Yeah.

Is Brook the mandatory for that belt? I'm not sure. Or his fight with Jones an Eliminator?

I think it's a 50-50 fight, I'm leaning on Quigg but Munroe is a live dog in there, no doubt about it. He's hungry, focused and determined so I'm looking forward to it.

You betting on it? Don't think I'm going to.

I was thinking about putting a punt on Chambers over Adamek. Not sure though.

Havent even looked at the odds. Might get tempted if i see something thats good value. Wont be a big bet though!

Yeah Brook v Carson is an eliminator im pretty sure but i dunno if Bailey can take a voluntary defence in the mean time or not.

I cannot wait for this fight to happen! - Although for Froch to say that he fought Kessler in his hometown is like if they fought again in Ireland and Kessler said that was Froch's hometown. Make it in the MEN with 20k and let's rock and roll!

Andy, I'd say more like London than Dublin. Although I get your point with the ferry etc. But it was in Kesslers home country.

If Froch wins a close bout where should the rubber match be? I'm voting for Amsterdam. Who wants to go

Hey Carl, how about the hometown decision you got vs Dirrell? Whens that rematch?

For the record - Kessler beat Froch fair and square. Froch robbed Dirrell.

How did Froch rob Dirrell? If you really believe Dirrell was robbed then you should be putting it on the Italian and Belgian judges not the fighter. Besides Dirrell needs to earn the shot again, he hasn't done anything of significance for some time now.

I'd watch Froch v Dirrell again in a small ring but not in a ring big enough for Dirrell to avoid engaging for 9 rounds, no one wants to see that again.

Since when did you have to beat other top fighters to earn a rematch to
a fight where many ppl thought you won?

I had it a draw. Neither man looked that good although Dirrell 'grew up' around the 10th round. I thought he would win a rematch but he's lost the momentum. There's no reason for a rematch until Dirrell does something. And it was in no way a robbery. It was a close fight that could have gone either way but the disgraceful biased commentary on Showtime misled a lot of people. Dirrell has all the talent in the world but his desire (or heart) may not be 100%.
