      Only problem with having this fight at a big venue will be the fact that the place will be half empty. Nobody in London wants to see this bum fight. Mitchell hasn't had anywhere near the exposure that Froch has had but will easily outsell Froch when he fights Katsidis. The only people that want to see him fight are from
      Nottingham. He is not an attraction in England hence the fact that no T.V stations want to pick up his fights.

        Yeah Direll outboxed the **** out of Abraham but the latter got the last laugh.

        Arthur suckerpunched Andre in the chin when he slipped on the floor and then suddenly........
        Direll convulsed on the canvass just like a fish out of water... no, it was probably like him having a wet dream coz his eyes were closed

        haha just kidding man.

          People talk about Froch's hometown decision wins but in reality the only fight that Carl can won in the UK that could have gone to the opponent (within reason) was the Dirrell fight.

          Factor is how disgraceful Dirrell was that fight and he gets no sympathy from me.

            Fighting in your own hometown definitely gives a fighter a lot of edge.

            Especially when it gives the fighter peace of mind that a decision will always favor him whenever it goes the distance.

            And Froch and Abraham knows this too well. They won't easily give up on that hometown advantage without a fight.

                    right, he gets no sympathy from you because he boxed a fight that would illustrate the phrase "hit but dont get hit". you have no clue what the definition of boxing is. the real factor was that nobody likes americans to beat an overseas fighter no matter where they are so the deck is always stacked against them, especially with 3 european judges

                      You don't get robbed in a close fight.

                      He clearly didn't do enough.

                      He didn;t push forward like he normally does.

                      His body was getting hurt

                      he was getting jabbed and controlled.

                      End of the day, Dirrell was more robbed than him. Who the hell wants to go to nottingham?
