As I stated previously, there is a clause in the contracts that all semis and the final have to be in the U.S.A. This essentially kills all possibility of Haye/Froch live double-header in the UK. Frochy is apparently not happy about it, thinks at best he'll be able to get Canada, although considering he's not fighting a guy who gets much help from U.S judges (or any judges for that matter) and who is Jamaican he might as well fight in the States IMO. So, sorry to all those that were looking forward to it, but best you'll get is Haye Vs Uninspiring Challenger. Let's hope Sky still try and get Frochy on board, it'd be good for him. Dunno how much he/Fat Mick would be offered when it won't start til 3A.M mind you. Source: The Scene
Bit misleading Flea. There is still a possibility but its unlikley. Looks like Froch vs Johnson will be the US leg of a PPV.
This is pretty much what I've said Robbie Boy:think Sorry for not confirming there is about a 5% chance we'll be able to see it live if Showtime change their minds from what they originally set out at the start. It makes no sense for them to show it delayed. It'll be a headline fight, not like when Arthur fought Jermain a bit earlier to satisfy German TV (that was still late) because it was basically the undercard to Froch-Dirrell. When is Ward-Abraham (if he fights?) anyway mate?
Froch-Johnson may make **** all if Haye is taking all the PPV! Which, as we know, he will want :deal Ward doesn't sell many tickets; Showtime are selling a product, the super six, which they will be able to advertise far easier if it's on live in the States.
This is a joke. Should have the fight at 2am in England. The fight isn't a draw in North America and we know Glen Johnson will travel if the money is right.
im hoping for haye/arreola, its the best of a bad bunch. couldnt care much for the super 6, the whole tournaments been a big letdown, aslong as we see the winner fight bute i'll be happy.
Ward sells 10,000 in Oakland. No idea why they couldn't come to an agreement and bring Froch/Johnson to England.
your thread said No Chance which means it 100% won't happen. There is still a possibility even if its a slim one. The 2am/3am idea others have suggested could work. How about a PPV with Haye vs Chagaev at 11pm 2 fights in between 2am Froch vs Johnson Ward vs AA is the week before in Vegas. Not 100% but most likley (see that I did there mate?)
