Carl Froch left Oleksandr Usyk baffled when he made a joke about the crowd at his rematch with George Groves.
Froch was in London at Usyk's media event to promote his upcoming world heavyweight title rematch with Anthony Joshua, which will take place at the 40,000-capacity Jeddah Superdome. And he attempted to include a quip about his own successes at the box office, which ended awkwardly due to the pair's language barrier.
It has become an inside joke in boxing circles for Froch to sneak in mentions of the time he and Groves fought in front of 80,000 fans at Wembley Stadium in 2014. He most famously did it with Floyd Mayweather in 2015, and has since made it a part of his brand.
