Beat me to it.

Why didn't he just go running for 3 rounds?

[dave.woodhall]

I've never, ever seen anything like that before.

Have to question the "broken wrist" theory.  The guy didn't even wince when his right hand was held aloft by the referee for applause after the fight, nor when his corner were tugging at the glove on his left hand.  Surely he would have been in agony?

Oh dear.

[Dave Cooper please]

Without reading that link is it Audley not retiring?

Oh dear indeed.

[PaulWinch again]

It is.

This from the comments section is good:

Why do people insist on doing Audley down. It's not like he's ever hurt anybody. That last fight his opponent just walked up and punched him right in the face. Audley never punched him - Audley would never dream of punching anyone. Why can't we all just leave him alone?

[PaulWinch again]

In all seriousness, I'd just rather he didn't get hurt he has a family to care for. He's got nothing to gain, he keeps on banging on about 'climbing the mountain', but he's failed so many times now. He's achieved everything he can and he should stop and be happy with his career.

Froch has gone a bit far with some of his prefight comments.

Froch has gone a bit far with some of his prefight comments.

Froch rates himself highly. His talent however doesnt quite come up to the mark at the highest level.

[PaulWinch again]

It's more that he's saying -

- When I am smashing his face in, I am going to go for the kill," he told the Star. "I want to do him some damage. I will kill him if I have to. I want to put the record straight.

That's too far.

PPV sales not too good then?
