    Froch wants it in nottingham abraham wants it in germany.

    Froch was promised he would get the choice but I can see slimey team sauerland demanding germany and pulling out if it's not held there.

    My take is no way should this fight take place in germany or nottingham needs to be in america or somewhere out of europe.
    Anywhere in europe other than uk will favour abraham because brits are universally hated throughout europe.

    I just cant see abraham and slimey corrupt sauerland agreeing to england.

    I read something about Froch having an agreement, so that he fights one home, one away, and so on.

    I think they want the fight in Germany for a couple of reasons. First being that Abraham is still the biggest draw in this tournament. The second being all the games Shaw played in regards to the Dirrell fight. First the fight was going to be in California, then they waited till two or three weeks out and Dirrell claimed an injury. They had to break camp, fly back to Germany, start training again after Abraham was probably near peaking, and then fly back to Detroit. That much traveling and those kind of interuptions will adversely affect a training camp and fighter's relative fitness come fight time.

    amateurish promoting from these so called worldclass promoters. what a ****ing joke they are. this should of already be implemented in the contracts months ago, not when the competition is already up and running.

    Are you familiar with the phrase 'sweeping generalizations?" :lol:

    America seems like the logical choice from a sporting perspective. But $£ means it'll be where the fan bases are, either Germany or UK.

    Whoever goes abroad, will expect a pretty hefty purse I would expect.

    WTF are you talking about?

    Even if you did believe what you were saying, the location of the fight is clearly irrelevant when you're actually talking about the nationality of the judges. Who have all been neutral in all the European-based fights so far.

    There was no controversy in Abraham-Taylor in Germany. Froch was very lucky to get the decision in Nottingham. I say if both sides have a problem, stage the fight somewhere in between, Amsterdam or something, not much of a distance for British and German fans.

    I think it should be in England even though Berlin makes more sense business wise. Abraham has already advanced through to the finals, Froch needs points to secure a spot.

    Obviously both men will push for hometown advantage, as home advantage have been proven 6-0 thus far. So seriously, can you blame Abraham, or are you just that much of an idiot?

    Stop crying. Froch lost and that happens. I like the idea of letting the fight take place in a neutral country.
