    This is old news. It was confirmed like 2 weeks ago. Froch is a greedy *******, Hennessy is a greedy *******, Setanta are tight *******s, ITV are tight *******s, Sky are tight *******s etc.

    They'll make pittance streaming it live, they'll get the die hards that want to see it, they'll get people who want to see it but know how to stream it for free, and then the rest of the UK who probably won't want to stay up until 5am to watch a fight on their computer. They must have wanted too much money, probably relative to how much bigger Froch is making this fight out to be than it really is.

    Maybe it is a question of greed on Foch/Hennesy's part but surely someone would take on a fight where a brit has a great chance of beating a BIG american name on his own soil.
    It does'nt matter whether your a Froch fan or not this is a big let down to British fight fans .....
