    A few stories have got me thinking. I’ve always liked Carl Froch outside of the ring, he seems like an honest, down to earth, hard working guy.

    He had an entertaining fight against Pascal, but that’s all it was. One entertaining fight, he didn’t show that much ring knowledge to change the fight, he just started using his jab more.

    For him to say “My argument is not will Joe Calzaghe fight me because maybe I don't want to fight Joe Calzaghe. I might not give him the chance. Kelly Pavlik is a much bigger and more exciting fight than Calzaghe. I’d relish the opportunity” is ridiculous.

    He gets past Pascal in an entertaining but untidy fashion and now he’s saying Joe has to get in line for the belt he owned for over a decade.
    Froch should just earn the right to talk.

    If Froch can beat Kessler swinging that low left arm like a grandfather clock then he can talk.

    Froch didn;t say any of that until joe calzaghe came out and slated him, he basicaly called him a bum so i think the response from carl was justified.

    I been sayng this for months, but since you're a noob, I'll say it again. Froch needs to stay the **** away from all the guys he keeps calling out. That includes MIDDLEWEIGHTS Pavlik and Abraham. Any heavy handed fighter with decent fundamentals will beat 7 shades of **** out of Froch. Kessler might very well win every round, and Calzaghe --- please Carl -- shut the **** up.

    He has am pedigree, power, chin and a degree of ring smarts. I've always been a fan, but I fear he's too slow and has too little lateral movement at the top level.

    If you don't have the right info you make posts like this, carl wasn't calling out kelly pavlik top rank lou debella said that he thought froch would be a good fight for pavlik in the future and he thought it would be an exiting fight. All froch has said is he would be intrested in the fight as it would be a big fight.

    I think that froch smokes pavlik. Carl isn't slower than kelly and he punches harder. He does what kelly does but at a higher weight.

    I'm addressing more than just this one comment. I'm referring to the string of top fighters Carl Froch has yapped about over the past several months: Calzaghe, Kessler, Taylor, Pavlik, and Abraham have all been on his lips frequently. Every guy on that list would beat Froch 6 ways to Sunday. A couple would mangle him.

    No, Carl Froch has always talked ****. He is a B level fighter, with a A* level mouth. If he was to get in the ring with Calzaghe he would get owned every round. Because lets face it, he has two ways of fighting, using his jab, which seems to come in slow motion and is not backed up any good footwork, or go in for a tear up and leave himself compleatly exposed on his left hand side. Calzaghe would have a field day.
