    It's been a tough year, all the bull**** has shaken even the hardest of boxing fans. You'll be alright though, just gotta take it one fight weekend at a time.
    Damn it, you're right...

        FROCH can do all his dirty moves,anyway AA will knock him out!!!He didn't want to fight in Germany,now like HAYE acts an injurie......no matter,AA will win if they'll fight!Froch is more interested in PASCAL than in the tournament,this is boxing of this decade!!!In MONACO AA will do to FROCH the same punishment that MONZON did to BENVENUTI!

          and the only guy not ducking the next fight is Arthur Abraham..just give him the tournament win so everyone can move on, its obvious that the Andre's are not keen to fight each other and Froch is now Mr Fraud.

            Give them a break,if it wasnt for Showtime boxing would have been garbage this year,atleast the tournament is the BEST fighting the BEST,and if anything,other networks are trying to follow trend like HBO and are trying to do a similar tournament,this is the best thing to happen to boxing in a long time
            the idea of a tournament was great, but so many disappoiting events

            - controversy surrounding the ref of Ward-Kessler
            - controversy surrounding the ref of Direll-Froch
            - controversy surrounding the ref of Direll-AA
            - Ward postponed his fight against Green
            - Dirrell posponed his fight against AA
            - Froch postponed his fight against AA
            - AA disqualification
            - Dirrell controversial loss to Froch
            - fact that everyone has won at home
            - Ward wanting all his fights in Oakland
            - Froch and AA couldn't agree on a fight location for a while
            - Froch threatening to pull out of the tournament
            - Kessler left the tournament
            - Taylor ko'ed with seconds to go for the second time in 3 fights
            - Taylor dumped out
            - Green mentally weak Green coming in as replacement
            - Bute left out
            - Kessler's vacated WBC title not in line for AA-Froch
            - Dirrell-Ward still haven't agreed on the terms of their fight

            this boxing game is run by politics and *******

            now, the positive points :

            - 5 times out of 6, the right man has won
            - there have been some good surprises
            - there have been some good battles
            - the 360 shows are great
            - maybe it will set a precedent, an example for other divisions and networks to follow
            - the man to come out on top will face Bute and a new lineal champion will be crowned

                  I'm tired of these post poned fights. At least the last quarter will be sick. Ward/Dirrell, AA/Froch, Marg/Pac, Cotto/Chavez, Donaire/Montiel, "super 4", JMM/Kats.

                    And that 'injury' was just as much balony as this one.

                    This fight wont get set before Ward and Dirrell is. This is just ugly politics revolving around the Ward-Dirrell venue dispute and the lack of title in AA-Froch.

                      I wouldn't be surprised if there is more to this than meets the eye. With Ward-Dirrell seemingly up in the air and the two fights now apparently being semi-finals, perhaps Showtime wanted to have them both take place on the same night so are postponing this until that fight is set up?

                      I think there is something going on behind the scenes that we don't yet know about.
