Delluded statement from Froch.

at least he admitted he knows he gets gift decisions in nottingham.

arrogant *****.

 

Calzaghe never left Great Britain until he fought an old and faded Hopkins. Calzaghe never fought the level of fighters Froch has been fighting on a consistent basis.

I agree with Froch on this no question.

 

Froch has earned the right to say whatever the **** he wants in my book, even if he isn't right.

 

Froch was gifted a decision against Dirrell and still whined about it after. Man is a great fighter but he is an antagonistic *******.

 

No testing Ironchin.:nono
That would make it fair.

 

I think he has every right to make those comments.

His record does stand up against any of those other boxers, he's fought every single ****ing guy out there and a lot of them are quality.

Froch himself said he doesn't claim to be better than them, just have a better record. That's a valid argument.

 

Prizefighter in self-confidence shocker!

 

Because a lot of the Bute fans were admittedly new to boxing and Bute fans first(nothing wrong with that:nono) they were quite upset at what they deemed "unsporting behaviour" a couple years before the fight when Carl pulled that self-confidence ****.

He's an absolute disgrace to the whole of mankind.As a whole.

 

How?

Calzaghe has wins over Eubank, Kessler and Hopkins which are better than any of Froch's wins.

Froch's best win is Bute, who was clearly not as good as was made out. I would put the Bute win on a par with Calzaghe's win over Jeff Lacy.


Eubank has wins over Benn (and a draw), 2x wins over Watson, win over undefeated Rocchigiani

Benn has wins over Mclellan(extenuating circumstances though), a draw with undefeated Eubank (which some felt he won), Malinga, a first round KO of Barkley, KO'd Dewitt.

I agree with him on the others, Collins has wins over Eubank, but he fought Benn when Benn was finished.

I like Carl Froch a lot, he's exciting and is willing to lay it on the line. But I have to disagree with him here, interesting point about Kessler, I felt he lost to Dirrell personally and if that fight was in Michigan, he would have lost.

 

I agree. :good

He definatley doesn't get the recognition back home like the others on the list have had. Most Brits have no idea who is is, only hardcore fans and guys form Nottingham. :-(

It's nuts, he's 3 time super middle weight world champ!

 

Err and whose record from those is better than Froch's?

 

Kessler beat Froch pretty fair, I think Froch has a big chip on his shoulder cause fighters like Khan & Haye have made tonnes more money than him. I suppose i would be too cause I think Froch is better than Khan & Haye.

But I don't put him up there with Eubank, Benn & Calzaghe. Maybe after he retires we can look at his career in perspective and see where he fits.

 

Froch fought 5 unbeaten fighters - Lucien Bute, Andre Dirrell, Jean Pascal, Albert Ryabeki and Allan Page

Calzaghe also 5 - Mikkel Kessler, Jeff Lacy, Mario Veit, Tyler Hughes and Mark Delaney

Eubank beat 6 (all be it 3 of them were Debuting fighters )

Benn also beat 6 (1 debuting, the other 1-0)

Hatton only beat Urango and Tommy Peacock so theres 2

Collins beat 5

Hamed beat 5

Haye only beat 2

Khan also 2

So as impressive as Froch's record is if hes going on numbers he isnt that much better (Drawing with calzaghe and collins whilst being one upped by benn and eubank) and also Calzaghe has arguably tougher opposition when you factor in Eubank, Hopkins, Kessler, Lacy, Prime Reid, Mitchell, Brewer etc.

Froch getting a little too big for his britches

 

I like Froch but that is bull****.
