Froch refuses an offer to fight in germany, demand neutral venue

[Hard Boiled]

Froch has no choice but to accept the terms and conditions dictated to him by German promotor Sauderland. If the German promotor decides the fight is in Germany it will be in Germany, The rules that both Sauderland and Hennessy agreed to was that the fight would take place where its most fiancially feasible. Against Abraham the logical and most profitiable venue is Berlin, Germany.

I must point out that im very disappointed in Carl Froch, For a long time now, For many years he has been unduly and overly critical of Joe Calzaghe and Amir Khan. Calzaghe was criticised for not fighting abroad, Yet Calzaghe fought more fights than Froch abroad and he outboxxed Kessler, The man to very convincingly defeated Froch. Coming to Amir Khan he was critical of his fights saying they were "boring", Also there was an element of jealousy over the fact that Khan is younger, richer and much more widely covered and acknowledged.

Yet Carl Froch instead of accepting his loss began blaming volcanoes, His girlfriend (For being pregnant), The judges,His ear drum ,Sauderland et al.

Carl Froch problem is he actually believes his own hype. I never did rate him as a world class fighter, I doubt he will get his title or another world title again.

I gotta admit that Abrahams team are ****s in this, they want to fight for the home town ref and scoring advantage, why wont abrahams camp agree to fight in a neutral ground.

What you talking about? Froch wanted it in Nottingham.

So was he offering AA more to go there?

He already had a hometown decision. He of all should have not cried.

I agree with Froch. If He fights in Germany he will get robbed. AA gets protected there!!! Watch Miranda vs Abraham 1 and you see why Froch is refusing!

Why don't they have it in Paris? Or just somewhere random in Europe. Thousands can come from Germany and the UK with ease on budjet airlines and the TV money wouldn't change at all.

Im sorry but if the fight is anywhere in europe exept england, it'll be an advantage for abraham. England is a subject of jeolousy and hate for most of europe!

[Spray_resistant]

I don't blame Froch for not wanting to go to Germany after losing a fight that really could have and i think should have gone his way.

Germany has to be the most notorious place in the world for robberies and hometown reffing.

Actually you're completely wrong. Froch has the right to demand that the fight happen on neutral soil.

Yet more anti-Froch nonsense from an Amir Khan fan.

Do you have a copy of the contract that was signed by both promoters? Please share if you do, I only heard about how the fight has to take place in Europe nothing about the fight taking place where it makes the most money.

No one is going to paris to live there, They going to participate in a boxing match, Paris has host a lot of boxing events over the last 10 years.. I dont see how amsterdam is any good in terms of boxing unless you're looking to get high.

Id rather have a couple of days in the Amsterdam Coffee Shops, than in a horid place like Paris.

My opinion is purely from a fans enjoyment point of veiw.
