    All three third round Group Stage fights within a week! :happy

    It could only be better if they were on the same night in a mega-card.

    Actually, it could be even better than that if Allan Green weren't involved. :think

    Anyway, YAY! :happy

    Isn't Monaco Kessler's home away from home? Interesting that a fight not involving him would be there.

    I think this will be an awesome fight, simply because froch is the only person I can think of who will try and walk Arthur Abraham down lol

    Have you booked tickets and accommodation? How much did you spend roughly, if you don't mind me asking?

    I'd hoped this fight was gonna be in Ireland.

    sad but true, if he tries his usuall tactic of using no guard he will be on the wrong end of a man sized beating...:good

    I have Waited this Fight for ever and ever. This is the Fight of the Super Six.

    I hope and wait It will be a War.

    Froch will give his all and put real pressure on King Arthur Abraham.

    But Arthur Abraham will Bring the Pain.

    AA by late Stoppage after bloody battle.

    Respect!:deal:yep

    It's a really nice arena but it's an odd location for the fight

    Any word on the undercard? They should have the co-main event be Golovkin vs N'Jikam.

    There are a lot of Armenians in this area (Marseille, Nice, ...). I think there will be more AA fans.

    :lol:

    At least as many Brits as Armenians living in the south of france I would have thought...

    Really :think
    There are +/- 100 000 Armenians in Marseille. Same in Lyon. Maybe 20-30 000 in Nice.

    If i were froch i'd be keeping this on the inside as much as possible. Given abraham range and he will swing for the fences. Froch is strong but the only question in this fight is how well his chin will hold up. If it does, abrahams low work rate might cost him more than a decision loss.
