I didn't know Carl was expecting a baby. Congratulations!

Arthur Abraham is still my favourite. His personality comes across well, even though his English isn't great.

I think Ward, Dirrell or Abraham will win it. Abraham was my pick at the beginning.

So Froch thought the volcanic ash delay was a positive?

He said the before the fight. Just like he always says that he has no injuries and his training camp was excellent. He doesn't want to give his opponents any confidence.

Or maybe everything was fine and he just didnt want to admit he was beaten by the better man?
At least we know now why he said everyone he spoke to thought he had won.He only asked his Mum and Dad!

I think this episode is fascinating really interesting especially hearing the respective corners i think McCracken is great says all the right stuff to Carl. I love after the fight and Carl looks gutted like he is about to cry ans somebody says when will you be ready for the press conference? Carl almost like a kid goes do i have to go? Tere is a silence nobody not even Mick wants to say anything then Mcracken just goes well ye theres nothing wrong so i would go if i was you in come on get off your arse stop sulking way.


Great epsidoe

You're moving away from your original question there. I'm saying that Froch knew it was a negative, but didn't want to give Kessler confidence.

what a great show this is! i didnt think this would be anywhere near as good as 24/7 but it is miles better! hope they bring out a dvd boxset when the tournament ends.

also think mcracken is a great trainer, dont bullshit or pussyfoot around just tells it as it is like i have seen so many times in fight camp 360. just wish froch would listen to him abit more.

Great episode, great series. Can see where Froch inherited his physique from - his dad from back in the day!

McCraken does say all the right things but the problem is he needs to make Carl listen - that would be the sign of a great coach.

I know it was but a snapshot, but Hennessy looked sadly out of his depth with the big boys. The fact that he mentioned after the press conference that he COULD'VE made a big thing about them back tracking on the Abraham fight shows that he knows he SHOULD'VE.

Kessler seems a great bloke. As does AA. And Froch knew he hadn't done enough to win.

But yes, it's a fantastic series. I could watch it for hours.
