[way2strong]

What do you guys think of this fight taking place on the big mexican holiday? Will it be a huge event ?What do the brits think of Froch is he a big star?

[Hougigo]

Would be pretty big and entertaining all around. I know Froch wants to fight in Vegas... but maybe he can settle for the Forum

I've seen that mentioned a couple of times, but why?

I've seen that mentioned a couple of times, but why?

most of the Mexican's who attend Vegas fights probably drive from the L.A. area to begin with so who really cares it saves alot of gas money and is sure to be a sold out event..My question is will the brits fly over to support froch ?

Because Arum's been trying to build it back up and the Marquez/Alvarado was a good fight to get people excited... this one... would get people going crazy

Also Bob still feuding with that Vegas Casino... forgot who. They own a bunch of casinos down there.

I dont know why people keep throwing out Chavez's name like he's a star. He has lost a lot of fans in the last couple years and Froch isnt exactly very well known here. Froch is better of taking on Degale and then fighting Chavez or GGG early next year

Yeah I think so, they'll probably a lot more enthused by Vegas than Inglewood though.

Ah right. I think the Vegas part is likely non-negotiable for Froch, it's iconic for boxing.

I don't think all of them are off limits. There are some he's used before that they dont own... Mandalay bay? Honestly, I don't really remember.

I suggested the Forum because he's building it up

Everybody knows Floyd's fighting on Sept 13th. No way anybody else puts on a card that day.

I think it would be huge. Froch just fought in front of 80,000 fans and Chavez jr. has the name and Mexican fanbase.
