Agree that if Froch is up for it and focused then he should/could win. Will be a great fight whatever, and the atmosphere should be excellent.

Sonny Bill Williams v Botha
If this fight is not bent then 6/5 Botha is an great bet. Before their fight got postponed Sportingbet were the only firm to price it up, they tend not to get much right but I didn't think they were far off with Botha 4/11 and Botha KO 4/5. Now a few have priced it up and all got SBW as the favourite (they have probably just copied each other), sadly there is no MOV market as yet. Having seen footage of SBW he looks exactly what he is, a part-time novice. He is obviously in great shape with decent power but technically he is very raw and a decent fighter would have a field day with him. Now Botha is old and fat and lost his last 3 but he has fought for the world title multiple times so he knows his way around a boxing ring. If he has anything left at all this is an easy nights work for him.
After all that he will probably take a dive and leave me feeling pretty stupid.

Completely agree with all of that. Smells though, doesn't it?

Sonny Bill Williams is an incredible athlete and a great rugby player. But you're right - he's not a boxer. Botha should have more than enough to stop him.

Yeah it is a bit wiffy. Weigh in tomorrow should give us an indication as to what shape Botha is in, something around the 250lb mark would indicate he is in decentish shape (for him).

254lbs. 21lbs lower than his last fight. Suggests he has taken it seriously.
