Comments Thread For: Abraham Confident Froch Fight Heading To Germany

[AnthrAxNSB]

Hometown fighters are 5-0 ,interesting.. They need to just flip a coin ,easy as that ,

That clearly does not tell the whole story.

Abraham knocked Taylor out...no controversy there.

Kessler was more or less stopped by Ward...no controversy there.

Kessler got the UD in Denmark in a close fight. It was not particularly controversial, just a close fight. That fight in Nottingham may have had a different outcome, but I don't think anyone can seriously claim it was a robbery.

Dirrell outboxed Abraham for the entire fight and Abraham fouled his way to a DQ. That didn't happen because it was in Detroit. It would have happened at any neutral site. The only place where Abraham could have picked up a victory in that fight was Germany, and that would be a result of Dirrell being forbidden from body punching and Abraham being permitted to punch a downed opponent. Detroit did not win Dirrell the fight.

However, the Froch v. Dirrell outcome only happens in Nottingham. That was home cooking.

So, only two fights went to decision. The three stoppages were not the result of home cooking (obviously).

And, only one of the decisions was particularly controversial. I am not claiming this is good -- one out of five is bad -- but it is par for the course, unfortunately.

Abraham shouldnt have 2/3 fights in Germany...
Froch shouldnt have 2/3 fights in England....


The only fair way is to do it in the U.S

This.

If Abraham fights Carl in germany it's over for Carl. We've all seen how Saurland operate.

No cant do!!!!! First they dont have fans in the US. Second Some guys will get the 2/3 at home anyways

Not True!

There is a 1 million Armenian population here in L.A, and everyone, everyone is a boxing fan!
Darchinyan v. Donaire is happening in August at the Home Depot center, A main event fight, but put them on the undercard and AA v. CF as main event, tickets will sell overnight.

Thats a FACT!

[Mr. Philadel]

"King" Arthur Abraham is confident his fight with Carl Froch will take place in Germany on August 21, 2010. Abraham was counting on Mikkel Kessler to beat Froch in Denmark. "If Froch wins, the fight is probably going to happen in Nottingham but if Mikkel wins, it's going to head to the 02 World in [Berlin] Germany," Abraham was quoted by Gazeta on Friday.

[Tom_Tocca]

If Notts than please at the City Ground...otherwise the fight should be staged in London at the O2 or in Berlin at the O2 World...

[PittyPat]

Enough of this hometown garbage - all fights from now should be held on neutral ground. No excuses.

[$partacus]

Froch or Abraham would be crazy to accept the fight in the others country.
