    Your off your head, for example Pascal was fantastic night Froch beat him, Froch was just better. I was there, great fight

    Froch would've beaten Cal***gy all day every day.

    The sheep botherer beat a washed up Eubank, split decision against Robin Reid ffs, Kessler was a reasonable win but he never fought him in Denamrk..

    Who other than that did he face? Lacy, just another hype job.

    A 123 year old Hopkins beat him despite what the judges said. Bika? Meh.

    Just look at his resume.. he really isn't that great. Talk of JC being an ATG is faintly embarrassing.

    He's still better than Froch.

    If he is, it's a damning indictment on all of our previous SMW's as Carl's never been an elite fighter.

    Thankfully the answer is that he's clearly not the best SMW we've ever produced.

    Not even close.

    Watson, Francis, Eubank, Calzaghe, and Benn were better.

    Froch clearly lost 8 or 9 rounds against both Taylor and Dirrell, and 9 or 10 against Ward. He even lost to a shot Kessler. Abraham was a sitting duck, blown-up middleweight midget with his hands over his face, flat feet and washed up; made for Froch's long-range prodding. A 45-year-old Glen Johnson beat the **** out of Froch with the right hand, and George Groves stood him on his head.

    Pascal was terrible. Not even a set of basic fundamentals.

    Froch has never been the number one in his division. That's the only knock against him, and it's a big one.

    It would of been. Possible fight of the decade. That said I'd slightly favour Benn to get to Froch before Froch got to him.

    Excellent fight t would of been though.
