    Anyone got any ideas when the Froch fight is being announced.

    I have never been abroad to watch the boxing but if this fight is in Las Vegas, I really want to go.

    Ive heard October 18th mentioned a few times.

    Can anyone recommmend a good site to get package deals from as when the fight is announced??? (i.e flight, accommodation & tickets)

    Or is it better to do it all seperatley?

    All advice welcome?

    Thanks

    Atlantic City 29th is favourite. There is a radio interview with Froch on BBC.

    My dad was over in Hamburg for the fight at the weekend, he said he bumped into Froch, and Carl said Atlantic City is looking the favourite

    Eddie Hearn is putting a package deal together for the fight.

    I would be very tempted to go, especially in vegas but AC is a bit of a shitehole. Ill see what packages Eddie comes up with, no doubt the information given to us will be better than "phone up lee froch for a ticket if you want one"

    Vegas or AC... that would probably be the deciding factor if I was going to one of the two.

    it is looking like Atlantic City or maybe Los Angeles is going to be the venue.

    I heard on the news yesterday that Vegas didn't want to hold it as the Pacquiao-Marquez fight is the money spinner and only 6 weeks apart.

    Don't be suprised if it is. The Son Of Showtime works in mysterious ways.

    Agreed.

    MSG would be my preferred choice as I have family on the east coast and it would be a little cheaper overall to get to :) Trips to NYC are way cheaper and more available than LV.

    Plus is fairly equidistant for Froch and Ward fan(s)!

    That would be a total disgrace. Froch should refuse it. Hope it isn't the case, it would make Ward look like a corrupt *****.

    The whole contest would lose any credibility it has left. Thank **** fat Mick isn't promoting Froch any more or he'd be ****ed. Can't see Hearn standing for his ****.
