Anyone else thing Froch's obsession with Haye mirrors that of STRONGY? Listening to the bluff, bluster and bravado, it's not hard to imagine they're the same person and, with constant references to lack of respect coupled with that big nose of his you can see how Froch/Strongy got that chip on his shoulder
Part of the banter between Groves and Froch was which one of them is better mates with David Haye.  You were a bit off the mark there with that post in all respects which isn't unusual.
Back to have your ar$e handed to you again STRONGY?
Really beginning to think you're just a stupid, stupid little man!
I'd like to see you going up against 8 or 9 posters.

As to your last post it's hot air and childish insults.  You were having a go at Froch and then me when you really didn't know what your were talking about.  That's the fact here.  

You're a waffler of epic proportions.
8 or 9 posters against one Yorkshireman...it's not fair. Go get some help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Hot air and childish insults" and this coming from the "meat trombone" guy. You silly silly SILLY little man.
1 Irishman against the rest. On your own all you are is hot air and mindless fallacious insults.

You're from Bradford aren't you?

Hardly a fortified position to start sling insults at anyone.

They both like UFC mate.......That's the common denominator !!......Boxing fans don't behave like this!!thumbsup 
No, they just punch defenceless drunks in pubs then come onto the boards claiming they've "still got it"
You're in a feisty mood today aren't you.......

Calm down buddy.......It's only a commercial..
Ah I was typing that one with a smile on my face...couldn't resist it...er...mate!

Tend to agree. Either way, they arhave had their warning. Let's be civil
I apologise Sean but I'd spent a lot of time typing my last retort (I say typing, I mean backspacing and correcting) and didn't want to waste it.

STRONGY's just being really mean to me 9using big four and five letter words) and I'm too immature to respond in any meaningful way. Maybe it's because it's Friday...but then again, I've been a git all week so perhaps it's something else.
Some might say It's the only way you can make a meaningful contribution also.......

Not me........But some...

Doesn't matter where I'm from when the quality of opposition is as poor as your particularly flaccid offerings.

And I'd be careful insulting Bradford. When the populace wakes from it's alcoholic and narcotic stupor, learns to read (after discovering fire and learning to walk upright) you'll be in for some stick. You won't understand most of it but trust me, it will be withering.

Ringwalks etc?

I'm sure they won't be pandering to the US (can't imagine there's the interest) but are we talking about 8pm start with Froch-Groves ringwalks 10.30ish, d'you think??

What if all these mis-matches go the distance? We'll be waiting for the main fight to start on Monday lunch-time

Surely Froch will says he's never changed his opinion on Groves in much the same way he never lost the Kessler fight

At the weigh-in they both looked up for the challenge. I have to congratulate Groves because his pre-fight comments and attitude have really helped to gain interest, promote, and bring excitement to this fight.

Most of the media coverage in recent days has been more or less in response to Groves comments and attitude.

Thought Groves looked nervous at yesterdays press c, and looked even more so today and very emotional. That being said I thought he looked a bit nervous against Degale and he ended up performing quite well.

But I would not be surprised if its an explosive first few rounds with Groves being stopped in the 4th or 5th...

I still think he only chance of winning is on the back foot, using his superior speed to jab and nick rounds... if he can do that all night then credit to him.

Froch's body posture was more relaxed when they were face to face at the weigh - in. Froch brought his whole body up close to Groves while Groves stretched his neck out towards Froch - which although bringing his head close to Froch created a space between their bodies.

That type of posture reminded me of the posture Groves adopted in the Groves v Degale fight - his body always seemed to be curved away from Degale - trying to create as much space between him and Degale, while having his shoulders and arms forward to try to catch Degale.
