http://www.sportinglife.com/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=boxing/08/12/07/BOXING_Froch_2nd_Nightlead.html Froch paid for his attacking style with stitches to his left eye and both fists and also revealed he had suffered a perforated eardrum and a cracked rib in the fight build-up "I got a small crack in my rib and had to go for an X-ray last week," revealed Froch. "I could have pulled out but I'm 31 years old and the older you get the more opportunities you miss." He did not miss this one." He might not be the finest boxer in the world but I respect Froch's heart & determination, there really aren't that many boxers willing do fight with such grit. I will always be watching Froch's future fights from now be they Win/lose/draws because quite frankly he's exciting to watch and that at the end of the day is why I watch boxing
