    In an era where all we hear about is resumes, absolutely no one can slate Froch! And that's coming from massive Groves fan.

    Agree, so did Carl. Even in first fight it was neck in neck in Denmark.

    Froch had a fine career and was not afraid to fight anyone but having said that i thought Dirrell deserved the verdict in their bout

    Nothing to do with him beating Groves Jim, that's a different discussion.

    I mean his resume is solid. He never avoided anyone, it never took years to make a fight, he didn't have ridiculous excuses about corporate sponsors etc, he wanted to fight the best and got in the ring and gave it 110%. I wish boxers these days would do the same.

    It will be because of Rob mccracken. He never had a problem with him before that.

    He seemed bitter that he was "no longer in AJ's circle".

    Think froch as a person can be arrogant but in fairness he didn't duck anybody,his fights were generally exciting,plus he didn't have the exposure most fighters these days have,especially in the earlier years of his career,his fight with Taylor wasn't even broadcast in the UK till the next day,these days that would be ppv,don't always agree with his opinions but think he's more than earned the right to express his opinion

    Froch would have beat him on the night regardless. The way he started fight was amazing, behind a works class jab.

    In fairness he was told the first fight was going to be delayed about 4 days beforehand and went and had a blowout, then the next day or something got gold it was back on.
