    The truth of the matter is that Froch’s limitations is part of what makes him popular. Popularity and being the best or better than another fighter is not the same thing. If you do a poll in Denmark Kessler will come out top.

    How would a poll on a boxing forum full of boxing fans with the question being posed "Who was better?" be about who is more popular? Wouldn't that question be "Who do you like better?" ??

    I'm baffled as to how you think this is about popularity

    Because there is no rationale basis for thinking Froch is better than Kessler!

    greatest supermiddleweight ever? That is a little bit of overrating.

    Correct.

    It's a thinly disguised plan to try and enhance Joe's resume.

    I agree.

    He's got to be in the top 3 along with Joe and Roy.

    None of them would have beaten Ottke though. Ha!

    Not in Germany.

    Sven could have beaten a prime version of Mike Tyson in Germany.

    Did you see the Reid fight?

    Bika is his greatest win. He totally replaced him as p4p.

    yeh but if you were confident they were better than froch u'd have said they were better fighters than froch, but you opted for saying they were better technical fighters.

    I am merely pointing out why they are better with their better skills and technical ability. Think it is pretty clear.
