    An outbreak of common sense in boxing? :think

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8958101.stm

    Opinion on this seemed unanimous even on here! :lol: The best option all-round, well done to Showtime and everyone else involved if this is how it transpires.

    Definately great for boxing to see showtime and the WBC handle the situation like this. Common sense is the only thing that can bring boxing back. Business sense has been dominating to the dismay of the fans, so it's good to see common sense win a round.

    Hey Jepster aint seen you for a bit , hope your well brother !

    Tell you what the Froch/Abraham will be insane, whoever loses is pretty much in the wilderness. Direll and Ward are young enough to come again but for the other two is pretty much do or die. It was already gonna be a good fight but now its got everything.

    I hope Kess isnt out too long a guy his age cannot afford to languish on the sidelines.

    I'm well thank you hope you're doing fine as well mate :good

    I agree that this is a do or die fight for Froch and Abraham, but I think Abraham could salvage his career by going down to MW again. I've got Froch to win the fight. Think he'll take it on points. He's a better boxer than people give him credit for. Crazy fight Froch vs. Abraham. I'm glad that they are showing it in Denmark.

    I hope that Kessler will come back since he's the best boxer Denmark has had since the Bredahl brothers. Kessler has had a good career so if his health is in jeopardy then he should just hang them up.

    nice one !

    i spose the drop down is a possible for Abraham but I think the genie would be out of the bottle with him a little bit , part of his strength was his aura of invincibilty, and he's been shown to be beatable now.

    I too would hate to see Kessler end up damaged goods but I would also be kinda sad if he didnt get the chance to go out as champ ( as big a froch fan as i am I think he'd beat him again ) your spot on though , he has achieved much and his health is way more important.
