the trip for sure.

In Arthur's own words when he was questioned about the judges:

"They won't **** with us over there, I guarantee you"

Clearly he wants to end things before the it goes to a decision...

i doubt froch can beat abraham tbh..

IMO everyone should wait for the results of stage 2 before making bold predictions for round 3...it's everything about momentum and will...

[BetterCallSaul]

If Froch beats Kessler he will be pushing for a date at the Nottingham City Ground, which will definitely out-do any London venue.

I would expect a Froch vs AA, September, City Ground - 40,000.

AA is gonna win this tourney, he got dirrell and froch to beat and ahead on points.
