    I reckon he'll stick with Froch but still have a role in training the Ams...interesting about the new changes being implemented into the scoring and no headguard, never heard about that before now

    What an absolute joke of a rule all it does is further the amateurs from the pros even more im pretty sure McCracken will stay with Froch providing he hasnt retired for whatever reason but he will have some ancillary consultant role in the ams its says cant be a 1st or second but he can still run things behind the scenes just cant be ringside in any official capacity

    1. the AIBA are being dicks and are doing this for 1 reason: They are pissed off with Paul King and want to punish GB Boxing/ the ABAE

    2. Double standards since the WSB is basically pro boxing and the lines between the codes there are very crossed

    More on this story this Thursday on the BBC London show.
    There will also be an update on the World Series of Boxing - they have seven round fights in the individual finals and the top five boxers will get the first five places at next year's Olympics.
    I was with Wu and Kim last night (this story ran in today's Independent) and it was quite a shocker.

    Adios and thanks.
