Abraham will refuse to fight outside germany

I agree. Should have all been finalised at the start

 

Ottke to Abraham:"Arthur, don't worry, you'll be fine. Just rob Froch like I robbed Reid."

this is pure nonsens!

As proven, fiascos in England are far worse than anywhere. At least if these guys get robberies overseas it's only robberies, hometown guys aren't allowed to use WWE and UFC rules without warning adding to the upcoming robbery like they do in England. Even if they did the fans won't exactly cheer such shameful tactics, fans in England cheer and boo if the referee decides to give the other guy a one second break from WWE maneuvers.

 

Seen the Mormeck/Bell fight?, some unprofessional stuff there for an undisputed title fight. I know/hope you're sarcastic but had to mention this.

 

I think his point was it's a neutral site. Mormeck is French. It would still sell. It's a good idea if they cannot reach an agreement, which I do believe they will.

 

I know Mormeck is French but the officiating in that fight was beyond ridiculous and poor for a major fight like that one. They didn't even know how to announce the winner properly.

 

I think Froch may as well quit the tournament since he's not going to win it anyway.

As far as where the fight should be - both guys seem like they have an equal shot at fighting at home. It's unfair to whoever has to fight away, but hey, that's boxing.

 

Rent the arena. Bring in outside officials. Can't be that complicated.

 

Is there any reason to expect the outcome to be any different from the outisde officials that are already being used?

 

The fight will likely happen where the most money (gate, TV) will be made. This most probably won't be the US nor will it be another neutral country, with the exception of maybe the Netherlands but that's a long shot.

If Froch's handlers have nothing in writing that prevents the organizers of the Super Six and Sauerland to stage this in Germany then I bet pure economics will give Sauerland pretty good arguments. Abraham will easily sell out the O2 Arena in Berlin which holds approx. 15,000.

How big was the live gate in Nottingham for Froch - Direll?

 

Exactly. People get robbed in the US and Germany all the time, but the shennanigans that go on in the UK are something else.

 

The fight should take place in Vegas.

Fans will travel, trust me!
