    Warriors went out when the likes of Gengis/Aexander died. Carl is a Boxer, not a Warrior.

    He talks himself up to much with this nonsense.

    Its not the fact that he uses it, its the fact that he repeats it ad nauseum

    They both overplayed the warrior card clearly. No problem with the term so long as it's used sparingly. Alas at times it seems like Froch was splitting a warrior with warrior.

    He is promotting a fight. As a boxing fan you are aware of every interview. Which is different to 99% of the country.
