    from livefight (via froch's facebook)

    ************** can reveal WBC champion Carl Froch has decided to promote his next two Super Six fights alone without the assistance of Hennessy Sports.

    "I'm no longer working with my representative Mick Hennessy." confirmed Froch.

    "My next two fights are already mapped out within the Super Six tournament so my career in the short term is fine. I can just soley concentrate on the likes of Glencoffe Johnson and hopefully Andre Ward."

    Froch will be fighting in Atlantic City on 4th June and expects a few Cobra fans to make the journey out there.

    "Yeah hopefully it will be much better attended with it being nice and sunny, along the coast and only an hour from NYC.

    "Showtime want me over to be ringside for the Manny Pacquiao versus Shane Mosley fight to, so we can put maximum exposure together. The Super Six is really going to be drilled home over the next six months and it will be really special if I can put the shots together to wrap this trophy up in Style.

    "It's all I think about right now. I'm going all guns blazing to win it." said Froch

    I'm pleased for Froch, if anybody deserves some main stream exposure it's him

    Agreed on the last two posts.

    He might not be a joy to watch (skill wise for example, like Mayweather), but **** me does the man have balls and is NEVER in a dull fight!

    That's the difference between him and khan. Froch would love to be on the lowly channel that is sky sports 3 but because if his former promoter never had the chance. Froch has taken the smaller pay days and the harder fights and is starting to get recognition where as khan has had one tough fight and demands ppv.

    Matchroom will try and get froch no doubt, warren will do everything he can to get froch, when he signs him it will be...carl froch the best boxer in britain but before that he slags him off. i have a feeling froch might go with matchroom

    Froch doesn't like warren, he went to his office for a meeting about linking up with him cos he was nearing the end of a contract with hennesy but warren said he wanted him up at lhw and calzaghe fight would never happen. Froch stayed with hennesy and never got the fight and called the wbo the warren boxing association etc.

    Froch will link up with lou dibella if anyone as they have a good partnership, if he links up with anyone in britain it'd be co-promotions and not a contract fighter as such imho.

    If froch wins super6 he can live and fight in usa and make millions and millions, if he loses the super6 he comes home and gets a strap at light heavy and goes again...

    Good for him, no doubt he will perform admirably and impress regardless of if he wins the Super Six or not. He'll have no shortage of offers once he's done with the competition, gotta think he'll ink with a US promoter. He probably realises hes fighting an uphill battle in terms of trying to establish super-stardom in the UK after Micks inept work.

    No way he goes to Warren/Matchroom. Doesnt need them to make fights.

    Fights Johnson - wins close one.
    Fights Ward - loses.
    Fights Kessler - could go either way.
    Fights DeGale/Groves.
    Fights Cleverly.

    Retires with 5 mill in bank.
