    It is a 9pm(et) start here in North America.England is 5 hours ahead so that means a 2 am start in the UK.

    carl froch is GOOD value and you know he is a fighter who leaves everything in the ring and goes to WAR!! i am staying up if it was Amir Khan i wouldn't bother but carl froch is someone we should stay up if its in the early hours!!

    in fact carl froch should be a PPV fighter as people will actually PAY to watch his fight not the bull**** hand picked opponents Amir khan has in the past

    It's a genuine good fight and has the potential to be one of the fights of the year. He's a froch "nuthugger" because he wants to watch the fight? You are clearly a casual boxing fan. Yes i watch every fight i possibly can.

    Anyone know who are the judges/ref?

    And what happens in the Super 6 if it's a draw?

    I'm sorry if I've hit a nerve, but chill... I've not even said that I dislike Froch or that I'm not going to watch him, quite the opposite to be honest. So missing one fight would make me a casual after I've watched probably every fight on Sky plus box office this year?

    It's ok to say you're going to miss the Khan/Haye fight but not the Froch fight?

    I can count the number of exciting fights on one finger.

    Maidana fight was superb as was the limond fight.

    Because of his vunerablility some of his other fights were also exciting.

    Not that often he is in boring fights IMO.

    Khan and Haye are just as exciting fighters as Froch.

    Just because if a person doesn't have an exciting fight doesn't mean he's not exciting. i.e Dirrel vs Froch.

    Haye is a KO specialist, there's nothing better that boxing fans love more than someone getting KTFO. Haye hasn't had many 'classic' matches because people just can't handle his power for too long.

    Salita match vs Khan was actually very exciting for that 90 seconds or so, Khan went for him, not Salita's fault he couldn't cope with Khan's speed.

    Tyson didn't have many great matches, but my god does it mean he wasn't an exciting fighter?

    It takes 2 to make a great match.

    The excitement with Khan is knowing wether he's scraping a win, or winning by a good few rounds, one punch could turn it around... (unless he's fighting Malignaggi)
