    Mick put Froch in the postion where it was pretty much impossible (judging by the scorecards) for him to win via decision.... no way this should of been in Denmark when Kessler got schooled in his last fight the way he did, aswell as Froch being the obvious world champion too!

    There was also NO promotion for this fight over here at all! I didn't see one mention on any news channel before or after the fight aswell Hennessy coming up with genious idea of putting it on full priced PPV primetime?

    Let's put it this way.... if Froch was in the super six with Warren this fight would of probably happened in Nottingham.... and Carl would more than likely still be world champion because of it. Fat Mick is not a promoter good enough to hold a world champion and hopefully Froch (and other stablemates looking to get to world class) will now realize this.

    Anybody agree?

    By the way I'm not saying Froch was the deserved winner or anything, but in an ideal world it should have been scored ALOT closer.

    Kessler won that clearly in any city, is Froch supposed to have every fight in Notts and get home town decisions?

    Not while he's leading the cavalry charge against the Germans, it would be like Removing Churchill during the war, its just asking for trouble!

    Some felt Froch should have won. But you dion't get my point. Froch is the undefeated champion.... Kessler has just come off a humiliating loss. And Denmark of all places??? Come on mate get with it. :nut

    Mick's done things wrong but let's be fair. Froch has had 27 fights and his record speaks for itself.

    All I wish is that Froch's career went a touch faster and he should be MUCH more popular by now.

    He is probably the most exciting British fighter at championship level.

    I'm with it, Kessler won clearly, those who think otherwise are delusional. It wouldn't be fair, if one fighter had all of his fights in his backyard, what would be the point of the tournament.

    According to sportinglife Froch has given an ultimatum that the Abraham fight is in the UK or he pulls out of the tourney.

    That's a message to Mick if ever I saw one.

    Is he tied to Hennesey for the entire tourney? If he's not I'd get on the phone to FW today do a deal and tell him to get the Abraham fight on in Manchester (not Nottingham) and get it on Sky.

    This could be Carl's last big pay day, he needs to extract maximum value.
