    your right, but there is not many active fighters who are legends and froch wont ever be a legend unless he defeats kessler, ward, bute and possibly hopkins.

    Ward, Bute and avenge the loss to Kessler? That's legendary 168lber material right there.

    Won't happen though :deal

    i still think his win over a prime pascal was a monumental victory.a real war of attrition,incredibly overlooked by many so called aficionados already.there won't be another fighter from the british isles to match froch for grit and 'never say die' for many years to come.enjoy him while he's here.serious.

    Is this a joke? Fights with his hands down, arrogant, over rated power, very little boxing ability, not a great brawler, shall I continue?

    Fighters like Froch, win or lose, should be applauded for getting in there with the very best in their division. The guy deserves great credit.

    Conversely, fighters hiding away with some trinket, calling themselves a world champion, when everyone knows they are not, deserve to be vilified.

    Carl is a credit to himself, to britain and the boxing fans......but not a legend.
