    Says the country that brought us Adrien Broner.

    If you guys could rustle up 80,000 to watch a fight you'd probably milk it too.

      Froch is a ****ing beast - If you don't respect him you should just quit watching boxing because rarely ever do fighters say they'll take on all comers and then actually do it. Andre Ward should be sending this dude monthly checks for doing his dirty work for him.
      HAHA. Man, you got to be a Brit. Froch won't take on all comers that's the thing. He won't take on Ward and avenge his loss cuz he's a "spoiler" namsayin?

      Froch is a fuc.king bum that lost to Peter Manfredo Jr. in the Amateurs.

      The guy got a couple wins, but also got a couple gifts. Far from beast status.

        A 4-time world champ (currently unified), with possibly the best recent resume in boxing is a hype job? Some boxing fans truly are clueless.

        What drawing power did Groves have? An all British world title clash between two exciting fighters that sold out an arena...and led to an 80,000 arena rematch - plenty drawing power.

          it's such a funny look when you say things with confidence.


          by american standards, ward's a good draw.

          he's not cotto, mayweather, maruqez, pacquiao, canelo, but he draws very well. other than mayweather, none of those guys fight in their hometowns. hell, other than mayweather, none of them are american at all!

          10K in oakland. that's a great gate for an american fighter in his hometown.


          he's also one of the more popular fighters on regular HBO, doing ratings just behind golovkin and cotto.



          newbies.

          if you guys ever want to learn something about boxing, or prince ward, PM me.

          Oh yeah 10k in Oakland wow!!! whats the unemployment rates there ? 40% ? a house goes for $50k!

          or 80k in london where house sell for $2mil US?

          Ward has never fought on ppv ever and no one even remembers the guy ? he hasn't fought since Lindsay Lohan was straight.

                How can you call someone a hype job when they are a proven veteran?
