    Froch and Hearn would hope Chavez Jnr would give them a large chunk of the Mexican ppv money because they have the titles, but i cant see Chavez Jnr been to interested in that when he could fight the likes of Sakio Bika for the title for the same amount of money. Froch-Chavez will be a very hard fight to make as both of them want the lions share. Froch would also depend on massive Sky ppv buys for that fight, but he cant expect the fans to buy in big numbers when he is clearly ignoring their calls for the Groves rematch.

    Cool it with the ROBBED crap. Robbed is Reid vs Ottke as shown above, not when yr eyes all rolling around yr head and yr stumbling around like an unstable child. Winning the fight? yes he was. Premature stoppage? yes it was.
    Robbed? No he wasn't, he was in pretty bad trouble.

    Very interesting. That WBA belt that Froch holds is a shambles, the IBF belt is the only thing he holds that matters.

    He'd be desperate to keep it you'd think...

    Excellent news, well done Groves!!! Now he just needs to get a promoter so Fast Eddie doesn't shaft him again. Maybe George could get F***k W****n on board just for this fight, just to ensure that they get a neutral ref and judges. I'm sure W****n would love to get one over on Matchroom aka Trotters Independent Traders.

    Froch & Eddie must be going nuts, out-manoeuvred yet
    again by a 25 year old ginger kid. I can only imagine Froch on the phone yesterday to Hearn, "Eddie, what's happening, this can't happen to me, I'm an international superstar" :|:|:|

    Yesterday was a great day for boxing. Makes you stop and think that perhaps the whole sport isn't corrupt after all.
