There doesn't seem to be a rash run of suicides in here...

    Well I'm not that gutted because Haye was so obnoxious pre fight. Now if Froch looses badly to Ward then I genuinely will be pissed off!
    I wanted Haye to win but he acted the twat so much its hard to feel too much sympathy.

    well froch is going into that fight as the underdog as well, so as long as he tries i wont be too gutted if he loses.

    I'll be gutted if Froch loses (which I think he will:-() because can be British Boxings main star if he comes through the Ward fight. There is no other British boxer more deserving of the support of the masses.

    There's no fear of that. If there's any boxer who personifies the word "tryer", it's Carl Froch. If he loses, he'll go down fighting, just like the Kessler fight.

    So what if Froch loses or if Britain have a few less champions this year? Is it really that big of a deal they don't have a belt, they are still top fighters. People make it out like British boxing is ****ed if a few of their world title holders lose their belts. The quality is still there, and that's what counts. British boxing is healthy and will continue to be regardless of the outcome of the Froch fight.

    I don't think too many people will be gutted that Haye lost. Those that believed he would win seemed to be picking him based on hope more than logic.

    Funnily enough I think Haye deserves more credit than he's getting now but we all know what the media's like.

    And no it means **** all if they don't have belts any more. Haye, Khan, Froch etc are all going for it and deserve big respect for doing so. Macklin wants Martinez, Darren Barker wants him as well. John Murray and Kevin Mitchell want fights with the likes of Brandon Rios etc. Fury and Chisora want to fight each other and want to step up. British boxing is great right now.

    A few years back when we had I think it was 8 'world' champions it meant nothing because a lot of them were no where near the best in their divisions. Now they're all going for it and it's great to see.
