    I know a lot of Irish vernacular, and implement it regularly in my vocabulary. my favorite is tinker!

    But no, I'm not Irish (my grandparents on pop's side came over here on the boat from Ireland around the turn of the century, though. . .) I'm a yank! But I have ****stani roots as well cause I spent most of my childhood there (my pops worked at the US embassy in ****stan).

    Ok, so I looked it up, and it's not even Irish vernacular. . . It's English vernacular; essentially it just means a "dick head."

    Memorize this phrase; it will come in handy:

    "Would you like fries with that?"

    Froch probably has the best resume of any fighter (win or lose) over the past 3 years. He didn't win them all, but he has balls of steel.

    No, actually if anything Froch is a bit underrated. For the last 4 + years Carl has fought only the cream of one of the deepest and definitely toughest divisions in the sport.:deal

    Agreed. I only have him losing 2 against Ward and Dirrell. I had him beating Kessler 6 rounds to 4 with 2 even.

    Carl Froch is an example of a seemingly crude fighter who has far more talent than meets the eye. This is the reason why despite "throwing caution to the wind and brawling" he has beaten fighters who appear to be far more technically proficient than himself. With the exception of the Ward fight he has held his own against every man put in front of him including against Kessler (who I thought he beat).

    Mayorga did it against Forrest.
    Peter did it against Toney in their rematch.
    Margarito did it against Cotto*
    Chavez did it against Taylor.

    Froch is not overrated, he's a simpleton, we get it but considering his difficult schedule and how successful he's been I'm more inclined to calling him underrated.

    He has a crude style that appears to have many flaws.

    Yeah its English but I'm sure its used in Ireland just the same. I didn't realize you're a yank. But yes that's what it means, cheers mate!
