    So Froch wants to breach the contract after he already agreed to the terms, what a jerk.

    Oh yeah. If you want to get serious and factual about it, we are a far more jacked up nation. Believe me, I love my country and I hate my country. But I'm sure I can come up with twice as much **** to talk about America than most in England could, as imaginitive as the English are. If I let my true feelings about America fly on this forum, in writing, I'm sure some secret service agency would have me incarcerated in seconds flat. We just tend to get a little defensive when people from other countries say it though, be it true or false.

    I can see you're American so I'll give you a little help with your geography, Copenhagan is still in Denmark, how is Copenhagan not a home fight for kessler?

    I think you don't understand what's the hometown advantage. For Kessler, it's to choose a decent arena for his fans, not Froch's.

    STFU...This has nothing to do with Dirrell

    ***** move by Froch.All of the fighters will at some point be fighting in front of a hostile foreign crowd.I'm quickly losing respect for Carl, a fighter I really use to like

    DF: america to me is the epitome of dickensian! it is the best country in the world,it is the worst country in the world! the difference between the US and the UK is this: when we have a world series,we ask other countries to participate!

    frochs happy to fight in denmark. Although this fight is for the super six tourny, it's for frochs belt as well. kessler is lucky to be getting a shot straight after an embarrasing loss, he should be reasonable.

    lillary: 'stfu' lol say please! you are correct it does have nothing to do with direll but if u pulled the cholesterol out of your eye sockets and read it in context you would see i was responding to the dillatantes who brought direll into it!

    True, but only two buses a day from airport to Herning and no train service. I'll still try and go but many won't bother as part of the attraction was a weekend in Copenhagen

    Nottingham is relatively easy to get to. I doubt Herning is.

    Exactly. Dirrell had to fight in a hostile environment in Stage 1, Kessler had to fight in a hostile environment in Stage 1, Taylor had to fight in a hostile environment in Stage 1 (I actually thought Germany treated him pretty well though), sorry Carl, it's YOUR turn to fight in a hostile environment. Thing is, if it were in Copenhagen, it's sounding like it would be considered damn near a neutral environment, or at least somewhere in the general direction of neutral.

    If I may add, for example, Dirrell doesn't get to follow his last hostile outing with a hometown outing. As a California native, I promise all of you overseas that there will be almost as many Abraham fans in California as there will be Dirrell fans. But I don't recall having heard anything about Dirrell whining about the venue and trying to move it to Michigan (the analogy works, just a slight role reversal). Furthermore, any Germans planning on making the trip are going to be much happier that the fight is in Cali, therefore luring more Germans into making the trip. Suck it up Carl! You've got it good.

    Is this a different Copenhagen, or the Copenhagen in Denmark, where Mikkel Kessler was born and has fought the majority of his career fights? Neutral, you say? :?
