    'Froch fit and focused for WBC title fight'

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/9205210.stm

    A little interview from today, it all seems to be going well by the sounds of things. He says the back injury is now not a problem. He's still sore about what he sees as a poor decision against Kessler though and wants revenge on Sauerland.

    Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Kessler, Abraham, Ward, that's one superb set of fights on the bounce and it's a shame he's not getting any public recognition for it.

    Disgraceful that sky won't get behind him and instead put 2-3 months building up to a farce last saturday night. When is he heading out to Helsinki ?

    Bit of bruising under his right eye, fairly obvious too.

    He doesn't sound that happy or confident and it looks like he's already had a fight.

    Exactly. Froch - Abraham is a virtually guaranteed barnstormer and Haye - Harrison was a virtually guaranteed mismatch.

    But Haye - Harrison was easier to sell to the masses I guess.

    More to do with his promoter hennesey rather than sky dis-liking Froch, should have left him along time ago

    How can anyone not appreciate Carl Froch - the guy is a breathe of fresh air and stands for everything that is good about boxing:bbb

    I agree, like his personality or not: one thing is for sure, these kind of match ups are what we should all be rallying around.

    The list of guys he has fought one after the other... great stuff!!

    Carl Froch is the best Fighter the brits have at the moment only they dont realise it yet...

    I would never miss one of his fights. No problem missing David Haye or Amir Khan and catching them later the next day but Froch fights are always fun.

    I expect Khan and Haye to get stopped by the best in their respective division but Froch can beat anyone at supermiddle potentially including Andre Ward.

    Why? because he unified the weakest division in boxing or the fact he beat the shittest and slowest ape of a boxer Valuev?

    If David Haye and Carl Froch fought at a catch weight of 190pounds.

    David Haye would knock him spark out still.
