Froch denied by late cancellation
Carl Froch
Froch had been looking to extend his winning run to 15 fights
Carl Froch's US debut was cancelled at the last minute after his American opponent Christian Cruz weighed in more than a stone overweight.

Unbeaten Nottingham super middleweight Froch had been due to appear in a high-profile undercard slot on Bernard Hopkins' world middleweight title bill.

All parties had agreed on Friday that the contest could be fought above the 12-stone super middleweight limit.

But the weight difference was deemed too great for the fight to go ahead.
