yeah they seemed pretty amicable and spoke about it quite a bit.
what was interesting was when they first approached the subject Froch basically said something like
"look, i don't even know Amir, we've hardly ever spoken which is why it's good for them to meet like this, around a table and chat because he's realised he's(amir) is a nice bloke"
He then explained to Amir what happened - it was over Amir getting knocked out twice.
A reporter asked Froch -"if HE, was knocked out twice like Kahn had been, what he do...." froch said, if it was me....carl froch, at 35, wife/kids, end of career, two bad knockouts like that....I'd retire"
this end up going out as "FROCH SAYS KAHN SHOULD RETIRE"
things got out of context, kahn kicked off on twitter and it went back and forth
but they both seemed like it had been sorted out and they were joking about it and saying how difficult it is with the media....how they as boxers lock themselves away for months, no see's or hears them, as they train their bollocks off - and then come fight time/press conferences etc, they are so wound up and highly strung, that they will say something, literally one sentance that last five seconds in a press conference that is an hour long - but those five seconds will get jumped all over and the press make a mountain out of mole hill
At this point they look at Haye....he was ****ing laughing and saying the opposite
- he said he loves it all, plays up to it, knows exactly what he is going to say all the time and get it out there and that it's all part of his 'plan' for pr to make money

Hard working and humble but extremely confident in himself/own ability without any arrogance coming out
Saw him fight as well and he looks a real prospect. Must have been great for him to be in that company and be inspired.
