5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

IBF and WBA super-middleweight champion Carl Froch said that Ben Flower's punch on Lance Hohaia in the Rugby League Grand Final, needs to be treated "lighter" than an incident "on the street". The 37-year-old defended Flower's attack on Hohaia, saying that athletes run on "deep emotion" and that it "needs to be dealt with differently". This clip is originally from 5 live's Sports Panel on Friday 17 September 2014.
