    boxing needs to go back to being a gentleman's sport. No neck choking, no unnecessary insults, head butting, cussing, bottling people, tripod throwing imbecile type of behaviour.

    It sounded like froch was apologizing personally to kessler for his comments and a game kessler accepted his apology while remaining competitive.

    Thanks!

    And when exactly was boxing so gentlemanly?

    Was Ali gentlemanly?
    Liston?
    Sullivan?
    Johnson?

    Well, you know that there will be war tomorrow night, so all the pre-fight stuff really does not matter to me.

    Did it?

    PPV sales are supposed to be very suspect

    You have to like both these guys.

    I think Froch redeems himself on the night. Kessler is just a little bit faded, and Froch is entering his prime.

    Solid. These two guys should respect each other after the battle they had. I love seeing fighters with respect for each other. The respect shown between Gatti and Ward will be something I always remember.

    You can make good money selling ppv boxing in Denmark. Small country, decent market.
