Comments Thread For: Abraham vs Froch: Carl Still Wants a Nottingham Venue

[TEDetc]

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?

He was the champion, Kessler didn't do enough to take his belt away from him. Besides, Froch landed the harder, more effective punches. Kesslers flurries were very inaccurate and not damaging punches. Froch won the fight, it was a close fight but I always say in them sort of 50-50 close fights you give it to the champion.

Both of them are b*tchin' about where the fight should take place. That's a shame.

The venue dispute is far from over. Carl Froch is still pushing for his home city of Nottingham to host his next fight in the Super Six Boxing Classic. Froch is set to fight Arthur Abraham in August. Abraham's promoters, Sauerland Event, would like the fight to take place in Germany. [Click Here To Read More]

No can do.

It's contracted it must be in Europe.

It doesn't matter if the fight is in his hometown, with his dad as the ref, the judges being his 3 closest friends, and his gloves being loaded.......he's still getting KO'd BAD!

Couldnt have said it any better, This fight is not going to decision, so Arthur doesnt have to worry about location and biased refs **cough (Lawrence Cole) cough** .

[Shattered Jaw]

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

Dude, the USA is just as bad as anywhere for robberies. Lewis Holyfield, Cintron Martinez (robbed 3 times in one fight would you believe) and Sturm DLH.

Worse than any of those: Funeka-Guzman I, Casamayor-Santa Cruz.

Obviously you have no idea how fights are supposed to be scored.
