If Froch boxes (!) instead of trying to brawl then he has a good chance. He has to concentrate upon winning round after round instead of trying to knock AA out. Also he has to keep his hands up instead of dangling them below knee level. If Froch has half a brain he should be able to drive home a UD12.
That ain´t neutreal!!! Suisse is just another location for German Promoters, they have done many fights there... Remember Valuev Holyfield!!!! You know what would be the best neutreal place. The Netherlands!!!
And where should it be held 'Dutch Sonny Liston'? Ahoy? De Kuip or one of the soccer stadiums, and will it sell it our not to boxing minded little country? :huh
Amsterdam Arena. They do A big K1 card every year. Been there few years ago, when they had a 20.000 crowd. Pretty good organised. And very good view. I´m pretty sure they can attract at least 5.000 brits for this fight. They travel easily and they love Amsterdam. Don´t know about the Germans, but Abraham is immense popular there. And with the importance of this fight, they should bring 5.000 Germans here too. And there are a lot of Armeniens in Holland, Belgium, Paris and west Germany who would come to this fight And if they put innocent´s european title defense on the undercard. And they promote it right over here. I´m optimistic that there will be at least 5.000 tickets sold here too!! Hell, if they want. They can put Badr Hari, Bonjasky and some others on the undercard. And they can fill the whole stadium!! But that would not be something i prefer!
This sounds good. I think that the more important point is who promotes the fight rather than the location, will this definately be promoted by Sauerland?
It's not neutral if ze Sauerlands are promoting it. Everyone knows they're as bent as a nine pound note and Froch would virtually have to kill AA to win. If it goes the distance AA is guaranteed to win, just like Ottke used to and several other German promoted fighters since. This is not merely a case of the 'home' fighter perhaps getting the nod in a close fight as usually happens. No!! This is a case of Froch will NOT get the decision if this goes the distance
Don't be ridiculous. If Froch boxes smartly, doesn't get KOd or floored and concentrates on winning rounds rather than brawling toe-to-toe then I see very good chances for Froch winning this with a UD12.
You clearly have little knowledge of how ze Sauerlands operate. If everything is fair and above board, then yes, Froch has a good chance of outpointing AA. But if ze Sauerlands are promoting it he hasn't any chance of a decision
Sauerland wil fix this fix for AA if it's in: Germany, Switzerland, Austria. I know Froch gets home advantage in the UK but UK boxing isn't bent like Germany's is. Dirrell lost in a razor thin fight - that isn't the same as some guy getting ottke'd by Sauerland; there's a difference you know people. As good a boxer as he is I really don't think Froch or Hennessy are that smart when it comes to promoting and officiating. They're pretty naive in fact.
