    Darn it! i am worried that this may be some sort of precursor to the whole tournament falling apart with Dirrell Ward not yet being set in stone

    I'm glad I didn't rush into booking anything for this. Would be a crying shame if true though.

    Sources close to the situation have informed FightNews that the October 2nd Super-Six battle between “King” Arthur Abraham and Carl Froch will have to be rescheduled. According to German newspaper BILD, Froch suffered a back injury in training and won’t be able to prepare for the fight with Abraham scheduled to take place in Monaco. More to come.

    before any slags of the super 6......how else can this be helped???

    Hopefully we see this doubled with Ward vs Dirrell before the end of the year.

    No way Audley will take him out that quickly.

    Good God No! This was to be a guarenteed FOTY.

    I just hope this doesn't set a trend and deplete what was looking like a great schedule for the rest of 2010. I remember when Haye v. Wlad was called off last summer and it seemed to set things off with fights falling through or being cancelled left, right and centre...it all took a southern course that year from that point onwards.
