A Sell-Out Evening at ALEA with a True Boxing Great
Nottingham was buzzing on Wednesday night as fans packed into the ALEA Casino to welcome home one of Britain’s greatest ever fighters — Carl “The Cobra” Froch.
And from the very moment he arrived, it was clear this was going to be a night to remember.
A Champion Outside the Ring
Froch may have retired from boxing, but his world-class commitment and connection to fans hasn’t faded one bit.
He delivered far more than anyone expected:
Signed every autograph handed his way ✍️
Posed for endless photos — including selfies, fan groups and repeat requests 📸
Chatted with guests

like old friends rather than ticket holders 🤝
Just like in the ring, Froch left nothing on the table.
Stories, Laughter & 80,000 Fans… Again!
The highlight of the evening was the Q&A — and Carl delivered a perfect blend of insight, honesty, and humour.
He shared stories:
New tales from the glory years
Behind-the-scenes training secrets
Career-defining moments
And yes… the legendary 80,000 at Wembley moment! 😂
From the Groves knockout to chopping trees in camp, everyone left knowing something they hadn’t before.
A Host With a Touch of Class
A huge credit must also go to Sky Sports’ Pete Graves.
Bright, warm and razor sharp, Pete guided the evening perfectly — helping reveal Froch’s personality while keeping the room engaged throughout.
It was a partnership that worked beautifully.
A Team Effort
Events like this don’t happen on their own.
So applause belongs to:
The organisers and planners behind the scenes
The team running the room, production and hospitality
And most importantly — the fans who filled every seat
To turn out midweek and bring that kind of atmosphere shows the love the city still has for Froch — and he felt it.
Until Next Time, Nottingham
As the final selfies were taken and fans headed home, there was one message on everyone’s faces —
This was a night worth remembering.
To Carl, Pete, the staff and every supporter who joined us —
Thank you for making it special.
Safe journeys home, and don’t wait too long before joining us again.
