This is a brilliant fight as we are the number 1 & 2 rated fighters in the WBC rankings; both unbeaten with excellent records and high knock out ratios. It doesn’t get much better than this”.

Looks like Inkins reasons for pulling out were genuine enough then.

Carl is gonna be pissed off with the delay, combine that with another 6 weeks hard training behind him and Denis is in a whole world of trouble. It's gonna be a good year for Our Frochy

They just rescheduled the fight, so it would happen after Hopkins/Calzaghe and they can fight for the vacant WBC title, instead of having just a title eliminator now, that´s my theory anyway.

while Froch was up for that fight and was in great shape physically and mentally, he may be a bit thrown off by the rescheduling. Inkin may have been stung by criticism and perhaps will come in fired up.

It's all true, but it's not the way I choose to look at the situation

There's no mention of Showtime in Wellingtons press release

Anyone know if they're gonna pick this one up again? abit of US exposure wouldn't go amiss for either fighter

Agonising delay, but it will worth it if Carl delivers the goods. I'm optimistic 8)
