    Fairly sure that Froch is on record saying if he gets beat tonight then he'll probably call it quits. May just be a ploy to sell the PPV.

    Can't wait for this fight tonight. It might not be the best fight of the year but I'm looking forward to it

      Yeah really, really looking forward to it. The last fight was dynamite.

      Looking at Froch's record - how come he has such a low fight tally for a 35 year old?

        Think he turned pro quite late maybe when he was 24 or 25

          He turned pro fairly late - he was 23 / 24. He's only fought twice a year for the last 5 years. Understandable given the amount of wars he's been in recently.

          According to BoxRec Kessler turned pro 4 years earlier than Froch.

                Got Bellew 29 - 28 ahead after 3.

                Better than the first fight.

                    Adverts between rounds on a PPV are unforgivable. Hate Sky for doing this.

                      Bellew definitely looking better, he is working hard. He's not great though is he? Seems to swing and miss a lot.

                          I bought the PPV Shaggy. Try wiziwig for streams however be warned a couple of lads on east side boxing are already reporting that some of the streams they've been on have been closed. Apparently Hearn / Sky have issued some sort of threat / promise to shut down as many streams as possible ahead of the Froch fight.

                              Yeah he throws a hell of a lot of air shots.

                              Sky boxing commentary is so bias.

                              Bellew throws a body shot. Chilemba counters with an uppercut and the commentary is 'ohhhh what a nice body shot by Bellew' no mention of the uppercut
